Finish TradesCâu 464 / 700
When cement backer board is used as a tile substrate on a floor, how should the board joints be treated before setting tile?
a.Taped with alkali-resistant mesh tape and filled with thinset mortar
b.Left open with a wide visible gap
c.Sealed with ordinary painter's masking tape
d.Covered only with drywall joint compound
Giải thích
Backer-board joints are reinforced with alkali-resistant mesh tape embedded in thinset so the joint moves as one plane and does not telegraph cracks. Leaving joints open, using paper masking tape, or using water-soluble drywall compound would all fail under a tile floor's moisture and movement.
