Sets out the procedure for determining the resistance of a soil to penetration by a flat ended rod of 16 ±0.2 mm diameter driven with a 9 kg mass, dropping 600 mm; use of the method is limited to granular soils with a maximum particle size not exceeding 2 mm, and a layer thickness of at least of 450 mm.

Sets out procedures for the assessment of internal wall and ceiling linings according to their tendency to ignite; their tendency to release heat once ignition has occurred; their tendency to cause flashover; their tendency to release smoke; and their contribution to fire growth.

Specifies requirements for the testing, interpretation of test results, and installation of penetration sealing systems and control joints sealing systems in fire-resistant elements of construction.

Specifies the use of mechanical pressurization or depressurization of a building or part of a building.

AS/NZS 1546.2 aims to: 1. Provide a set of performance statements that form a base against which any waterless composting toilet, conventional or innovative, may be assessed. 2. Provide manufacturers of waterless composting toilets with a performance evaluation test that will confirm the conditions under which it will function best (this will enable certification bodies to check that a product conforms to the Standard). 3. Ensure that the operation and maintenance of a waterless composting toilet is done in a safe manner that meets basic health requirements given that it involves the removal of composted or partially composted material.

This Standard adopts ISO/IEC 14763-2:2019 with modifications for Australia and New Zealand, which specify requirements for the planning, installation and operation of telecommunications cabling and cabling infrastructures including cabling, pathways, spaces and telecommunications bonds (other than that specified in AS 30129) in support of generic cabling standards and associated documents.

The objective of this Standard specifies generic cabling within premises that comprise single or multiple buildings on a campus; it covers balanced cabling and optical fibre cabling.

This Standard provides safety rules for optical fibre communication systems and associated materials and equipment.

The objective of this Standard specifies requirements that are common to the other parts of the AS/NZS 11801 series or ISO/IEC 11801 series. Cabling specified by this Standard supports a wide range of services including voice, data, and video that may also incorporate the supply of power.
