PART 3 - INSTALLATION

3.1 INSTALLATION

A. Acceptability of Surface

1. Before installation of ceramic tile, the substrate surface cannot show variations in excess of:

09 3000-4

Floor Wall Dry set mortar 1/8" in 10' 1/8" in 8' Latex Portland cement mortar 1/8" in 10' 1/8" in 8' Epoxy 1/8" in 10' 1/8" in 8' Organic Adhesives 1/16" in 3' 1/8" in 8'

2. The substrate surface must be free of all loose dirt, oil, grease, wax, dust, or curing compounds. If the substrate contains these materials, sand blast, grind, or sand to remove the materials and scarify the surface.

3. Grind surface of concrete block behind tile for better adhesion.

B. Layout

1. Locate all movement or expansion joints prior to determining the layout of the tile.

2. Layout all tile work so as to minimize cuts less than one-half tile in size.

3. Layout all tile work so that cuts in both walls and floors are to be least conspicuous.

4. Align all floor and wall joints to give straight and uniform grout lines.

C. Installation Systems

1. Floor porcelain tile- where concrete subfloors are level or slope to drains: thin set, Latex- Portland Cement Mortar bonded in accordance with F 113-10 method of the Tile Council of America. Fill all joints with epoxy grout.

D. Grouting

1. Follow grout manufacturer’s recommendations as to grouting procedures and precautions.

2. Remove all grout haze, observing grout manufacturer’s recommendations as to the use of various cleaners.

3. Thoroughly rinse all tile work before and after the use of cleaners and chemicals, if required.

E. Protection of Tile Surface

1. Finished installation should be free of all chipped, cracked, defective or unbounded tile.

2. Cover all tile floors with heavy duty construction of Kraft paper masked in place to avoid stains of damage from construction traffic.

3. No foot or wheel traffic can use the floor for a minimum of 3 days, preferably 7 days.

4. Place large, flat sheets of wood in high traffic areas to protect newly tiled floor.
