This standard covers cement concrete flooring tiles of plain cement,
plain coloured and terrazzo types. Also, this standard can be used for testing of floor hardeners, say metallic or non-metallic types including Granolithic Floor flooring, Polished concrete flooring..
This talks about requirement of product for general purpose as well as Heavy duty floor purpose also.
Flatness of tile shall : convexity shall not exceed 1 mm.
Perpendicularity of tile shall: The edge of the tile shall not exceed 2 percent of the length of the edge.
Straightness of the tile shall : The gap between the thread and the plane of the tile shall
not exceed 1 percent of the length of the edge.
Wet Transverse Strength of tile / surface shall : Not be less than 3 N/mm2 ( 30 kgf/cm2 ).
Resistance to Wear of tile / surface shall be :
a) For general purpose tiles
1) Average wear : 3.5 mm
2) Wear on individual specimen : 4mm
b) For heavy duty floor tiles
1) Average wear : 2mm
2) Wear on individual specimen : 2.5mm
Water Absorption of the tile / surface shall : The average percentage of water absorption shall not exceed 10.
Hope this information will be useful in selection of concrete tile / freeazing the specification of - paver blocks, floor metallic floor hardeners, non-metallic floor hardeners, granolithic flooring, polished concrete, etc.
Many thanks to Google and Doc 89 from the information have been collected.
