Marble is a rock resulting from

metamorphism of sedimentary

carbonate rocks, most commonly

lime stone or dolomite rock.

Metamorphism causes variablerecrystallization of the original

carbonate mineral grains. The

minerals that result from

impurities give marble wide

variety of colours. The purest

calcite marble is white. Marble

Porcelain is made similarly to other ceramic, although it

is fired at much higher temperature. Porcelain tiles for the floor

are made by combining natural products such as crushed China

stone and kaolinite with chemicals that give the porcelain

strength. Porcelain tiles are fully vitrified, glazed or unglazed and

can be made using a white or colored ceramic body composed of

a mix of clay and feldspars. They are shaped by pressing apowdered body and the fired product has water absorption less

than 0.5% (ISO 10545-3).

Unglazed porcelain tiles is the popularity of this type of

tile grew rapidly following technology evolution in single firing.

Water absorption is 0.1% or less (in order to minimize open

it ft li hi )

traffic. Because its 30% stronger than granite, porcelain is

perfect for both residential and commercial use. It also offers

superior stain resistance.

Low Maintenance - Porcelain tiles are easy to maintain. Simplysweep the floor thoroughly and clean with a damp mop and mild

household detergent.

Sustainability - Porcelain tiles are smooth and non-porous.Because of its hardness and its resistance to moisture,

porcelain is most often used in bathrooms and kitchens.

Porcelain tiles are non-porous; theyre water, allergen and

bacteria resistant.

1.1.2.3 General Installation Guidelines of Unglazed Porcelain TilesFlooring

1. Divide the area to be tiled into four even sections, using a level and pencil tomake two lines that intersect in the middle of the area. Use your square to

ensure that the lines are exactly perpendicular to each other, at 90 degrees.

2. Install your tiles with thinset mortar, spreading it with a mortar trowel overthe intersection of the two lines and setting the first four tiles at the

intersection. Space them 1/8-inch from each other, using tile spacers. Cut the

tiles to fit at the outside edges of the area with your tile cutter. Let the tiles

set overnight.

3. Brush penetrating tile sealant over the whole surface of the tiled area. Coverthe face (top surface) of each tile completely, but don't let the sealant get

into the spaces between the tiles. Let the sealant dry for an

hour, and then apply a second coat.

1.1.3 Engineered Timber Flooring1.1.3.1 IntroductionEngineered hardwood flooring offers all the beauty of a real hardwood floor, but

adds greater stability due to its many layers. Because theyre more resistant to

higher humidity levels, engineered hardwood floors can be installed in more places

than traditional hardwood floors, like summer homes and basements. Plus, todays

engineered hardwood flooring options are tremendous and available in a wide

variety of domestic and hardwood species.

Engineered hardwood flooring is a product made up of a core of hardwood or

plywood and a top layer of hardwood veneer. The product thus has the natural

characteristics of the selected wood species,

as opposed to a photographic layer. The

main difference between this type of wood

and laminate flooring is that laminate

flooring contains no actual wood.Engineered flooring is produced by

adhering layers of plastic laminate veneer

with real wood. The end result is a

stunning array of options that are

gorgeous, durable and eco-friendly

because they require fewer trees to

1.1.3.2Advantages and Disadvantages of Engineered Timber FlooringAdvantages Disadvantages

Durability - Solid hardwood is among

the longest lasting of all flooring types.

With todays flooring finishes, these

floors are also water resistant.

Limited Below Grade Installation - Solid

hardwood not recommended for below

grade installation due to sensitive to

humidity. These floors perform better in

humidity controlled environments.

( Below Grade - Pertaining to the locationof a finished floor that is in direct contact

with the ground or with less than 18

inches of well-ventilated space.)

Appearance - Solid hard wood floors

give an elegant aesthetic and high end

look. It improves with age because it

acquires a desirable patina over time. Italso offers warmth, natural look, beauty

and value of wood and never goes out

of style.

Transitions To Other Floors - A new

hardwood floor may be a different height

than the floor it adjoins. Thinner profile

wood and transition strips will help toequalize the difference.

Allergy Prevention - Carpets are known

as breeding grounds for mold, mildew,

dust mites, and also hold animal

dander. These are all undesirable

May Scratch - A hardwood floors finish is

susceptible to scratching from traffic or

pet nails.

1.1.4 Ceramic Tiles Flooring1.1.4.1 Introduction

Products that beautify your home, enhance design and dcor, meet your specific

comfort, performance and budget needs, are easy to care for, and stand the test

of time. Ceramic tile has been around for centuries, and with today's technology

manufacturers have created new design and application possibilities that were

not available a decade ago. If you have never lived with ceramic tile before or if it

has been a long time since you have done so, you will be amazed at the wideselection of colors, sizes, shapes and new textures that are now available.

