1、Designation: C502 09C502 16Standard Test Method forWedging of Flat, Rectangular Ceramic Wall and Floor Tile1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C502; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last

2、revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the wedging or deviation from rectangularity of flat, rectangular wall and flo

3、ortile. The test method covers tile as defined in Terminology C242.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

4、It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatorylimitations prior to use.2.

5、acial Dimensions and Thickness of Flat, Rectangular Ceramic Wall and Floor Tile3. Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 wedging of tilethe difference between two spaced measurements of the length or width of a tile, expressed as apercentage of the distance between points of measurements.3.2 For the defin

6、ition of major and minor facial dimensions see Test Method C499.4. Significance and Use4.1 Tile are normally pressed in dies having true 90 angle construction. However, minor variations in die fill, compactingpressure, and heat treatment can result in finished tile with acute and obtuse angles. This

7、 out-of-squareness results in a differencein length of opposite sides, and the tile may have the appearance of a keystone or wedge.4.2 Excessive wedging presents difficulties in the installation of tile. This test method provides a means for determining thedegree of wedging.5. Apparatus5.1 An appara

8、tus as shown in Fig. 1 or other suitable apparatus. The dial gage (B) is used for measuring rectangularity.5.2 A calibrating plate made of steel or aluminum of accurate dimensions and with straight, flat sides.6. Test Specimens6.1 At least ten tile specimens shall be selected at random from the lot

9、to be tested. The specimens shall be brushed to removeall adhering particles of clay and sand.7. Procedure7.1 Select an apparatus of the appropriate dimensions so that, when a tile is placed in the apparatus, the locating studs are 5 mmfrom each corner of the side adjacent to the side being measured

10、. The plunger of the gage (B) shall also be 5 mm from the cornerof the tile on the side being measured.1 This method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C21 on Ceramic Whitewares and Related Productsand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee C21.06on Ceramic Tile.Current edition approv

United States17.2 Fit the appropriate calibrating plate exactly into position on the instrument and adjust the gauge reading to a suitable knownvalue.7.3 Remove the calibrating plate, place the proper surface of the tile on the lo

15、cating studs in the apparatus, and record the gagereading 5 mm from the corner. Rotate the tile, if square, to obtain four measurements. Repeat this procedure for each tile. In thecase of oblong tiles, use separate instruments of the appropriate dimensions to measure lengths and widths. Measure to a

16、n accuracyof 0.1 mm.7.4 For oblong tiles with longer edge 60 cm, and ratio between longer edge and shorter edge 3, only dL and percent wedgingshall be dLS determined (see Fig. 3).8. Calculation8.1 Calculate the percentage of wedging or deviation from rectangularity as follows:Wedging is expressed as

17、:dL 31005% (1)where:L = length of the adjacent side of the tile andd = deviation of the outer corner of the side of the tile (measured 5 mm from the corner) from the inner side of the calibratingplate.8.1.1 In millimeters, d, for square tiles (see Fig. 2) and deviation dL and dS for oblong tiles (se

Precision and Bias10.1 Precision is being determined.10.2 Bias depends almost entirely on the accuracy of the measuring devices and care taken to set up the equipment.
