This Standard sets out a qualitative method for the detection of sugar in aggregates intended for use in the production of concrete. A positive reaction is given by one part of sugar in one thousand parts of aggregates. No visible reaction is given by one part of sugar in 10 000 parts of aggregates.

This Standard was prepared to supersede AS/NZS 4456.0:1997. The test methods are grouped into the following categories: - Tests that relate to minimum performance requirements. - Tests that are optional and intended to be specified as appropriate.

This Standard sets out the method for the determination of the degradation factor of rock spalls and drill cores. The test categorizes the fines produced by self-abrasion in the presence of water.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the polished aggregate friction value (PAFV) of naturally occurring or artificially produced materials which are intended to be used as, or to be a source of, pavement surfacing material.

This Standard sets out methods for testing masonry units, segmental pavers and flags, to determine their resistance to salt attack.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the water absorption properties of masonry units, segmental pavers and flags.

AS ISO 15817:2023 adopts and modifies ISO 15817:2012, which specifies the essential safety requirements for remote operator control systems used on earth-moving machinery as defined in ISO 6165. It is not applicable to autonomous control systems that enable a machine to work without the assistance of an operator, nor does it apply to the remote control of attachments on non-remote controlled machines

Sets out the procedure to classify aggregate according to its susceptibility to alkali attack leading to expansive reactions in concrete.

This Standard sets out the method of examination for pitting, due to lime particles, of masonry units, segmental pavers and flags.
