Hi lads and lasses, just wanted to check on weights,
Been asked to fix these, 600x300x10mm porcelain, these are the largest ill have fixed by far so want to make sure the weights ok for the board, to be fixed to moisture board, tanked with ardex tanking. so I've a 32kg weight per m2 both with board and also same with the tanking. Correct? I know the boards fixed sound as I've re boarded it.
So anyone know what weight these tiles will be per m2 and also am I right in thinking adhesive will be around 4kg /m2? cheers d

I'll check with ctd tomorrow but it looks well within tolerance. Just picked the board up at the customers house and thought bloody hell that's a weight. Lol.

Why would u use a rapid adhesive on the wall mate?
There's no need. And it'll make hard work of it.

Yeah make it easy on yourself! - weber standard set plus or standard set SPF (if there's chance of movement) and weight limits will be fine.

Wanted to push the job on as had left myself short on time for another job, who's rang a number of times to check I'm still coming. So wanted to push on, but did think I might struggle, so second opinion and its off the purchase list. :oops:
Then the customers who's been ringing calls today to postpone as she needs to get a sparkie in as her DIY husband has replaced the socket fronts wrong in the hall I was to skim... lol... so I can chill and tackle these first for me porcelain tiles with time pressure.
Cheers for your input fellas, much appreciated.
