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.

The objective of this Standard specifies generic cabling for use within industrial premises, or industrial areas within other types of premises, which can comprise single or multiple buildings on a campus; covers balanced cabling and optical fibre cabling.

The objective of this Standard is to specify generic cabling for use within office premises, which can comprise single or multiple buildings on a campus; covers balanced cabling and optical fibre cabling.

The objective of this Standard is to specify generic cabling for single-tenant homes. A home can contain one or more buildings or can be within a building that contains more than one home; covers balanced cabling, optical fibre cabling and coaxial cabling.

Provides a standard format for cabling requirements used in tender and construction drawings; provides basic specifications for identification and recording of components, during design and at the time of installation in order to aid in the administration of application, maintenance and reconfiguration of telecommunications cabling infrastructure.