Because of its durability and its resistance to moisture, ceramic flooring is most

often used in bathrooms and kitchens. However, it is extremely versatile and can

be used in almost any room in the home. A ceramic tile is natural product made

up of clay, mineral and water. It has a ceramic coating on the tile body, giving it

color and finish so it will be natural choice for your interior floors and walls

1.1.4.2Advantages and Disadvantages of Ceramic Tiles Flooring

Table 7 Advantages and Disadvantages of Ceramic Tiles Flooring

Advantages Disadvantages

Durability - Ceramic tile is great for

high traffic situations, thanks to its

strength and resiliency to staining and

wear. While not extremely impact

resistant, the wear ability of tile is the

reason for its durability.

If not properly installed, ceramic floor tiles

develop cracks in a few years ago tiles are

fragile.

Easy Maintenance - Ceramic tiles are

virtually maintenance free and very

easy to clean. Simply sweep the floor

thoroughly with a broom and clean with

a damp mop and mild household

detergent.

Ceramic tiles are hard, and therefore feel

very stiff under their feet, especially if you

work in the kitchen for long hours. To

reduce the impact, you can get some rugs

in the intervention group areas.

1.1.4.3 Installation of Ceramic Tiles FlooringStep 1

Choosing thinset mortar. Selecting the proper thinset mortar for yourceramic tile installation will add strength and years of life to your new

flooring. Avoid using organic mastics adhesives to install ceramic tile to floors.

Use a gray thinset mortar if you plan to use a dark colored grout and use a

white thinset mortar if you plan to use a light colored grout.

Skim coating the Substrate with thinset mortar. Prior to installing your tile,skim a thin coating of thinset mortar onto the substrate using the flat end of

your thinset trowel. This will maximize the mechanical bond between the

thinset mortar bed and the floor. The tile and mortar bed should be installed

while this coating is wet.

Step 2

Applying the thinset mortar to the tile instead of the floor will result in aflatter and cleaner tile floor. Foundations tend to draw moisture away from

the mortar causing it to dry very quickly. Beginners will benefit from this

technique as they will have more time to work at a slower pace. In addition,

because this method of application offers 100% coverage, the risk of air

pockets becoming trapped under the tile are significantly reduced and the

grout will also have a deeper, more secure base. This technique is most

effective for tiles larger than 8" x 8" in size and is highly recommended for

1.2 Internal Wall Finishes1.2.1 Ceramic Wall Tiling1.2.1.1 IntroductionCeramic tiles are made of porous body with a coating of white or colored Glaze.

These are used extensively in the bathrooms, kitchen in modern buildings and in

hospitals and analytical laboratories, toiletries attached to railway platforms. This is

because of this products have properties like good resistance to weather and

chemicals, having high strength, hard, glossy surface with different colors and

pleasing appearance. Ceramic wall tiles in different colours, of the same size, shape

and finishing to put together an interesting wall design. In the near future the

chances for replacing these items by other materials look very bleak. These tiles are

rather cheap, easy to clean, have more life and are available in pleasing colours.

Therefore, ceramic wall tiles are highly recommended to install.

1.2.1.2Advantages and Disadvantages of Ceramic Wall Tiling

1Hygienic and Easy to Clean

Ceramic wall tile is much easier to maintain than paint, wall paper or other tile materials.

You can choose from a range of finishes such as matt, glossy or semi glossy. To keep the tiles

clean, all you need to do is wipe them from time to time. Ceramic wall tiles are also highly

resistant to abrasive chemicals and cleaners, which makes them easy to keep clean.

2Moisture Resistant

Because ceramic wall tile is resistant to moisture and humidity, it is ideal for damp

environments such as bathrooms and kitchens. It does not swell or deform when exposed to

high levels of moisture.

3Fade Resistant

Even when subjected to continuous exposure to the sun, ceramic wall tiles do not fade or

lose color. The appearance of these tiles will remain the same for many long years with

minimal care.

4Long Lasting

Ceramic wall tiles are very durable and long lasting. They do not crack, fade or break under

1.2.1.3 Installation of Ceramic Wall Tiling

Preparing the wall

Ceramic tiles can be installed directly on drywall, plaster, or if they are in moist areas,

onto "green" drywall or even better cement backer board. Green drywall designed

for use in bathrooms. It's as easy (or as hard) to work with as ordinary drywall, but

it's specially formulated to resist moisture. Its best use is in a kitchen or bathroom

where the environment will get moist, but not where it will actually be exposed towater.

Installing the tile

Starting in the center, on one side of your reference line, apply a coat of tile setting

adhesive to an area about 3' by 3' square. Take care not to cover your lines .Spread

the adhesive with the smooth side of your notched trowel and then go over it with

the notched side to create ridges in the adhesive. Firmly press each tile in place andgive it a slight twisting motion to be sure it makes good contact with the adhesive. As

you work your way along, place tile spacers on all four sides of each tile, so your

grout lines will be consistent. Take your time and work on the wall in three square

foot sections. At the end of a row or around fixtures, you'll probably need to cut

some tiles. A rented ceramic tile cutter is the easiest way to make your straight cuts.

