PART 1
GENERAL
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Bonded terrazzo is normally 45 mm (1-3/4
inch) total thickness, consisting of 13 mm (1/2
inch) thick terrazzo topping over a 32 mm (1-1/4
inch) thick underbed.
Where structural movement which may injure the
terrazzo is anticipated, installations should be by
the sand cushion (floating) method. Where
requirement exists for sand-cushion or other-type
installation method, bases, precast work, or
specialized work such as structural, abrasive,
rustic, or venetian terrazzo, or terrazzo over
permanent metal forms, the specification should be
revised or a separate section should be prepared as
appropriate.
