The subfloor or underfloor as i like to call it shall not deviate more than 3 16 of an inch in ten feet photo 1 shows a ten straight edge.
Floor tile straight edge tolerance.
The ansi a108 02 standards say that acceptable lippage for floor tiles with a grout joint width of 1 16 to less than 1 4 is 1 32 plus the allowable inherent warpage of the tile.
However as of 2011 subsurface tolerances for tile installation based on tile unit size have been updated in the tcna handbook.
There are tolerances for the type of finishes on concrete floors as specified in bs en 13670 2009 and elaborated on in national structural concrete specification nscs 4th edition and follow as below these are generally measured using straight edge and wedges as surface regularity is above.
Installation instructions from most major flooring manufacturers reference astm standard f 710 for hard surface resilient flooring.
There are tolerances for tile lippage.
Floor levelness tolerances evaluate the effect of different construction methods on resulting floor surface.
Tile size affects tile installation.
A sample area must.
Since it applies only to the tile s edges it is called an edge treatment.
Additionally the edges are usually precisely cut at a square.
Tolerances for modern rectified edge tiles are expected to be extremely tight.
For tiles with all edges less than 15 the maximum allowable variation is 1 4 in 10 and no more than 1 16 in 12.
The standard simply defines the required flatness of a concrete subfloor.
300mm apart taken along straight lines in a prescribed pattern within each sample area.
In faux wood tile sophistication we mentioned how important it is to pay attention to offsets when installing tile the reason.
If your tile has a rectified machine trimmed edge then there is a higher requirement for size control as the joint gaps will be narrow.

What it is.
If the grout joint width is 1 4 or greater then the allowable warpage is 1 16 plus the allowable inherent warpage of the tile.
Tolerances when tiles 8 x 8 or larger had been selected.
For large format tiles with one.
