Standards are documents written by International, Regional or National Standards Bodies (NSBs) and Standards Developing Organisations (SDOs) which set out specifications and procedures or processes.

Many NSBs and SDOs sell their own publications directly and can be referred to as “publishers”.  Intertek are a licensed distributor/aggregator who bring together multiple publishers for the benefit and ease of the community.

No responsibility is taken by Intertek Inform as to the ongoing technical validity of such a Standard, the responsibility resting with the referencing authority.

A superseded Standard is one, which is fully replaced by another Standard, which is a new edition of the same Standard.

Lapsed
A document that is past its comment period, but has not been superseded and where it is unlikely the project or product will go ahead.

At Intertek we supply Standards from many different publishers. Each publisher defines their own requirements relating to what users are licenced to do with their content.

Standards Australia have updated how their content can be used and require all distributors to ensure that users are not able to breach their licence requirements.

As a result, we have implemented technology that limits usage of Standards Australia content to only what is allowed in the licence agreement.

This includes :
 -            Access to open and to download the document for one user on one device. If you would like access for more than one user, please select the Multi User PDF option
-             Ability to print 2 copies
   
For more information on DRM details, see link for more information.
