Provides background material to the Standard, indicates the origin of particular requirements and the departures from previous practice and explains the application of certain clauses.

Scope

The Standard was prepared for use in the specification and supply of all concrete, whether or not it is addressed in the scope and application of AS 3600.
It is not intended to apply to mortars or grouts unless these contain coarse aggregates.
Requirements for mortars for masonry construction are specified in AS 3700 and the methods for sampling and testing mortars in AS 2701.
Requirements for grouts to be used for the grouting of prestressing tendons in ducts are specified in AS 3600.
The supply of concrete by the premix concrete industry has been expressly but not solely contemplated in the preparation of the Standard.
It is not intended that this Standard take precedence over existing Australian Standards for the manufacture of specific concrete products.
The Standard is intended to complete the independence of AS 1379 from AS 3600. Due to the lack of synchronization in publishing dates, for many years concrete as a material relied on both AS 1379 and AS 3600 to one degree or another. AS 1379 is now a ‘stand-alone’ document for the specification and supply of concrete.
