EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of EN 772-4 testing. This European standard specifies a method for determining the actual density, bulk density and open and total porosity of natural stone masonry units.
The standard defines specific test methods for determining the actual and total density of natural stone masonry units. It also includes steps to measure the total porosity and open porosity of these units. Actual density is obtained by dividing the mass of material per unit by the unit volume. Total density is determined by dividing the volume of the material in the unit, including voids, by the unit mass.
Total porosity refers to the ratio of the entire void volume in the unit to the total volume. Open porosity determines the ratio of the total volume of interconnected and open voids in the unit to the total volume.
These tests are used to evaluate the structural performance, durability and other properties of natural stone masonry units. It is applied to determine the quality of materials to be used in construction projects and to ensure their suitability.
EN 772-4 provides a standard for testing and evaluating natural stone masonry units, increasing comparability between materials. The use of this standard plays an important role in the processes of evaluating the material properties of natural stone masonry units and determining the performance of these units in construction projects.
