BS 8000-11:2011
This standard BS 8000-11:2011 Workmanship on building sites is classified in these ICS categories:
- 91.200 Construction technology
This part of BS 8000 gives recommendations on basic workmanship on building sites, both commercial and domestic, and covers those tasks that are frequently carried out in relation to internal/external wall and floor tiling and slabs.
It makes recommendations and gives guidance on basic workmanship for conventional types of building work. The recommendations given are not necessarily comprehensive; particular project documents, e.g. project specifications, might need to cover particular recommendations not dealt with by this code of practice.
The recommendations given in this British Standard apply to the fixing of ceramic and agglomerated stone tiles, natural stone and terrazzo tiles and slabs, and mosaics to walls and floors using adhesive and mortar. BS EN 12440 sets out requirements for natural stone used in construction. Design aspects of wall and floor tiling are given in BS 5385. Design, installation and maintenance of natural stone cladding and lining are dealt with in BS 8298. Harmonized European product specifications are now available for natural stone tiles (BS EN 12057) and slabs (BS EN 12058), ceramic tiles (BS EN 14411), agglomerated stone (BS EN 15285) and adhesives (BS EN 12004).
