hi
iam just trying to see if the books i have read this week have made any impact on my learning. this is what i have learned can you tell me if i am on the right path.
1. datum line should be set up around the room as a reference to find the ceiling heights and the floor depths.
2. british standards say cuts should be half a tile minimum where possible.
3. if possible, find the centre of a window and work away from the centre
4. same applies for walls
5. always make a gauging staff to see where the tiles will fall.
6. try and aim for what looks right in the most obvious parts of a room.
7.full tile above bath if its possible
i have numbered these points incase there is any that are incorrect so that you can clearly correct me on what no is wrong
also, where should you start with a full tile. is it in the corner of a wall or should there be cuts there because i have centered the wall. if anybody could add setting out tips that would be cool
thanks, ross
