Physical Properties
1. Water Absorption, DIN EN ISO 10545-3
The water absorption (E) gives the weight increase in % as compared
to the dry weight of boiled samples saturated with water.
1.1 Apparent Density, DIN EN ISO 10545-3
It gives the ratio between mass and external volume.
2. Modulus of Rupture, DIN EN ISO 10545-4
The breaking strength F is determined on samples by means of the
three-point load in N. From this, the modulus of rupture is calculated
according to the following formula.
Modulus of Rupture
3 · F · L
R = 2 · b · h

Important note:

Group
The “application possibilities“ are of course only recommendations, as the method and
quality of laying are decisive factors. Our recommendations are based on conventional,
professional laying. With increasing mechanical load as well as harder tyres a thicker tile
is required.
