Slip resistance on dry and wet surfaces

When choosing ceramic tiles, an important criterion is slip resistance on dry (groups R9 - R13) and wet (groups A, B, C) surfaces.

Could you explain what these groups are and how to use them?

Waterproof grade W4

Do I understand correctly that if the water resistance grade W4 is indicated for concrete, then at atmospheric pressure a sample cylinder 150 mm high from such concrete will not allow water to pass through from a water column 30 m high (1 atm is equivalent to a balanced column of 10 m of water column. )? And if this concrete sample is at a pressure of 3.8 amt, then the height of the water column should not exceed 2 m?

Open and closed joints

Extruded tiles should only be laid with open joints. And tiles made by pressing can be laid with both open joints and closed joints.

What are we talking about here? What are open and closed joints? The seams between the tiles or something.
