This European Standard specifies a method to assess the effect of freeze/thaw cycles on natural stones (see
EN 12670 for terminology, and EN 12440 for denomination). The standard contains provision for both a
shorter technological test (Test A) to assess the effect of freeze/thaw cycles on the relevant performance
characteristics and an identification test (Test B).
