Abrasion Resistance of Seamless Knitted Tubular Filter Fabric
This test method sets out the procedure to evaluate the abrasion resistance of seamless tubular filter fabric which has been pre-treated in ultraviolet light. This test method can also be downloaded as a 
Weave Stability of Seamless Knitted Tubular Filter Fabric
This test method sets out the procedure for determining the weave stability of seamless tubular filter fabric which has been pre-treated in ultraviolet light and a solution of calcium hydroxide. This test method can also be downloaded as a 
Determination of Opening Size of Seamless Knitted Tubular Filter Fabric
This test method sets out the procedure for determining the range of dimensions of openings in sample areas of seamless knitted tubular filter fabric for use over corrugated plastic subsoil pipe. This test method can also be downloaded as a 
Laddering, Unravelling or Deweaving of a Seamless Knitted Tubular Filter Fabric from a Cut End
This test method sets out the procedure for determining the likelihood of a seamless tubular filter fabric, which has been pretreated in ultraviolet light, to ladder, unravel or deweave when placed over a mandrel. This test method can also be…
Austroads Test Methods and Specifications
This document provides a hyperlinked list of the Austroads Test Methods and Specifications.
Surface Deviation Using a Straightedge
This method describes the procedure for obtaining a measure of the evenness of a pavement surface as determined by the deviation from a three metre straightedge. It is applicable only to the measurement of depressions in the pavement surface and to…
Verification Procedure for the Four-point Bending Test
The characterisation of the flexural stiffness and fatigue behaviour of bituminous mixtures in Australia and New Zealand is undertaken using a four-point bending (4PB) configuration. This document describes the procedures to be followed to verify…
Stripping Potential of Asphalt – Tensile Strength Ratio
This test method sets out procedures for the preparation of asphalt specimens and measuring the change in indirect tensile strength resulting from the effects of moisture and freeze/thaw conditioning. The results can be used to assess the propensity…
Laboratory Assessment of Asphalt Permeability
The test method outlines the procedure for determining the permeability of a water-saturated asphalt specimen in the laboratory using the ponding method. The test method was primarily developed for dense-graded, stone mastic and gap-graded asphalt…
Assessment of Retroreflectivity of Pavement Markings
This test method defines the procedure for performing field assessment of pavement marking retroreflectivity (night-time visibility) using a low angle retroreflectometer. It also defines a suitable minimum sampling requirement for all longitudinal…
