grouted laying Explanation: "...a rectangular template for the grouted laying of several tiles in an abutting pattern." I assume that it is a frame that positions the tiles in such a way that the joints that are filled with grouting are all of equal width. It's a little confusing - if the tiles are aneinanderstossend = abutting (butt-jointed), there would not be a gap for grouting, as the tiles would fit flush with one another. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2013-10-26 09:34:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Quote from http://tinyurl.com/nzhbx6p on the laying of Terrazzo tiles "GROUTING If you are doing a butt-joint installation grout may not be necessary. Grout should be designed for external or internal conditions whichever may be the case. If you are leaving a grout joint 1/8“or smaller, non-sanded grout is recommended." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day9 hrs (2013-10-27 16:22:34 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Hi Conny, Pleased to have been able to help you out:-) |
