STONE TILE INSTALLATION
A.
Comply with TCNA's "Handbook for Ceramic, Glass, and Stone Tile Installation" for TCNA
installation methods specified in stone tile installation schedules. Comply with parts of the
ANSI A108 series "Specifications for Installation of Ceramic Tile" that are referenced in TCNA
STONE TILING

installation methods specified in stone tile installation schedules, and apply to types of setting
and grouting materials used.
1.
For the following installations, follow procedures in the ANSI A108 series of tile
installation standards for providing 95 percent mortar coverage:
a.
b.
c.
Exterior stone tile floors.
Stone tile floors in wet areas.
Stone tile floors consisting of stone tiles 8 by 8 inches (200 by 200 mm) or larger.
B.
Wipe backs of stone tiles with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust before units are installed.
C.
Extend stone tile work into recesses and under or behind equipment and fixtures to form
complete covering without interruptions unless otherwise indicated. Terminate work neatly at
obstructions, edges, and corners without disrupting pattern or joint alignments.
D.
Accurately form intersections and returns. Perform cutting and drilling of stone tile without
marring visible surfaces. Carefully grind cut edges of stone tile abutting trim, finish, or built-in
items for straight aligned joints. Fit stone tile closely to electrical outlets, piping, fixtures, and
other penetrations so plates, collars, or covers overlap stone tile.
E.
Finish cut stone tile edges that will not be concealed by other construction by grinding and
honing cut surfaces [and beveling edges] [and easing edges] to match factory-fabricated
edges[ unless otherwise indicated].
F.
Where accent tile differs in thickness from field tile, vary setting-bed thickness so that tiles are
flush.
G.
Jointing Pattern: Lay stone tile in grid pattern unless otherwise indicated. Lay out stone tile
work and center stone tile fields in both directions in each space or on each wall area. Lay out
stone tile work to minimize the use of pieces that are less than half of a tile. Provide uniform
joint widths unless otherwise indicated.
1.
2.
Where adjoining stone tiles on floor, base, walls, or trim are specified or indicated to be
same size, align joints.
Where stone tiles are specified or indicated to be whole integer multiples of adjoining
stone tiles on floor, base, walls, or trim, align joints unless otherwise indicated.
H.
Lay out stone tile wainscots to dimensions indicated or to next full tile beyond dimensions
indicated.
I.
Match stone tiles within each space by selecting tiles to achieve uniformity of color and pattern.
Reject or relocate stone tiles that do not match color and pattern of adjacent tiles.
J.
Mix stone tiles to achieve a uniformly random distribution of color shadings and patterns.
K.
Pattern Orientation: For stone varieties with directional pattern, orient pattern as [indicated]
[directed by Architect].

otherwise indicated.
1.
2.
N.
3.4
Where joints occur in concrete substrates, locate joints in stone tile surfaces directly
above them.
At locations where mortar bed (thickset) would otherwise be exposed above adjacent
floor finishes, set thresholds in latex-portland cement mortar (thinset).
Do not extend [cleavage membrane] [waterproofing] [or] [crack isolation membrane]
under thresholds set in [dry-set portland cement] [or] [latex-portland cement] mortar.
Fill joints between such thresholds and adjoining stone tile with elastomeric sealant.
Metal Edge Strips: Install [at locations indicated] [where exposed edge of stone tile flooring
meets carpet, wood, or other flooring that finishes flush with top of stone tile] [where
exposed edge of stone tile flooring meets carpet, wood, or other flooring that finishes flush
with or below top of stone tile and no threshold is indicated].
TILE BACKING PANEL INSTALLATION
A.
3.5
Install panels and treat joints according to ANSI A108.11 and manufacturer's written
instructions for type of application indicated.[ Use latex-portland cement mortar for bonding
material unless otherwise directed in manufacturer's written instructions.]
WATERPROOFING INSTALLATION
A.
Install waterproofing to comply with ANSI A108.13 and manufacturer's written instructions to
produce waterproof membrane of uniform thickness and bonded securely to substrate.
B.
Allow waterproofing to cure and verify by testing that it is watertight before installing tile or
setting materials over it.
3.6
CRACK ISOLATION MEMBRANE INSTALLATION
A.
Install crack isolation membrane to comply with ANSI A108.17 and manufacturer's written
instructions to produce membrane of uniform thickness and bonded securely to substrate.

cleaned. Protect metal surfaces and plumbing fixtures from effects of cleaning. Flush
surfaces with clean water before and after cleaning.
