Since it was first published in 1996, the Good Practice Guide: Tiling has been an essential reference for designers, specifiers, waterproofing applicators, tilers, building officials, students and building owners who wish to have a greater understanding of what makes a successful tiling installation.
This fully revised and updated version, specifically written for the Australasian building industry, carries on that tradition of practical, easy-to-read information with extensive use of photos and illustrations.
Its emphasis is primarily on the design and construction principles that need to be followed to ensure that the finished tiled surface is of high quality.
None of the components of a tiled finish - framing, substrate, waterproofing, adhesive, grout or tiles - can be considered in isolation from each other.
