First, tiling aesthetics
1. Paving aesthetic combinations:
Since ancient times, paving stone cutting is the art of artisans unlimited play. Paving stone should taste space needs change, should the occupants feel and change and it may be infinite space. With ceramic technology advances, not only the ancient stone paving skilled heritage, but also because of innovative textures allow residents to pursue space deep rich personality effects become possible for the designer's creativity provided material.
Paving tile is an art of line and surface, you can use different combinations of surface lines, creating the effect of aesthetic style of the space, a common combination Stones are:
A) to sew shop: General shop law, laying tile on the seam vertical or horizontal lines to play.
B) oblique Shop: Shop customary law, effective only for square tiles.
C) the word pattern: Tile Shop dislocation, as a separate word pattern.
D) a combination of shop: specifications, paving combination.
2, paving the aesthetic natural color:
Coudert special ceramics using the world's most advanced roller printing production process, it is possible to achieve a natural and smooth texture effects, strong product lines and color layering. When paving, paving the hybrid approach can ensure the best expression of the product results.
Second, tiling guidelines
Coudert special ceramic All products are comprehensive inspection by the national authorities, in line with national standards for environmental labeling products, won the national inspection-free products, China Famous Brand, China's space industry and other partners. Please be assured.
Seamless tiling
a) seamless brick because it is through straight cut / trimming treatment, a small gap between the bricks, so special because of the gap is small, more holistic, so many people want in the construction of a seamless tiling. In fact, this construction method is very appropriate for three reasons:
i. Since there are aspects of the tile length, straight angle, edge straightness deviations, etc., entirely without error these tiles do not exist.
ii. In the construction process will also have some errors.
. iii The most important thing is: any object exists thermal expansion and contraction, tile is no exception. The gap is too small, causing the tiles to the resilience of the environment deteriorated, due to temperature changes, will lead to squeeze another brick tile cracks, shorten the normal life of the tile.
b) Recommendation:
. i have to keep the seam seamless tiles, wall tiles left seam size in general should be about 1-2mm not less than 1mm can be used as reference material gas nail; tile left seam kept at a minimum size of 1.2 - 1.5 mm of between, generally 2-5mm; mainly on account of thermal expansion and contraction of cement and tiles.
ii. Special effects should widen the gap, as 3-5mm so on.
iii. If you have questions, please contact with sharp Ceramics Co., Ltd. Foshan City, a service center.
Application materials
1, caulks category
(1) No sand sealant applied to less than 3mm gap --------------------
(2) mildew sealant (sand type) -------- apply 3mmX5mm gap
(3) Stone sealant (grit type) -------- apply 5mmX12mm gap
2, the binder is divided into: resin-based adhesives and rubber-based adhesive
3. Construction Notes
1) construction of the base surface must be flat dry surface cleaning, no dust, no oil, can not have skin, powder off phenomenon.
2) When the construction of the wall using a 6mm mantle tooth knife tooth surface using a 10mm mantle knife, knife with a mantle depicts the texture tiling adhesive, making tiles and adhesive bonding to maintain adequate bond flatness and strength.
3) under the base surface and dry climatic conditions water absorption of the wall, it is recommended to wet with water base.
Option 4) pointing time, generally pointing tiling chosen time 24 hours later, after the tiles dry solid, pointing too early, it will affect the tiling, causing uneven or loose off.
5) color tile grouts and color close to, except for special effects. For example, do not use pure white with dark brick sealant, because the visual effect is prone to dark brick edges.
6) In general, light wall tiles and paving tiles suitable for use without sand, paving bricks and antique matt tiles suitable for use there is sand.
7) When the grout sealant extrusion scraping knife sewn into the seam until less than 0.5mm or less brick. 15 minutes later to clean brick. 10 hours after brushing waterproofing agent.
8) Construction conditions: ambient temperature of 5 ~ 40 ℃, bad weather should stop the construction.
4, caulks, adhesives using points
1) scientific ratio: 1: 4 cement ratio (using machine agitation at 1: 5 cement ratio) will be added to a clean container of water, the sealant (binder slowly pour).
2) reunion stir: stir until evenly without clumping paste and let stand 3-5 minutes, then stir once before using, stirring to be exhausted within two hours, if there solidification phenomena, can not add water mixing, must be discarded .
Third, acceptance
In the construction is completed, we recommend that you generally use the following test methods and acceptance, in line with the acceptance criteria can be considered acceptable:
1) the surface layer and the next layer of binding (adhesion) should be firm, without hollowing.
Inspection method: check with a hammer tap (Note: Where there are local hollowing single brick corner, and every natural room (standard room) cloth do not exceed 5% of the total count).
2) the surface layer of brick should be clean, clear pattern, natural color, flat seams, the same depth, surrounding straight. Crack-free plate, off angle and other defects.
Inspection methods: visual observation inspection.
3) trim at the surface layer adjacent materials and dimensions shall comply with the design requirements, the corners neat and smooth.
Inspection method: observation and examination with a ruler.
4) skirting the surface should be clean, level of consistency, with a solid, consistent out of the wall thickness.
Inspection method: observation and tap with a hammer and a ruler to check.
5) Staircase and stairs plate slit width should be consistent, tooth angle neat; adjacent stepping height difference should not be greater than 10mm; non-slip straight.
Inspection method: observation and examination with a ruler.
6) the slope of the surface layer of the surface shall meet the design requirements, do not pour the pan of water, no water; and floor drain, pipe junction should be tight and firm, no leakage.
Inspection method: observation, feet and water splashing or slope inspection.
7) paving brick flat, the level of error is less than 2mm.
Inspection method: observation or measurement-foot level.
