Tests for the durability of natural building stones are not generally understood, and there are few British Standards covering the selection of stone. This report lists the relevant British Standards, and details the tests developed by BRE for assessing the durability of limestones, sandstones and slates.

Includes appendix on the preparation of sulphuric acid for acid immersion tests.
