The objective of this Standard is to establish a method for the quantitative determination of the particle size distribution in a soil using an hydrometer.

The objective of this Standard is to determine the percentage of organic matter present in a soil.

This Standard covers the electrometric determination of the pH value of a soil-suspensionKEYWORDS: Soil; pH; Electrometric; Engineering

The objective of this standard is to determine water-soluble sulfate content of natural soil and the sulfate content of the groundwater.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the normal consistency of cement.

This Standard sets out a method for determining the indirect tensile strength of standard concrete cylinders, prepared in accordance with AS 1012.8.1.

This Method describes a procedure for determining the rate and magnitude of consolidation of soil when it is restrained laterally and loaded and drained axially, using either manual loading or automated equipment. It gives the most reliable results when used on saturated clay soils.

This Standard sets out the methods for determining the coefficients of expansion of masonry units, segmental pavers and flags. The coefficients of expansion estimated by these tests represent the total 15 year expansion of either kiln-fresh or non-kiln-fresh fired clay units. Provision is also included for the estimation of past expansion and of residual expansion to 15 years, of units of any age.

This Standard sets out methods of sampling masonry units, segmental pavers and flags for testing of a lot, for the test methods given in AS/NZS 4456.2 to AS/NZS 4456.19 inclusive.

This Standard sets out the method for determining moisture content, dry density and ambient density of masonry units, segmental pavers and flags.
