Tiles & Tiling Guide

The ATC's Tiles & Tiling Guide has been developed to assist those within the Tile Industry, Builders, Architects, Designers and Specifiers to access and understand the main areas relating to Tiles and Tile Installation.

The Tiles & Tiling Guide was originally created by Tony Stock and is now updated annually by tile professionals from the ATCs Technical Committee, so it remains consistent with updates of the National Construction Code and referenced Australian Standards

ATC Members get free access to the latest versions of the guide. So if you’re a member, login here to download the latest version.
