Figure 1 — Dimensions of a modular tile 4 Requirements 4.1 Requirements for geometric characteristics 4.1.1 General All measurements shall be carried out in accordance with EN 13373 and all measured values of individual units shall fall within the required tolerances. 4.1.2 Requirements for dimensions, flatness and squareness The tolerances for sizes, flatness and squareness shall be as given in Table 1. Table 1 is not valid for modular tiles having natural cleft/riven faces, for which tolerances on dimensions, flatness or squareness shall be declared by the manufacturer.

4.1.3 Requirements for surface finish 4.1.3.1 General Surface finishes shall extend uniformly to the edges of the modular tiles. The surface finishing of some types of stones may typically involve the use of patching, fillers or other similar products for natural holes, faults or cracks; this is to be considered as part of the normal processing. In such cases the type of treatment as well as the type and nature of additional materials shall be declared. 4.1.3.2 Requirements for surfaces after surface finishing Surfaces shall be worked to achieve the specified finish and shall have a regular appearance as a result of the finishing process (e.g. making reference to samples, see 4.2.3). NOTE 1 Surfaces obtained by grinding are, for example: - rough ground surfaces obtained, e.g. by means of a grinding disk of grain size F 60; - medium ground surfaces obtained, e.g. by means of a grinding disk of grain size F 120; - fine ground surfaces obtained, e.g. by means of a grinding disk of grain size F 220; - matt finished surfaces obtained, e.g. by means of a grinding disk with grain size F 400; - highly polished surfaces obtained, e.g. by means of a polishing disk or felt. NOTE 2 Surfaces obtained by means of percussion tools are, for example: – bush hammered surfaces (see EN 12670:2001, 2.3.8)*; – trimmed surfaces: finish obtained by using pointed chisel and mallet or a grooving machine; – striated surfaces: finish obtained by using a claw chisel (percussion tool for roughening a surface, with the cutting edge consisting of several teeth of various size) or a ruling machine.

Whenever stone processing is likely to change the characteristics of the raw material (e.g. as a consequence of the type of processing or because the use of patching, fillers or other similar products for natural holes, faults, cracks and similar), then this has to be considered when determining the characteristics requested by this document. The following characteristics shall be declared where requested by this document or with reference to the use conditions. 4.2.2 Denomination The denomination shall always be declared in accordance with EN 12440 (meaning traditional name, petrological family, typical colour and place of origin). The petrographic name shall be declared in accordance with EN 12407. 4.2.3 Visual appearance 4.2.3.1 General This characteristic shall always be declared. The colour, veining, texture, etc. of the stone shall be identified visually, typically by a reference sample of the same stone suitable for providing a general description of visual appearance. The reference sample shall be provided by the supplier.

Daylight Figure 2 — Comparison between production sample and reference sample 4.2.4 Flexural strength This characteristic shall always be declared. The flexural strength shall be determined using the test method in EN 12372 or EN 13161 and the mean value, lower expected value and standard deviation shall be declared. NOTE An identification test as defined in EN 12372 or EN 13161 is usually carried out for the purpose of CE marking. However, where the surface finish of the delivered product is known, the test may be carried out with this finish, in accordance with the technological tests defined in EN 12372 or EN 13161.

NOTE 1 The selection of the stone is subjected to climatic zone and/or to codes of practice. NOTE 2 When the mean value of flexural strength decreases by less than 20 %, this should not be considered as significant because of the variability of natural stone. NOTE 3 The frost damage which a stone may suffer when installed in a building will depend on the climatic conditions of the place of use, the relative position in the building (which determines the degree of saturation) and the predicted service life of the building. Consequently, each country may feel it appropriate to introduce in the document a national informative Annex that may be used to determine the number of the freeze-thaw cycles to be carried out in the laboratory for a technological test. This number of cycles will be appropriate to a specific project and will help to provide guidance for the interpretation of the test results. 4.2.11 Thermal shock resistance This characteristic shall be declared where subject to regulatory requirements. The resistance to thermal cycles shall be determined using the test method in EN 14066 and the changes both in mass and in dynamic modulus of elasticity expressed accordingly. When the tiles are to be used in areas not subjected to critical thermal cycles, the resistance shall be recorded as "No performance determined” (NPD). 4.2.12 Water vapour permeability This characteristic shall be declared upon request, when the tile is to be used in a location subject to vapour control requirements and fixed by means of mortar or adhesives. The permeability shall be given by making reference to tabulated values in EN 12524. 4.2.13 Abrasion resistance This characteristic shall be declared, for tiles for flooring and stairs only, when subject to regulatory requirements or upon request. The abrasion resistance shall be determined using the test method in EN 14157 and the results expressed accordingly. 4.2.14 Slip resistance This characteristic shall be declared, for tiles for flooring and stairs only, where subject to regulatory requirements or upon request and when the roughness of the surface is less than 1 mm measured following EN 13373. The slip resistance shall be determined using test methods in EN 14231 and the results expressed accordingly. Whenever results indicate an insufficient slip resistance of tiles for stairs, then adequate provisions shall be adopted in order to improve this parameter. This may be achieved by mechanical reworking of the surface, or by inserting anti-slip products e.g. rubber profiles, carborundum strips, metal bars or similar. 4.2.15 Tactility This characteristic shall be declared, for tiles for flooring and stairs only, where subject to regulatory requirements or upon request. The tactility is expressed by a description of surface corrugation obtained by mechanical finishes.
