How we can check the following properties of tiles as per ISO 13006 or IS 15622 and using methods prescribed in ISO 10545 for Ceramic and vitrified tiles.

Straightness of edges or rectangularity
Maximum curvature of tile at center
Maximum curvature of tile at edges
Wapredge or edge curvature of tiles.

How we can perform the testing of tiles at actual project site, which methods you are using to determine the properties of tile at site.

I would like to inform about tiles testing, generally we not have an laboratory to check tiles at site so what we have to do is simple ,take out the tile sample randomly from vehicle keep it on table or leveled surface check for horizontal level any variation joints ,if it is minimum no need of worry if variation is more we will have an problem so better do the sample see practically.
Supplier has to agree some basic conditions before he supplies the tiles so that we will have on lesser issue.
Most of the test can't be done at site third party laboratory is too much costly .....most of the builders not check...
Slip resistance check has to be done compulsory for ceramic tiles......
