تأثير مقاس حجر الموزائيك على معاير الكسر و الامتصاص للكاشي الموزائيك

Abstract EN

This research study effect size of terrazzo stone on modulus of rupture and both surface and total absorption of pre-cast terrazzo tiles.

Specimens of tiles were prepared with the same type and different size (standard) of terrazzo stone.

Specimens of tiles were tested after curing and finishing at age 28- days according to standard methods to determine the modulus of rupture and both surface and total absorption of the tiles.

The results showed that there is objective relationship between size of terrazzo stone used in tiles and modulus of rupture, while both surface and total absorption of the tiles is proportional inversely with the size of terrazzo stone with slightly change.
