All floor tile installation methods in the 2011 TCNA Handbook will include a new category of information: Typical Weight of Tile Installation. Under this subhead, the Handbook user will find the estimated weight of the tile installation. This section also refers the reader to Appendix B, which provides the assumptions that were made in calculating the estimated weight and the weights of the individual installation components. With all of this information now at hand, design professionals can design for the weight of the installation, including when actual components weigh more or less than the typical weights provided.
