1.3.3 Characteristic value
Characteristic values are as follows:
(a) For strength properties, the value of the material property that is exceeded by 95°/a of the material.
(b) For coefficients of expansion and contraction, the value that is exceeded by 5% of the material.
1.3.4 Connectors
Bolts, nuts, screws, screwed rod, brackets, straps and thc like, used to fix Reinforced AAC members to supporting elements in the structure.
1.3.5 Design documents
Drawings and specifications that set out the work to be executed.
1.3.6 Declared value
The value of a particular property of Reinforced AAC. determined in accordance with one of the methods in this Standard.
1.3.7 Exposure enironments
1.3.7.1 Severe marine
Areas up to 100 m from a non-surf coast and up to 1 km from breaking surf.
NOTE: The distances specified are from the mean high-water mark.
1.3.7.2 Marine
Areas from 100 m up to I km from a non-surf coast and from 1 km up to 10 km from breaking surf.
NOTE: The distances specified are from the mean high-water mark. Sheltered bays such as Port Phillip Bay and Sydney Harbour are considered to be non-surf coast.
1.3.7.3 Industrial
Areas within 1 km of major industrial complexes producing significant acidic pollution. NOTE: There are only a few such regions in AustraIia for example. around Port Pine.
1.3.7.4 Moderate
Areas with light industrial pollution or very light marine influence, or both.
NOTE: Moderate areas include built-up areas within 50 km of the coast and more than I kin from a non-surf coast and more than 10km from breaking surf coast, including suburban areas of cities such as Melbourne, Adelaide and Hobart. many areas of Sydney. Perth and Brisbane, and many inland cities.
1.3.7.5 Mild
Areas more than 50 km from the coast, and not classed as industrial, which are subdivided as follows:
(a) Mild-tropical Areas more than 50 km from the coast and falling within the tropical climatic zone shown in Figure 1.3.7.
(b) Mild-temperate Areas more than 50 km from the coast and falling within the temperate climatic zone shown in Figure I .3.7.
(c) :fi!d-arid Areas more than 50 km from the coast and falling within the arid climatic zone shown in Figure 1.3.7.AS 5146.2 pdf download.
