29、ied rate to the centre of the tile, the point of application being in contact with the proper surface of the tile.5 Apparatus5.1 Drying oven, capable of being operated at (110 5) C.Microwave, infrared or other drying systems can be used provided that it has been determined that equal results are obt
30、ained.5.2 Recording pressure gauge, accurate to 2,0 %.5.3 Two cylindrical support rods, made of metal, the parts in contact with the test specimens being covered with rubber having a hardness of (50 5) IRHD, measured in accordance with ISO 48.One rod shall be slightly pivotable (see Figure 2) and th
31、e other shall be slightly rotatable about its own axis. See Table 1 for relevant dimensions.5.4 Central cylindrical rod, of the same diameter as the support rods (5.3) and covered with the same rubber, for transmission of the load.This rod shall also be slightly pivotable (see Figure 2). See Table 1
32、 for relevant dimensions.Table 1 Diameter of rods, d, thickness of rubber, t, and overlap of tile beyond the edge supports, l1Dimensions of tile,L mmDiameter of rod,dmmThickness of rubber,TmmOverlap of tile beyond the edge supports,l1mm18 L 1000 57 Procedure7.1 Remove any loosely adhering particles
33、from the back of all test specimens with a stiff brush. Dry each test specimens in the drying oven (5.1) maintained over 105 C during at least 24 h, and let them cool until they reach room temperature. Test specimens shall be tested not later than 3 h after they have reached room temperature.7.2 Pla
34、ce a test specimen on the support rods (5.3), with the glazed or proper surface uppermost so that the test specimen projects by a length l1(see Table 1 and Figure 1) beyond each support rod.7.3 In the case of reversible tiles, such as unglazed ceramic mosaic tiles, it does not matter which side of t
35、he tile is uppermost. For extruded tiles, place the test specimen so that the projecting ribs are at right angles to the support rods. For all other rectangular tiles, place the test specimens so that the longer side, L, is at right angles to the support rods.7.4 For tiles with a relief surface, pla
36、ce a second layer of rubber, of the appropriate thickness given in Table 1, on the central rod (5.4) in contact with the relief surface.7.5 Position the central rod equidistant between the support rods. Apply the load evenly in such a way as to obtain a rate of increase in stress of (1 0,2) N/mm2per
37、 second; the actual rate per second can be calculated by Formula (2) given in Clause 8. Record the breaking load F.8 CalculationUse only the results for test specimens that break within a central portion of length equivalent to one third of the distance between the supporting rods to calculate the m
38、ean breaking strength and the mean modulus of rupture. A minimum of five acceptable results is necessary to calculate the mean value.If there are fewer than five acceptable results, a second sample shall be tested consisting of twice the number of tiles. A minimum of 10 acceptable results is then re
39、quired to calculate the average value.The breaking strength, S, expressed in newtons, is calculated by means of Formula (1):SFlb=2(1)whereF is the breaking load, expressed in newtons;l2is the span between the support rods (see Figure 1), in mm;b is the width of the test specimen, in mm.DIN EN ISO 10
40、545-4:2014-11 EN ISO 10545-4:2014 (E) 6 The modulus of rupture, R, expressed in newtons per square millimetre, is calculated by means of Formula (2):RFlbhSh=3232222(2)whereF is the breaking load, expressed in newtons;l2is the span between the support rods (see Figure 1), in mm;b is the width of the
41、test specimen, in mm;h is the minimum thickness of the test specimen measured after the test along the broken edge, in mm.The calculation of the modulus of rupture is based on a rectangular cross-section. In the case of tiles with variable thickness along the broken edge, approximate results only ar
42、e produced. The shallower the relief, the more exact are the approximations.Record all individual results.Calculate the mean breaking strength and the mean modulus of rupture of the sample as the mean of the acceptable results.9 Test reportThe test report shall include the following information:a) r
