This Standard sets out the method for testing aggregates to determine the loss of mass due to disintegration when exposed to sodium sulfate solutions over repeated cycles of wetting and drying

The objective of the standard is to provide designers and suppliers with information on the properties of rock sources that may allow the supply of large rock blocks suitable for the protection of sea walls, river banks, dam facings and other structures requiring protection against wave action or erosion caused by flowing water.

Sets out procedures for the preparation, laying and fixing of resilient sheet and tile floor coverings in all forms including flexible PVC, semi-rigid PVC, hybrid modular, linoleum, rubber. Also applies to self-adhesive tiles. Gives details of work necessary to prepare subfloor surfaces, with procedures for laying resilient covering. Does not apply to the laying of synthetic or natural fibre carpet, carpet tiles, timber or cork products. KEYWORDS: sheet; tiles; preparation; laying; fixing

Specifies a spectrophotometric method for the determination of manganese content between 0.01 percent and 2 percent in all types of iron and steel.

Specifies a spectrophotometric method for the determination of aluminium content in the range of 0.002 percent to 1.4 percent aluminium in all types of iron and steel. The method uses a mercury cathode, followed by solvent extraction to separate interfering elements, with alizarin red S to produce a chromogen which is measured at a wavelength of 490 nm.

This Standard sets out a method for determining the flakiness index of an aggregate. The Method applies to aggregates having a nominal size not greater than 63.0 mm and having at least 80% by mass retained on a 4.75 mm sieve. The Method makes reference to a particle size distribution procedure which is required for determination of flakiness index.

This Standard sets out the method for the determination of the degradation factor of coarse aggregates. The test categorizes the fines produced by self-abrasion in the presence of water.

AS 1742.13:2023 specifies requirements for the signs, pavement marking and other devices to be applied to commonly used local area traffic management (LATM) schemes

​This Standard specifies test methods for the energy performance of incandescent lamps, both tungsten filament and tungsten halogen, that are used in general lighting service.

This Standard sets out the method of determining the water permeability of damp-proof courses and flashings.
