A. U-Value: The heat flow rate through a given construction is expressed in W/m2/°C.
The lower the U-Value, the less heat is transmitted through the glazing material.
Values given for summer daytime are calculated for outside air temperature at 32°C,
outside air velocity at 12 km/h, inside air temperature of 24°C and a solar intensity of
790 W/m2. Winter night time U-Values are calculated for outside air temperature at -
18°C, outside air velocity at 24km/h, and a solar intensity of 0 W/m2.
B. R-Value: Thermal resistance of a glazing system expressed in Hr•ft2•F/Btu. It is the
reciprocal of U-Value, R=1/U. The higher the R-Value, the less heat is transmitted
through the glazing material.

IFC - Rev.00 Page 4 of 8 November 2019
A. Examine substrates, areas, and conditions where tile will be installed, with Installer
present, for compliance with requirements for installation tolerances and other
conditions affecting performance of installed tile.
1. Verify that substrates for setting tile are firm; dry; clean; free from oil, waxy
films, and curing compounds; and within flatness tolerances required by
referenced ANSI A108 series of tile installation standards for installations
indicated.
2. Verify that installation of grounds, anchors, recessed frames, electrical and
mechanical units of work, and similar items located in or behind tile has been
completed before installing tile.
3. Verify that joints and cracks in tile substrates are coordinated with tile joint
locations; if not coordinated, adjust latter in consultation with Engineer.
B. Do not proceed with installation until unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected.
3.2 PREPARATION
A. Remove coatings, including curing compounds, and other substances that contain
soap, wax, oil, or silicone and are incompatible with tile-setting materials by using a
terrazzo or concrete grinder, a drum sander, or a polishing machine equipped with a
heavy-duty wire brush.
B. Remove protrusions, bumps, and ridges by sanding or grinding.
3.3 INSTALLATION, GENERAL
A. ANSI Tile Installation Standards: Comply with parts of ANSI A108 series of tile
installation standards in "Specifications for Installation of Ceramic Tile" that apply to
types of setting and grouting materials and to methods indicated in ceramic tile

B. Extend tile work into recesses and under or behind equipment and fixtures to form a
complete covering without interruptions, unless otherwise indicated. Terminate work
neatly at obstructions, edges, and corners without disrupting pattern or joint
alignments.
C. Accurately form intersections and returns. Perform cutting and drilling of tile without
marring visible surfaces. Carefully grind cut edges of tile abutting trim, finish, or
built-in items for straight aligned joints. Fit tile closely to electrical outlets, piping,
fixtures, and other penetrations so plates, collars, or covers overlap tile.
D. Jointing Pattern: Lay tile in grid pattern, unless otherwise indicated or directed by the
Engineer. Align joints when adjoining tiles on floor, base, walls, and trim are the
same size. Lay out tile work and center tile fields in both directions in each space or
on each wall area. Adjust to minimize tile cutting. Provide uniform joint widths,
unless otherwise indicated.
