The Thin-bed Method:
Faster, More Efficient,
More Durable
Complicated, Ineffective and
Expensive: the Thick-Bed Method
Tiles used to be mainly laid via the thick-
bed method. This involves mixing cement
and sand on site in a ratio of 1:3 to 1:5.
In some countries, cement is even used
without sand. The tiles and substrate are
first moistened with water. Then a 15 to
30-mm-thick mortar coat is applied to
the back of the tile, and the tile is pressed
onto the substrate. To obtain a flush
surface, the tiles are subsequently tapped
into the mortar bed. This process has
various practical difficulties.
Complicated Handling
The thick-bed method requires experi
enced tilers, since the mortar must be
accurately mixed from sand and cement,
and applied in exactly the right amount.
The tiling itself is also time consuming and
difficult because of the mortar used. Since
simple cement mortars, like pure cement,
do not have any slump resistance, the
freshly laid tiles will slip on walls. The tiles
can therefore only be laid from bottom to
top using spacers. Obtaining a satisfac-
tory result is a lengthy process requiring
a high degree of skill and experience.

Compensating for Shear Forces
The adhesion-strength test after heat
aging according to EN 1348 gives some
idea of the adhesive's flexibility. Due to
the differing expansion coefficients of
concrete slabs and tiles, shear stresses
form during aging between the tile and
substrate, which the adhesive has to
compensate. Tile adhesives with little
or no polymer modifier show very poor
adhesion, if any. Since tiles used in
practice are in excess of the standard
5 x 5 cm size, much higher shear stresses
are encountered than in the standard
test. Therefore, a higher polymer content
is even more important.
