When ASAA was launched in 2004 the Right Honourable Joe Hockey MP officially welcomed the formation of “An association which would represent the broad interests of the stone industry”.

ASAA is delighted to announce the release of the ASAA Natural Stone Design Manual, which is based on a publication produced by the Marble Institute of America (MIA). The contents of the ASAA manual have been extensively modified for local consumption, with MIA approval.

Architects and ASAA members can purchase the manual for $165 inc. GST. Non-members can buy the manual for $330. Purchasers also receive a CD.

The manual contains information on the geology of stone, standards & specifications, stone selection, testing and individual chapters on popular stone products. Installation, sealing, cleaning, maintenance, restoration and slip resistance issues are covered extensively.
