Design documents shall set out the information necessary to construct the Reinforced AAC members and structures, including the following:
(a) Loads, exposure classification and required fire resistance levels (FRLs).
(b) Characteristic properties of the Reinforced AAC members, determined in accordance with AS 5146.2, upon which the design is based, including the following:
(i) Designation and size of each principal Reinforced AAC member.
NOTE: For example, this requirement applies to the designation, length, thickness and width of the principal Reinforced AAC panels, but not to make-up pieces.
(ii) Characteristic bending capacity (kN.m per metre width of each type of member) subject to uniform out-of-plane bending moment.
(iii) Characteristic shear capacity (kN per metre width of each type of member) subject to uniform out-of-plane shear.
(iv) Characteristic axial load capacity (kN per metre width of each type of member) subject to uniform axial concentric compression.
(v) Characteristic basic shear strength (kN of each type of member) subject to uniform out-of-plane punching load.
(vi) FRLs (minutes/minutes/minutes) of each type of member, subject to the conditions of a loadbearing fire test in accordance with AS 1530.4 and the specified method of installation.
NOTE: The test conditions defined by AS 1530.4 for determining the FRL of a Reinforced AAC member are more adverse than the conditions likely to occur in practice. For Reinforced AAC members that are non-loadbearing and supported at centres closer than 3.0 m, higher FRLs for structural adequacy may be predicted using AS 5146.2.
(c) Characteristic properties of AAC and reinforcement, determined in accordance with AS 5146.2, including the following:
(i) AAC mean dry density or density class.
(ii) AAC characteristic compressive strength.
(iii) Longitudinal steel reinforcement details,including number of bars,bar diameter, yield strength, location, cover and coating.
(iv) Transverse steel reinforcement details, including number of bars, bar diameter,yield strength, location, cover and coating.
(d) Principal dimensions of the Reinforced AAC structures, including the positions of supports, piers, openings, length of returns and all features affecting the strength and stability of the structure.
NOTE: For example, this requirement applies to the principal dimensions of walls, floors,facades and the like.AS 5146.1 pdf free download.
