The site also contains features on member projects, technical articles, local and international press releases and links to major trade shows and magazines on natural stone including the ASAA official journal, Discovering Stone.

Architects can review every current Australian Standard that covers natural stone selection, installation or processing.
ASAA is a not for profit association. ASAA's objectives include the partial funding of two new standards which are being written by Committee BD 44 / 4, which is formed by four members of the association.
