This Standard sets out the method for determining the friction value of a surface using the pendulum friction tester on test specimens prepared from naturally occurring or artificially produced materials which are intended for use as roadway pavement surfacing material.

Specifies method for determining methylene blue adsorption value (MBV) for natural sands, manufactured sands, crusher dusts and mineral fillers used in asphaltApplies to aggregate of less than 5 mm nominal size and may be used for both natural and manufactured sands. Tests the passing 75 μm fraction of a laboratory dried, unwashed fine aggregate sample. Test may be applied to fillers from baghouse fines or from ground limestone products or to mixtures of these two materials

This Standard sets out the method for determining by visual examination the amount of foreign material in coarse aggregate produced from recycled concrete aggregate.

AS 1141.3.1 defines requirements and specifies test methods for: taking samples of coarse and fine aggregates; subdividing samples; and packing and forwarding samples for examination and testing. Limited to aggregate and rock products with a nominal size of 75 mm or less. May be applied to non-stabilized soil product or soil and rock blends, provided that the maximum particle size is less than 75 mm

AS 1141.30.2:2022 sets out the method for preparing reference specimens that represent each of the visually distinguishable rock types present in a quarried source for use in AS 1141.30.1.

This Standard sets out the method for the determination of particle size distribution in coarse and fine aggregates by vision sizing systems (VSS). The VSS is limited by the discrimination of the optical system and, at present, is suitable for materials coarser than 1.18 mm.

This document defines the method for determining the percentage by mass of crushed and uncrushed particles in aggregate derived from rounded gravelThe test depends on visual assessment and is limited to particles retained on a 6.70 mm sieve.

Sets out the method for the determination of the amount of material finer than 75um in aggregate, by washing.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the particle density, apparent particle density and water absorption of aggregates substantially retained on a 4.75 mm sieve, by weighing in water.

This Standard sets out the method for the determination of the degradation factor of fine aggregate or the fine portion of a mixed aggregate. It categorizes the fines produced by selfabrasion in the presence of water.
