resin wetroom - TilersForums.com

[lusso]

Well most of my plans for a wetroom seem to curry disfavour from what I've read on this site.

I was hoping to angle 4 plywood triangular sections towards a central waste.
Obviously means taking up to an inch off existing joists at the centre of the room. As the joist depths were 10" I thought 9" might still hold me up. Certainly If I introduced metal support.

I then want to add 6mm thick wine cork tops to the whole 3 m square room with adhesive. Then trowel or self level twin pack resin the wholw floor plus 5" up the wall.
I might add that I have full access under the joists as there is no ceiling below.
I would then wish to tile the walls ceramic or fibre glass so that they overhang the 5" resin wall.
Am I being a twonk ?
Cheers

It seems you might be making it harder than it is

What are you doing with the wine corks again

 

[faithhealer]

You can buy large paper sheets on 6mm thick cork from the Czech Republic that you simply roll out on adhesive. Jellineck have been producing cork for the worlds wine industry for decades.

i could've made it harder. I was going to disperse 10,000 plastic ice scream spoons on the floor and resin on top of that. But I thought Dave the Administrator would have ejected from the site due to insanity.

My problem is that preformed trays and tanking raises the floor too high for me. Though I do accept slopping ply is a desperate idea.

Tray sits on the joists not on the floor boards so height is minimal

Not if you use the Tuffdec2 tray...

I just read up the tuffdec2. I'll have to concede that you have proposed a valid solution.
