Good day everyone, and I hope you are all staying good and healthy.
Guys and girls,,I have a new project to work on, with marble tiles. The specifications call for ASTM standards, which is screed substrate, then flexible https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ using a notched trowel.
A contractor asked if it was ok to do the "old method" he states, of red sand, and then a white cement slurry of 1 part sand to 3 parts water to make a slurry. He spreads it all over the sand, than lays down the tile, taps it lightly, puts in his spacers and then off to the next tile. So my question is: is this type of installation in any specifications in the world? Whether it be American, British or Australian Standards?
