Luncheon Meeting: Tile & Stone 09 30 00 Specifications – Spec forSuccess

Thursday, March 13th, 2014

Presented by David Sherley, TTMAC and Custom Building Products

How are your specifications perceived by the trades? Dave Sherley will review examples of typical tile specifications, relay how they’re perceived by the trades, and present an approach that clearly communicates consultants’ intentions for preparation products, setting systems, grouts, sealers and other areas of tile specification.

This approach is founded on the 2012/2014 Specification Guide 09 30 00 Tile Installation Manual, a practical, customizable master specification guide published by the Terrazzo, Tile & Marble Association of Canada (TTMAC). The Specification Guide streamlines the preparation of specifications to describe the installation and performance requirements for ceramic and stone tile installations. It is the most comprehensive up-to-date tile installation standard available in Canada.

The TTMAC was founded in 1944. Its mandate is to develop methods of standardizing terrazzo, tile and marble installation techniques, as well as being a technical resource and liaison for architects, specifiers, designers and engineers.

With 25 years of manufacturing building products experience, David Sherley is recognized as key resource for the trade and builders across Western Canada. David has been a TTMAC member for 16 years, been a committee board member and been responsible for TTMAC training for 16 years.
