This document (prEN 13364:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 246 “Natural
Stone”, the secretariat of which is held by UNI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 13364:2001.
— A complementary experimental method is integrated and concerns the slot-blade fixing system.
This document is one of the series of standards for tests on natural stone.
Test methods for natural stone consist of the following parts:

ii) a metallic profile placed in a slot located in one of its sides and measuring the breaking load of the
specimen.

method (see Figure 3).
6.10 A room or chamber in which the temperature of the air can be maintained at (20 ± 5) °C.
7 Preparation of the specimens
7.1 Sampling and position of bedding
The sampling is not the responsibility of the test laboratory except where specially requested.
The position of any bedding or anisotropy shall be indicated on each specimen by means of at least two
parallel lines.
7.2 Test specimens
7.2.1 General
The test can be carried out as an identification test or as a technological test.
Identification tests are tests carried out when the use of the stone with respect to the position of the
planes of anisotropy and the thickness and surface finish of the elements in the cladding are not known.
Technological tests are those carried out when the use of the stone with respect to the position of the
planes of anisotropy and the thickness and surface finish of the elements in the claddi
