This European Standard specifies a method to assess possible modifications of agglomerated stones under the effect of sudden changes in temperature (thermal shock) by immersion in hot water. After drying until constant mass is attained, the specimens are subjected to successive cycles, each formed by drying followed by immediate immersion in water. After 20 cycles, the specimens are visually inspected and compared with the reference specimen, and all visible alterations recorded. Finally, the mass and flexural strength changes of specimens after 20 cycles will be determined in comparison with the values of the same quantities of reference specimens. At present a DIN committee does not exist for EN 14617-6:2012 since the parties concerned have not shown any interest in work on the subject.
