Post subject: Brick Tile Tracing Layout Procedure

To lay brick tiles with mud mortar on rammed earth over mud Phuska  on RCC slabs painted with bitumen and the joints of  tiles  grouted with cement mortar and clean with wire brush or brooms is called tile tracing on roof.

Layout Process
•    After RCC slabs are thoroughly dried, they should be cleaned with wire brush and broom etc.
•    The surface of slabs should be painted with hot bitumen @ 1.7 Kg. per square meter.
•    After painting, immediately clean coarse sand is spread on the surface at the rate of 0.60 CUM per 100 square meters on the surface of roof so that bitumen layer is not damaged during subsequent work.
•    One layer of 25 mm thick mud plaster mixed with Bhusa should be laid.
•    Damp soil should be laid on the roof to the required thickness and slope. The slope should be between 1 in 50 and 1 in 60. Minimum thickness of the soil should be about 25 mm near rain water pipe.
•    The soil should be compacted with wooden rammer to obtain an even surface to correct slope.
•    Another coat of 25 mm thick mud plaster should be laid on compacted earth.  
•    Flat brick tiles of size 22.86X11.43X3.81 Cm. are laid on mud plaster to correct slope. It should be ensured that a mud plaster does not come into vertical joints of tiles by more than 12 mm.        
•    The thickness of joints in tiles should not be less than 6 mm and more than 12 mm in width.
•    After drying of mud mortar the joints of tiles should be grouted with cement mortar 1:3 and ensure that all joints of tiles are completely filled with mortar.
•    The surface of brick tiles is then checked for evenness and slope by means of straight edge and spirit level.  
•    If any unevenness found, it should be rectified immediately.
•    As soon as cement grouting obtain initial setting, the surface of  brick tiles should be covered with gunny bags to prevent quick drying of cement mortar in joints.
•    After 8 to 12 hours, brick tiles paving should be cured by frequent sprinkling of water on the surface for a period of 7 days.
