Important changes to ANSI A 108 – Installation Standards
ANSI A108.02 4.3.8 Grout joint size: To accommodate the
range in facial dimensions of the tile supplied for a specific
project, the actual grout joint size may, of necessity, vary
from the grout joint size specified. The actual grout joint
size shall be at least three times the actual variation of
facial dimensions of the tile supplied.
This Tensile Adhesion Bond Test quantifies the amount of vertical force required
to pull a tile or stone from a given substrate after a prescribed period of time.
This test can be performed both in the lab environment and also on the
project site in the field.
OPTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS
– EXTENDED OPEN TIME –
E: Maximum open time in which the tile can be adjusted in the adhesive without
loss of minimum bond strength
Where would you use?
• When extended open time is necessary
• Porous substrates or porous tiles
• Higher temperatures
Direct sunlight/wind
ISO 13007
– Transverse Deformation –
•S: The ability of the mortar to accommodate varying
movements between the tile and the substrate
•S1: Deformable adhesives deflect 2.5 mm (0.1") and
< 5 mm (0.2")
•S2: Highly deformable adhesives deflect 5 mm (0.2")
‘Polymers’ make a mortar deformable

– Epoxies & Urethanes –
Residential and
commercial buildings
Architect
– Able to specify products that meet proper
performance characteristics for project
– Able to generate completely generic reference
specifications, yet setting the level of quality that best
matches the project
– By allowing competitive product that meet the spec,
they should receive a more competitive bid
Owner
– More assured in getting what he is paying for − life
cycle of building
– Receiving an installation that will perform as
expected
– May be able to secure better warranty
Who Benefits With ISO AND ANSI?
Tile contractor
– All competitors should be bidding equivalent
products − it evens the playing field
