    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard sets out a procedure for preparing disturbed samples, as received from the field, for testing in accordance with the series of tests listed in AS 1289.0.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard sets out a procedure for preparing disturbed samples, as received from the field, for testing in accordance with the series of tests listed in AS 1289.0.The method does not cover procedures for sampling.NOTES: 1 Sampling and preparation of soils are described in AS 1289.1.2.1.2 The size of the samples from which disturbed soils samples are to be prepared depends on the tests that are to be carried out, and the maximum size and the relative proportion of coarse and fine material in the original soil.
