Grouts for Tiles - Determination of Flexural and Compressive Strength
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 12808-3 standard is a European standard that applies to ceramic tile grouts used for both internal and external tile installations on walls and floors. It specifically focuses on the determination of flexural and compressive strength of these grouts. The standard provides a test method that should be followed to measure the strength of the grouts accurately.
It is important to note that this standard does not include any performance requirements or recommendations for the design and installation of ceramic tiles. Its sole purpose is to provide guidance on how to assess the flexural and compressive strength of the grouts used in tile installations.
Additionally, while the standard primarily targets ceramic tiles, it also acknowledges that these grouts can be used for other types of tiles, such as natural and agglomerated stones, as long as these stones are not negatively affected by the grouts.
