Austroads Test Methods and Specifications
This document provides a hyperlinked list of the Austroads Test Methods and Specifications.
Aggregate Shape by the Ratio of Greatest to Least Dimension
This method sets out the procedure for assessing aggregate shape as a ratio of Average Greatest Dimension to Average Least Dimension. This test method can also be downloaded as a 
Random Selection of Sampling or Test Locations
This test method describes the procedure for establishing sampling locations, sampling intervals or test locations within a lot, which has been defined in terms of mass, volume, perimeter or batches. The method contains procedures which allow…
Determination of Permanent Deformation Characteristics of Unbound Granular Materials by the Wheel-tracking Test
This method has been prepared as a complementary or alternative test to the repeated load triaxial (RLT) test for assessing the permanent deformation performance of granular material Wheel-tracking (as compared to RLT) better represents in-service…
Determination of Permanent Deformation and Resilient Modulus Characteristics of Unbound Granular Materials Under Drained Conditions
This method covers the determination of both the permanent deformation and resilient modulus of unbound pavement materials with a maximum particle size not exceeding 19 mm using repeated load triaxial equipment incorporating, static confining…
Absorption of Bituminous Binder into Aggregate
This method describes the procedure for the determination of the quantity of binder absorbed by an aggregate. The volume of aggregate is determined from its bulk particle density in a saturated surface dry condition. The volume of binder free…
Average Least Dimension of Aggregate by Direct Measurement (Nominal Size 10mm and Greater)
This standard sets out the method for determining the Average Least Dimension (ALD) of aggregate particles by the use of vernier callipers or dial gauge or a slotted gauge. The method is applicable to aggregate of nominal size 10 mm and greater for…
