PART 3 EXECUTION
3.1 EXAMINATION
A. Acceptability of Surfaces: Inspect surfaces to be tiled to ensure proper bonding can be
achieved, and to verify that surfaces are free of curing membranes, oil, grease, wax and dust.
B. Substrate Tolerances: Before tiling, inspect surfaces to be tiled to verify that the following
tolerances are not exceeded. If tolerances are exceeded, provide specified leveling coat to
achieve specified tolerances.
1. Walls: 1/8 inch in 8 feet (3 mm in 2.4 m) for dry-set mortar, epoxy and organic
adhesives.
2. Floors: 1/8 inch in 10 feet (3 mm in 3 m) for dry-set mortar and epoxy; 1/16 inch in 3
feet (1.5 mm in 1 m) for organic adhesive.
3.2 PREPARATION
A. Clean substrates.
B. Wet down or wash dry, dusty surfaces and remove excess water immediately prior to
application of tiles.
C. Prepare surfaces in strict accordance with instructions of manufacturer whose setting
materials or additives are being used.
D. Blending: For tile exhibiting color variations within the ranges selected during sample
submittals, verify that tile has been blended in factory and packaged accordingly so
that tile units taken from one package show the same range in colors as those taken
from other packages and match approved samples. If not factory blended, either
return to manufacturer or blend tiles at Project site before installing.
E. Layout: Determine locations of control and expansion joints before starting tile work.

Layout tile work to minimize cuts less than one-half tile in size.
1. Lay out work so that full tile or joint is centered on each wall and no tile of less
than half width need be used. Do not interrupt pattern through openings. Lay
out tile to minimize cutting and to avoid tile less than half size.
2. No staggered joints will be permitted.
3. Align joints in tile in both directions.
4. Make joints between sheets of tile exactly same width as joints within sheet.
5. File edges of cut tile smooth and even.
3.3 PROPRIETARY SHOWER AND WATERPROOFING SYSTEM
A. Install in strict accordance with manufacturer’s installation instructions. Consult
manufacturer’s current technical literature for proper design and installation
instructions.
3.4 INSTALLATION, GENERAL
A. Install tile materials in accordance with ANSI A137.1, other referenced ANSI and TCA
specifications, and TCA "Handbook for Ceramic Tile Installation", except for more
stringent requirements of manufacturer or these Specifications.
B. Cut and fit tile tight to protrusions and vertical interruptions and treat with a
compatible sealant as specified in Section 07 92 00. Form corners and bases neatly.
C. Work tile joints uniform in width, subject to variance in tolerance allowed in tile size.
Make joint watertight, without voids, cracks, excess mortar, or grout.
D. Prepare surface, fit, set, bond, grout and clean in accordance with applicable
requirements of ANSI standards and Tile Council of America.
3.5 THINSET METHOD
A. Apply mortar or adhesive with notched trowel using scraping motion to work material
into good contact with surface to be covered. Maintain 90 percent coverage on back of
tile and fully bed all corners.
B. Apply only as much mortar or adhesive as can be covered within allowable windows as
recommended by mortar or adhesive manufacturer or while surface is still tacky.
C. When installing large tiles, ceramics or mosaics, trowel small quantity of mortar or
adhesive onto back of each tile or sheet of tiles.
D. Set tiles in place and rub or beat with small beating block.
E. Beat or rap tile to ensure proper bond and also to level surface of tile.
F. Align tile to show uniform joints and allow to set until firm.
