7.2 Consumable
 Stainless steel 8 m/m rod corner protection.
 Cross plastic spacers (6 m/m).

8. WORKFORCE
for one shift of 8hrs / day
 1 engineer
 1 Forman
 tiles fixer as needed
 workers as needed

9. WORK METHODOLOGY
9.1 Leveling & alignment
 The level & alignment point must be done carefully before starting the work.
 Backing to wall filling must be completed in accordance with technical specification.

 Corner protection shall be fixed in each corner to protect ceramic tiles edges.
It consist of a stainless steel Y8 m/m rod fixed with plastic universal anchors
(fisher).
9.2 Fixing ceramic tiles
The application procedure for fixing ceramic tiles using Nitotile GP & Nitobon SBR.
 All leakage through dW to be rectifired before setting.
 All surfaces must be soundness, clean and free from all traces of grease and oil.
All loose particles of mortar and deleterious materials must be removed.
 Concrete substrate should be soaked with water.
 Approximately 3 ltr. Of Nitobond SBR, and 3 ltr. Of clean water should be
added to 25 kg of Nitotile GP that mixed with a slow speed drill until a uniform,
lump free consistency is achieved.
 Allow the mix to stand for about 10 minutes mix again, then it is ready for use.
 Mixed Nitotile GP is spread on the substrate to a thickness not exceeding 10
m/m with a notched trowel. The tiles are then placed firmly into the adhesive
bed with a twisting motion.
 As an alternative, the product may be spread on the substrate to a thickness
of approximately half the total thickness of the bed, while the remaining
thickness is applied on the back of the tiles.
 After 4 to 5 days minimum of fixing the ceramic tiles, filling of joints must be
done with approved material.
