Memasang Jubin Penyerepan Rendah ke atas Dinding Simen

Isu-isu dan pertanyaan umum yang boleh anda hadapi

Render are only let to cure for just 2-3 days only.
Tiling onto substrate that is not fully cured is tiling onto unstable substrate with potential movement

Use of neat cement or pure OPC cement only when fixing ceramic tile.
The traditional specification allows the use of cement sand mix.
The local application practices is to use just neat OPC cement
Using OPC Cement will expose the installation with high Shrinkage factor.
Use of neat cement or pure OPC cement only when fixing low water absorption tile.
Using neat OPC Cement will result in a very low mechanical bonding effect onto the low water absorption tile surface.

The porcelain tile has less microscopic pores for better water absorption.
Less microscopic pores will not allow for a good penetration of the cement fibre to give a good mechanical bonding effect.

Cement sand mixture will only expose the tile to a bonding process that is called a hydration process.
The hydration process is the chemical process when cement is mixed with water.
The Chemical reaction will result in the development of cementitious fiber that will interlocked between each other and penetrate into the surface tile's body or substrate giving a bonding effect that call mechanical bond.

To determine the water absorption level of the tile, dropped some water onto the tile back.
High water absorption tile absorb the water & leaves a water mark at the tile back.
The water will run off onto the tile back when dropped.
The water will not be absorp into the tile body & you will not see any water mark on the tile surface.

For homogeneous / low water absorption tile, they have a higher thermal movement within the tile than other type of tile.
Tile adhesive that is deformable is the most suitable type of tile adhesive.
