This detail illustrates newly installed ceramic, gauged porcelain, stone, or glass tile on exsiting gypsum board backing on existing steel or wood studs using a mortar bed method.

For an existing steel stud framed wall to be a candidate for tile retrofit, the studs must be 20 gauge or heavier, minimum of 3 5/8 inches thick, and spaced at 16 in. on center maximum. Optional profile strips are shown at the outside corner and at vertical expansion joints in the field of the wall spaced at specified intervals.
