Comparison between Shear and Tensile Adhesion Strength of Cement for Ceramic Tiles and an Experimental Evaluation on the Cutting Effect of Tile for Tensile Adhesion Strength

타일 시멘트 전단접착강도와 인장부착강도 비교 및 인발부착강도 타일커팅 영향에 관한 실험적 평가

Selecting a proper tile cement for ceramic tile is important to secure tile construction quality. But there is some ambiguity in standards about evaluating adhesion test such as using KS L 1593 in Lab test but using KS L 1592 in site. So, this study aims to how to select proper tile cement for securing adhesion strength in site considering both tensile and shear adhesion strength of cement for ceramic tile. Also, when doing tensile adhesion test in site, there may be adhesion drop because of cutting tile with grinder. As a result, drop of adhesion strength is about 9% ans quality manager consider these factor and should select proper tile cement.
