    This procedure outlines the system of control and inspections to be adopted for the fixing on site of tiles and mosaics.

    2.    PROCEDURE

    .1    A method statement shall be prepared and approved. It shall include:

    i)    Acceptance conditions for laying e.g. maximum moisture content of substrate, levelness, soundness, cleanliness, environment.

    ii)    Surface preparation and bonding e.g. bonding agent, bed mix proportions, adhesives.

    iii)    Specific requirements with regard to setting out, alignment of joints and cutting.

    iv)    Method of protecting finished work.

    v)    Source documents for tiles, adhesive

    .2    A sample of tiles shall be prepared on the wall in accordance with the specifications laid down in the contract and approved by the Consultant.

    .3    Storage of tiles:

    i)    Tiles shall be delivered to site palletised, on a clean hard surface free from contamination by mud or surface water.

    .6    Site operatives must observe the following while fixing tiles in addition to the specifications laid down in the contract document.

    i)    In the case of internal wall tiles, the setting out course or layout course is established.

    ii)    The level and events of the wall surface should not exceed the allowable tolerance as specified in the contract. Any such defect should be rectified before proceeding further.

    iii)    While setting out for floor tiling, establish a datum level for the finished floor and control the overall level of the finished floor by means of series of spot levels. The Site Engineer will involve Consultant’s representative while fixing levels.

    iv)    Avoid cutting tiles as far as possible. If cutting cannot be avoided locate cut tiles where they will be least noticeable, if in doubt refer to specification.

    v)    The sequence of fixing tiles shall be as follows unless specified otherwise in the contract:

    • Floor tiles – from the centre of room
    • Internal walls – Upward from the setting out course up to the specified height (in case of false ceiling) otherwise from top and downwards up to starting level.
    • External walls – always from top to bottom covering one horizontal strip after another but preferably to be done in bays.

    vi)    The mortar or adhesive is spread on the surface using a trowel or blade in thin layers as specified.

    vii)    Before placing the next tile take care to allow correct joint width by placing the correct spacers in all corner joints.

    viii)    Do not start joint grouting work till tiles are properly fixed to the surface. Normally the time period varies between 24 hrs to 48 hrs.

    .7    Protection and Cleaning:

    i)    Protect external tiling and mosaics from rain and sun until the bed and joints have set. Continue the protection for the period specified.