Using this tool, score the cut line on a full tile and then snap the tile along the

Clean the surfaceThe surface must be cleaned of mortar droppings, dirt, dust, grease and other foreign

matters such as growth of molds, algae, moss by brushing and washing. Efflorescence

deposits must be cleaned also.

Repair the patchesPatches on painting area must be repaired by plastering followed by application of a coat ofwaterproofing cement paint on patches after wetting the surface completely.

Clean existing paint/whitewashClean old/existing surface, previously treated with whitewash and color wash thoroughly by

scrapping all whitewash, color wash when water proofing cements paint is required to apply

on existing surfaces.

Do mixing thoroughly

Step1: Mix cement paint and water in proper ratioTake 2 parts of cement paint and one part of water and stir thoroughly. Take care to add

cement paint gradually to the water and not vice versa.

Step 2: Add remaining waterAdd remaining one part of water to the mixture

1.3 Internal Ceiling Finishes1.3.1 Gypsum Board Ceiling with Painting1.3.1.1 IntroductionGypsum board is widely used for internal walls and ceilings by the construction industry, and

is a material of growing importance in the do-it-yourself sector. It is manufactured by

calcining gypsum into a plaster, making slurry from the plaster, and passing the slurrythrough machines which shape, set, and cut into a board. The addition of Boric Acid to the

slurry yields significant improvements in product performance, user convenience, and

process efficiency. In gypsum board manufacture, Boric Acid is used to increase the strength

of the board, to reduce the board weight by about 10%, to provide better adhesion of the

paper backing to the board, to reduce the curing time of gypsum board, to prevent wrinkle

formation on the surface of the board, to create a hard gypsum edge that withstands nailing

and handling and to enhance fire retardancy.

1.3.1.2Advantages of Gypsum Board Ceiling Ease of installation

Gypsum board building systems are easy to install for several reasons. Gypsum

board panels are relatively large compared to other materials. They come in 48-

and 54-inch wide sheets and in lengths of 8, 10, or 12 feet, so they quickly cover

large wall and ceiling areas. Gypsum board assemblies require only a few tools

for their construction. Gypsum board can be cut with either a utility knife or a

variety of saws, and it can be attached with a variety of fasteners, including

screws, nails, and staples. It can also be adhesively attached to many substrates.

Gypsum board is a lightweight material. Two workers can easily handle most

panels and cover large areas in very short time periods. Gypsum board is easily

finished using either a few hand tools or relatively modest machines. Gypsum

board installers can quickly learn most application techniques in a few hours.

Fire resistanceGypsum board is an excellent fire-resistive building material. In North America, itis the most commonly used interior finish where fire resistance classifications

are required. Its noncombustible core contains nearly 21% chemically combined

water, as described earlier, which, under high heat, is slowly released as steam.

When installed in combination with other materials in laboratory-tested wall

and ceiling assemblies, gypsum board serves to effectively protect building

elements from fire for prescribed time periods.

1.3.1.3 Installation of Gypsum Board Ceiling1. Measure the ceiling starting the one end along a wall perpendicular to the joists. Find

the joist that's closest to being 8 feet from the wall, without being further than that.

Measure from the middle of the joist to the wall.

2. Use your razor knife to score and snap a piece of gypsum board at that length,running the blade alongside your t-square to keep it straight.

3. Set up two ladders, one by the starting wall, the other under the joists to which youmeasured. With an assistant, hold the gypsum board up to the ceiling, with the cut

end facing the wall and the uncut end lining up with the middle of the joist.

4. Shoot drywall screws ever six inches or so along the edge of the board where it isunder the joist. Do the same for the rest of the joists above the board. (You will be

able to judge the positions of the joists behind the board based on where they comeout from the side of it.) Make sure to completely sink the screw heads below the

surface

5. Hang the rest of the boards in the same manner, positioning them end to end, incourses, always meeting at the joists. Stagger the positions of the board between

courses, so there are no four-way intersections.

1.3.2 Ceiling Tiles1.3.2.1 IntroductionCeiling tiles are lightweight tiles used in the interior of buildings. They are placed in

an aluminum grid and they provide little thermal insulation but are generally

designed to improve the acoustics of a room. Mineral fibre tiles are fabricated from a

range of products; wet felt tiles can be manufactured from perlite, mineral wool, and

fibers from recycled paper, stone wool tiles are created by combining molten stone

and binders which is then spun to create the tile, or gypsum tiles which are based onthe soft mineral and then finished with vinyl, paper or a decorative face. Ceiling tiles

very often have patterns on the front face; these are there in most circumstances to

aid with the tiles ability to improve acoustics.
