bevel
A bevelled edge (UK) or beveled edge (US) is an edge of a structure that is not perpendicular to the faces of the piece. The words bevel and chamfer overlap in usage; in general usage they are often interchanged, while in technical usage they may sometimes be differentiated as shown in the image at right. A bevel is typically used to soften the edge of a piece for the sake of safety, wear resistance, or aesthetics; or to facilitate mating with another piece.

Silicone between tiles and bath, I didn't bevel it, bad idea?
I finished tiling my bathroom and used BAL silicone matching the grout along the 4mm gap between the tiles and bathtub, I used a Fugi tool with 90 degree edge as I thought it looked nicer and was easier to tool than using the curved edge. Is this a bad idea, I assume water will sit closely along...- MickeyDonovan

Bevel Tiles after Wet/Dry Cut ?
Hi all, When I have wet or dry cut some of my tiles, I've tended to bevel off the sharp edge with a grinder usually around doorways where there is a slight difference in levels between one area and another, thought it looked better and safer on the toes Is this good practise ?- Polished
