Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers structural clay loadbearingfacing tile. Stru

3、ctural facing tile are tile designed for use ininterior and exterior unplastered walls and partitions of build-ings.1.2 The property requirements of this specification apply atthe time of purchase. The use of results from testing of tileextracted from masonry structures for determining confor-mance

4、or nonconformance to the property requirements (Sec-tion 6) of this standard is beyond the scope of this specification.1.3 Tile covered by this specification are manufactured fromclay, shale, or similar naturally occurring substances andsubjected to a heat treatment at elevated temperatures (firing)

5、.The heat treatment must develop sufficient fired bond betweenthe particulate constituents to provide the strength and dura-bility requirements of this specification. (See firing and firedbond in Terminology C1232.)1.4 The text of this specification references notes andfootnotes which provide explan

Classification4.1 Two types of structural clay facing tile are covered, asfollows:4.1.1 Type FTXSmooth-face tile suitable for general usein exposed exterior and interior masonry walls and partitions,and adapted for use where tile low in absorption, easilycleaned,

10、and resistant to staining are required, and where a highdegree of mechanical perfection, narrow color range, andminimum variation in face dimensions are desired.4.1.2 Type FTSSmooth- or rough-texture face tile suitablefor general use in exposed exterior and interior masonry wallsand partitions and a

11、dapted for use where tile of moderateabsorption, moderate variation in face dimensions, and me-dium color range are permitted, and where minor defects insurface finish, including small handling chips, are not objec-tionable.4.2 Two classes of structural clay facing tile are covered, asfollows:4.2.1
