Installation art is an artistic genre of three-dimensional works that are often site-specific and designed to transform the perception of a space. Generally, the term is applied to interior spaces, whereas exterior interventions are often called public art, land art or art intervention; however, the boundaries between these terms overlap.

I'll be tiling onto a new screed and I'll also be installing underfloor heating electric cable. I need to tile onto the screed early so I'll be using an uncoupling membrane but I also want to use insulations boards for the heating wires. What order would I put these down? Thx Ross :thumbsup:

Morning all.
I have a job coming up where the client has asked if i would install UFH on top of quarry tiles that are basically bedded on dirt.
They dont want the expense of having to rip it all up and have a new concrete floor put down.

Can anyone see any...

1. The substrate must be free of bondinhibiting components, load bearing, and even. Any unevenness in the substrate must be levelled prior to the application of Ditra.
2. The type of bonding adhesive used to apply Ditra depends on the type of substrate. The adhesive must bond to the substrate...

Hi
A couple of questions on UFH installation:
1) I'm planning to install in on ply.. do I still need to use SLC? Is SLC only neccessary if the base is not levelled?
2) The electrical supply for UHF matting, does it come from main ring spur?
3) Can I first install the UFH and do the...
