21、retariat of which is held by UNI. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2013, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by July 2014. Attention is drawn t
22、o the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 14411:2006. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are listed b
23、elow: inclusion of decorative pieces, trims and mosaics; no application of ceramic tiles in ceilings; consideration of technical specification for slipperiness; inclusion of mandated characteristic on tactility, when required; rearrangement and readjustment of evaluation of conformity clause accordi
24、ng to CEN template; modification of dimensional tolerances for group B tiles (Annexes G to L); elimination of previous Annex Q on “Additional European requirements on ceramic tiles“ (this information is already clarified in the body of the standard); Annex ZA: simplification of tables and revised co
25、ntent of simplified marking. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral
26、part of this document.

29、nal and/or external floorings (including stairs) and walls. Furthermore, it provides the level of requirements for these characteristics and references to the test methods applied (see Note) as well as provisions for evaluation of conformity and marking. NOTE The series of standards EN ISO 10545 des
30、cribe the test procedures required to determine most of the product characteristics listed in this European Standard. The series is divided into 16 parts, each describing a specific test procedure or related matter. This European Standard does not cover: ceramic tiles made by processes other than ex
31、trusion or dry-pressing; dry-pressed unglazed ceramic tiles with water absorption greater than 10 %; ceramic tiles used for floorings on external road finishes; ceramic tiles used in ceiling finishes or suspended ceilings. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are norm

42、t temperatures sufficient to develop the required properties, but can be formed by other processes (these are not covered by this European Standard). Tiles can be glazed (GL) or unglazed (UGL). 3.2 porcelain ceramic tile fully vitrified ceramic tile with water absorption of 0,5 % or less Note 1 to e

Tradi
46、tionally they were known as double extruded tiles or split tiles (precision) and single extruded tiles or quarry tiles (natural). Split tiles are produced as a double tile, which is split in two after firing. Split tiles are characterised by typical parallel ridges on their reverse. Quarry tiles are
47、 shaped by cutting a single column and are often subsequently dry pressed. Note 2 to entry: This European Standard classifies extruded tiles upon the different technical characteristics as listed in Annexes A to F and L. Note 3 to entry: Extruded ceramic tiles include the letter A in their classific
48、ation (see Table 1). 3.7 dry-pressed tile tile formed from a finely milled body mixture and shaped by pressing Note 1 to entry: This European Standard classifies dry-pressed tiles upon the different technical characteristics as listed in the Annexes G to K. Note 2 to entry: Dry-pressed ceramic tiles include the letter B in their classification (see Table 1). 3.8 spacer lug projection which is located along certain edges of tiles so that when two tiles are placed together, in line, the lu
