scope:

This European Standard specifies the characteristics and performance requirements for nonloadbearing (low non-resisting or non-resisting) or loadbearing (semi-resisting or resisting) clay blocks for the use in floor plates.

It defines the performance related to e.g. dimensional tolerances, strength, density measured according to the corresponding test methods contained in separate European Standards.

It provides for the assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) of the product to this European Standard.

This European Standard does not cover requirements for clay blocks foreseen for beam-and-block floor systems.
