On the terrace we will lay the floor using adjustable supports

December 7, 2018

Typically, they try to lay terrace tiles in a traditional way – on a solution of a solution or a layer of crushed stone. But on a small attic terrace for mounting a floor of concrete tiles, you can use a technological and modern method – adjustable supports. For external terraces, as a floor covering, instead of a traditional terrace board, tiles made of ceramics, concrete or natural stone are often used very often. The variety of its colors and sizes successfully allows you to solve the difficult problems of design in absolutely any architectural style. Why, for the attic terrace of a country house, do not choose the color in the so -called Mediterranean style, which with a natural environment will be in harmony very well. On the floor in the tubs you can place all kinds of plants, and you get a small oasis of lush greenery, emphasizing even more Mediterranean motifs in the design of the recreation corner. The front surface made of decorative concrete tiles resembles a stone of travertin with its nostril with a porous structure (it is also very often called a lime tuf), but the inside of all elements is laid out with a special sponge rubber. The color of the tiles, gray-white, with watercolor shades of beige and yellow, corresponds to exactly the color that the natural prototype has. Neatly stacked square elements form a graphic clear pattern and on a small and also square terrace look in proportion. Usually, when choosing the most optimal way of flooring, in order to avoid a significant load on wooden coatings, it is better to refuse the traditional ways to lay tiles. Will have to look for a certain alternative to a crushed stone base or a solution. Under the floor covering on an open terrace, not only melt, but also rainwater can stagnate. And this over time will necessarily lead to damage to building structures located below, including polyurethane and oriented scruff. In winter, the water, stagnated at the base, freezes and, expanding, can damage both the tile coating and the base of the floor. And if so, when the power of the terrace, it is better to give preference to the installation of tiles on special adjustable supports, fasteners. Such a system for ceilings does not increase the load and does not require significant height. At the same time, melt or rainwater, without any obstacles, flows into the open gaps that are between tiles. There it enters the bitumen waterproofing layer and through a special drainage, made of galvanized sheet steel, is removed outside. Steel wide castings are installed along the entire perimeter of the roof that can divert water flowing down the roof. The space under the tiles forms an air ventilated layer capable of removing excess moisture formed from the dew in the form of condensate or fog, and is also a place of laying of pipe and cable communications. To verify and repair such communications, as well as when replacing damaged plates without much difficulty, you can extract individual elements from the general coating and just as simply return them to the same place. Cross separators made of durable plastic allow you to fix the width of the gaps between the slabs. If you have to lay tiles against the wall, then between the tiles and the wall you always need to leave the so -called compensation clearance. A stone -cutting machine and a grinding machine with diamond disks are used if when laying the last row, it is necessary to adjust the size of the tile. Using the advanced system of laying tiles on adjustable supports makes it possible to create a practical, beautiful and strictly horizontal floor with your own hands.
