LININGS photograph section - common problems Solution 6.3 (p. 137) Solution 3.2 (p. 123) Solution 6.11 (p. 141) Solution 6.12 (p. 141) The linings we encounter on a building surface may be of several different materials, such as ceramic tile, stone, granite, wood, metal, or other materials. Factors that can cause damage or wear and contribute to the partial or total destruction of the lining materials are: • The condition of the substrate (was not clean before the lining installation, was unsound, or had retained moisture), • Selection of unsuitable lining materials for the specific substrate or the use of the application space, • Wrong choice of tiles or another lining for the application surface, • Selection of unsuitable grouting or sealing products for the lining, • The failure to observe proper installation practices (preparation of the substrate, absence of expansion joints, etc.), • An incomplete assessment of the environmental conditions that affect the lining (moisture, temperature, chemical attack, etc.), • Mechanical stress, vibrations, and physical wear, are some of the factors that make it necessary to repair or replace the lining material(s). In this section, we list a series of photographs with visible problems with lined surfaces. You can identify potential problems that you have with your space, and be aware of the size and nature of the problem. In this way, you will properly convey the information to the technician or the store, and you will be more safely guided to the appropriate solution for dealing with and restoring of those problems.
