DIN EN 1342/A20 PDF Download

The DIN EN 1342/A20 standard is an amendment to the existing DIN EN 1342:2013-03 standard, which pertains to setts of natural stone for external paving. The purpose of this amendment is to remove the National Annex in the previous version of the standard. The National Annex included requirements that were specific to national regulations.

By eliminating the National Annex, the DIN EN 1342/A20 standard focuses solely on the general requirements and test methods for setts of natural stone used for external paving. This ensures consistency and harmonization across different countries and regions. It also prevents any confusion or conflicts arising from national-specific requirements.

The amendment emphasizes the importance of adherence to the general requirements and test methods outlined in the standard. This includes factors such as the dimensions, shape, and surface characteristics of the natural stone setts. The test methods are designed to evaluate the durability, strength, and resistance of the setts to external factors such as weathering and wear.
