Keeping Standards up-to-date

Standards are living documents which reflect progress in science, technology and systems. To maintain their currency, all Standards are periodically reviewed, and new editions are published. Between editions, amendments may be issued. Standards may also be withdrawn. It is important that readers assure themselves they are using a current Standard, which should include any amendments which may have been published since the Standard was purchased.

Detailed information about Standards can be found by visiting the Standards Australia web site at www.standards.com.au and looking up the relevant Standard in the on-line catalogue.

Alternatively, the printed Catalogue provides information current at 1 January each year, and the monthly magazine, The Australian Standard, has a full listing of revisions and amendments published each month.

We also welcome suggestions for improvement in our Standards, and especially encourage readers to notify us immediately of any apparent inaccuracies or ambiguities. Contact us via email at mail@standards.com.au, or write to the Chief Executive, Standards Australia International Ltd, GPO Box 5420, Sydney, NSW 2001.

PREFACE

This Standard was prepared by the Standards Australia Committee BD-004, Masonry Structures, to supersede AS 3700—1998, Masonry structures.

This Standard incorporates Amendment No. 1 (May 2002) and Amendment No. 2 (December 2003). The changes required by the Amendment are indicated in the text by a marginal bar and amendment number against the clause, note, table, figure or part thereof affected.

The objective of this Standard is to provide minimum requirements for the design and construction of unreinforced, reinforced and prestressed masonry, including built-in components, for use in masonry applications.

The Standard is the result of a consensus among representatives on the Joint Committee that it be produced as an Australian Standard.

In the preparation of this Standard valuable assistance was given by organizations and individuals experienced in various aspects of the design and construction of masonry, and the Committee acknowledges their help.

Acknowledgment is also made of the assistance gained from the following documents and publications:

(a) Australian Masonry Manual, published by a joint committee of the Public Works Department, N.S.W. and the Association of Consulting Structural Engineers, N.S.W.

(b) Publications of the Clay Brick and Paver Institute; the Concrete Masonry Association of Australia Co-op Limited; the CSIRO Division of Building, Construction and Engineering; and the Department of Civil, Surveying and Environmental Engineering of the University of Newcastle.

Statements expressed in mandatory terms in notes to tables and figures are deemed to be requirements of this Standard.

The terms ‘normative’ and ‘informative’ have been used in this Standard to define the application of the appendix to which they apply. A ‘normative’ appendix is an integral part of a Standard, whereas an ‘informative’ appendix is only for information and guidance.
