Hi, can anyone help me select the correct https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ for an external tile job?

I am tile an external terrace with a wooden substructure. Above the wooden sub-structure I plan to fit a waterproof moveable membrane (Ditra) , and tile over that.

It will be important for there to be minimum risk of water ingress through both the grout and the https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/, and because of the wooden structure there needs to be maximum flex in both the https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ and the grout.

The surface will also have an external drain fitted and we need to try to ensure minimum seepage of rainwater between the edge of the drain installation and the adjoining tile edges - I'll probably silicon around this area and tile up to it.

Tiles will be porcelain, 600x600, around 10mm thick, total area around 12 sq. meters.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for your help. No, its regular Ditra, not the drainage type. There is a fall on the balcony so I can get the rainwater into a standard plastic hexdrain and connect to a downpipe thats adjacent. I thought about the drain 8 but it seemed a lot harder to get the waste pipe to connect to the downpipe.
