Bibliography

This European Standard specifies materials, properties and methods of testing for unreinforced cement-bound terrazzo tiles which are factory made and sold ready to be placed.The tiles are intended for external use (including roofing applications) in pedestrian areas, e.g. walkways, terraces, commercial centres and swimming-pools.NOTEThis standard applies to ex-factory products and does not take into account the laying of the product.
