ELOT TS 1501-03-07-04-00 Wall covering with marble, granite and natural stone slabs

The ELOT TS 1501-03-07-04-00 specification refers to the covering of exterior or interior walls of buildings with marble or granite slabs, which may be applied (provided the appropriate rock has been selected) with the following methods:

a) fixing with mortar for a maximum height of 3.00 m from the ground only in areas of the project where there are no significant temperature changes, heat shocks, always with the use of joints of at least 5 mm between the slabs and in areas where there is no pedestrian circulation;

b) fixing with special glues for a maximum height of 3.00 m from the ground on dry lining walls, with tiles of surface up to 0.09 m2 and thickness up to 20 mm only in indoor spaces with hygrometry W/N less than 5 gr/h, where W is the produced water vapours in gr/h and Ν is the air change rate in m3/h;

c) mechanical fixing of the slabs with special metal one-piece or adjustable anchor bolts on walls with the capacity to sustain the stress caused by the covering material.
