I plan to lay a circa 8m x 4m patio using a concrete slab and fixing with tile adhesive. The porcelain tiles will be 1200 x 600 or 900 x 450, I want to use a half bond with the longest edge parallel to the 8m length of the slab. The slab will need at least one expansion/movement joint which will be perpendicular to the 8m edge. I presume that the tiles will need a join that runs along/over the top of any expansion/movement joint and I'm looking for advice on I) how should the tile joint which runs over the expansion/movement joint be finished; is grout okay or do I need another method? ii) any design suggestions about how to plan the tile layout to incorporate an expansion joint.
Thanks
