INSTALLATION

Surface Preparation:
All surfaces should be between 4°C and 32°C and structurally sound, clean and free of all dirt, oil, grease, paint, concrete sealers or curing compounds.
Rough or uneven concrete surfaces should be made smooth with Latex Portland Cement Underlayment to provide a wood float (or better) finish. Dry, dusty concrete slabs or masonry should be dampened and excess water swept off. Installation may be made on a damp surface. New concrete slabs shall be damp cured and 28 days old before application.
Note: Latex portland cement mortars do not require a minimum cure time for concrete slabs. All slabs must be plumb and true to within 6 mm in 3 m. Expansion joints shall be provided through the tile work from all construction or expansion joints in the substrate. Follow ANSI specification A108.01-3.7 “Requirements for Movement Joints: Preparations by Other Trades” or TCNA detail EJ-171 “Movement Joints—Vertical & Horizontal”. Do not cover expansion joints with mortar.

A. Installer must verify that deflection under all live, dead and impact loads of interior plywood floors does not exceed industry standards of L/360 for ceramic tile and brick or L/480 for stone installations where L=span length.

B. Minimum construction for interior plywood floors. SUBFLOOR:

15 mm thick exterior glue plywood, either plain with all sheet edges blocked or tongue and groove, over bridged joints spaced 400 mm o.c. maximum; fasten plywood 150 mm o.c.

along sheet ends and 200 mm o.c. along intermediate supports with 8d ring- shank, coated or hot dip galvanized nails (or screws); allow 3 mm between sheet ends and 6 mm between sheets edges; all sheet ends must be supported by a framing member; glue sheets to joints with construction adhesive. UNDERLAYMENT:15 mm thick exterior glue  plywood fastened 150 mm o.c. along sheet ends and 200 mm o.c. in the panel field (both directions) with 8d ring- shank, coated or hot dip galvanized nails (or screws); allow 3 mm to 6 mm between sheets and 6 mm between sheet edges and any abutting surfaces; offset underlayment joints from joints in subfloor and stagger joints between sheet ends; glue underlayment to subfloor with construction adhesive. Refer to Technical Data Sheet 152 “Bonding Ceramic Tile, Stone or Brick Over Wood Floors” for complete details.

Mixing:

Place clean, potable water or latex admix into a clean pail.
Add 317 Floor & Wall. use approximately 4.2 – 4.4 ℓ of water for 20 kg of powder. Mix by hand or with a slow speed mixer to a smooth, trowelable consistency. Allow mortar to slake for 5–10 minutes. Adjust consistency if necessary. Remix and apply with the proper sized notched trowel.
Note: Use 3701 Mortar Admix for improved bond strength and flexibility.
Application
Apply mortar to the substrate with the flat side of the trowel, pressing firmly to work into surface. Comb on additional mortar with the notched side.
Note: Use the proper sized notched trowel to ensure full bedding of the tile. Spread as much mortar as can be covered with tile in 15–20 minutes. Back butter large tiles > 200 mm x 200 mm to provide full bedding and firm support. Place tiles into wet, sticky mortar and beat in using a beating block and rubber mallet to embed tile and adjust level. Check mortar for complete coverage by periodically removing a tile and inspecting bedding mortar transfer onto back of tile. If mortar is skinned over (not sticky), remove and replace with fresh mortar.
Grouting
Grout installation after a minimum of 24 hours curing time at 21°C.
Recommended LATICRETE Grout: Grout| Type| Mixin
