About This Item
TS EN 1304 is the standard that defines clay roofing tiles for discontinuous laying and sets out their general specifications. In building-product terminology, it establishes a common technical frame for what a clay roofing tile is and which core product characteristics belong to its definition. Discontinuous, or overlapping, laying refers to the traditional roof-covering arrangement in which individual tiles are installed with overlaps rather than as a continuous sheet.
Where clay roofing tiles sit in roof-covering technology
Clay roofing tiles are ceramic building products made from fired clay. In roof coverings, they are used to shed rainwater and form a weather-resisting layer by overlapping adjacent units. Shape, dimensions, interlocking geometry, surface finish and manufacturing tolerances all influence how these tiles perform in service. In overlapping systems, the correct arrangement of individual tiles, together with roof pitch and supporting structure, governs the behaviour of the roof assembly.
What this standard covers as a document
- Defines clay roofing tiles.
- Sets out their general specifications.
- Applies to discontinuous, overlapping roof laying.
- Relates to associated test standards for properties such as water impermeability, bending strength and freeze-thaw behaviour.
- Standardises the technical vocabulary used to describe the product.
For that reason, TS EN 1304 is better understood as a product-definition and specification standard rather than an installation manual. It supports a shared technical language for designers, manufacturers and purchasers of ceramic roof tiles, while the detailed verification of performance is addressed through the referenced test standards.
