Foreword
A complete list of British Standards, numbering over 9,000, fully indexed and
with a note of the contents of each, will be found in the BSI Catalogue which may
be purchased from BSI Sales Department. The Catalogue may be consulted in
many public libraries and similar institutions.
This standard makes reference to the following British Standards:
BS 12, Portland cement (ordinary and rapid-hardening).
BS 604, Graduated measuring cylinders.
BS 915, High alumina cement.
BS 2028, BS 1364, Precast concrete blocks.
BS 2648, Performance requirements for electrically-heated laboratory drying
ovens.
BS 3718, Laboratory humidity ovens (non-injection type).
BS 3846, Methods for calibration and grading of extensometers for testing of
metals.

an acceptable life from existing apparatus. Apparatus for tests included in the
original edition is specified solely in terms of rounded metric values, although
some of these dimensions will cover not only the preferred metric sizes coming
into use, but also existing inch sizes where these are not critical as indicated by
any tolerances specified.
Apparatus for tests which have not appeared previously in the standard are given
in terms of rounded metric values which generally do not relate to any inch sizes.
Values of stress in this standard are given in terms of the MN/m2, the preferred
multiple of the basic unit. Values thus expressed are, however, numerically equal
to values expressed in terms of the N/mm2, which is often chosen for convenience
of use (i.e. 1 MN/m2 = 1 N/mm2).
A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application.
Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity
from legal obligations.
