About this Event
Join for the first LINKS session of the year! Jaime Ruffing from Daltile will be joined with Greg Smith for this month’s presentation on Exterior Porcelain Pavers. 2 cm porcelain pavers are an innovative product of the tile market, introduced in the past five years. The product was developed to compete with traditional exterior hardscape surfaces. The 2cm (3/4") thickness, as opposed to a typical 3/8" thickness, allows the product’s use in more application types and with superior performance measures. This course will compare and contrast 2cm porcelain pavers with other hardscape substrates, and provide an average cost analysis of materials, proving that 2cm porcelain is the ideal option for exterior paving. After taking this course, landscape and hardscape designers will be able to make an informed value judgement based on performance, life cycle, and cost.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the features and benefits of 2cm porcelain pavers compared to other substrates such as concrete, natural stone, and brick.
- Understand the wide variety of visuals that are available in 2cm porcelain pavers.
- Determine which installation method is right for your project.
- Review a cost analysis comparing various hardscape materials.
RSVP by Friday, May 24th. Course will provide 1.0 continuing education credits. Lunch will be provided. Email Jackie Dietz with any questions at [email protected].
