What Moves You?! A Deep Dive into EJ171

What Moves You?! A Deep Dive into EJ171

In design, the movement of a substrate is rarely considered first. We will dive deep into Detail EJ171 from the TCNA Handbook. This is the section that explains movement joint guidelines for ceramic, glass and stone.

Learning Objectives: 
  1. Discuss issues to consider before the design.
  2. Where you can find information that contributes to the sustainability of the design.
  3. Learn the importance of movement in every tile installation to accommodate thermal and physical movement, recommended location and frequency of joints, and how to determine joint width and depth.
  4. Analyze details for compliance with current industry standards and different methods available.
  5. Attendees will learn the importance of movement in all installation. How to create a design that will be able to accommodate thermal and physical movement in a structure. Attendees will be able to analyze details and see if it complies with current industry standards. By the end, all will understand the different methods that are available to them for their design.
