Abstract
A method for manufacturing a layered tile comprising a mutually connected ceramic tile and a concrete body, the method comprising the steps of applying an organic primer to a first surface of the ceramic tile, optionally positioning the ceramic tile in a mold, exposing the first surface, applying a concrete mixture on top of the tile's first surface, pre-hardening the concrete mixture for obtaining a green product, removing the product from the mold, and fully hardening the concrete for obtaining the layered tile.
Claims20
A layered tile for use in gardens and on terraces comprising:
- a ceramic tile;
- a concrete body;
- said ceramic tile and said concrete body mutually connected;
- an organic primer, said organic primer disposed on a first surface of said ceramic tile;
- said organic primer directly coupling said ceramic tile to said concrete body, wherein the only material between said ceramic tile and said concrete body is said organic primer;
- said concrete body comprising at least two side walls;
- one or more spacers, said one or more spacers formed on at least one of said at least two side walls of said concrete body, each of said one or more spacers protruding from a remaining portion of its respective side wall of said concrete body;
- and
- said ceramic tile comprising at least two side-edges, each of said at least two side-edges substantially coplanar with a respective one of said at least two side walls of said concrete body.
A layered tile for use in gardens and on terraces comprising:
- a ceramic tile;
- a concrete body;
- said ceramic tile and said concrete body mutually connected;
- an organic primer, said organic primer disposed on a first surface of said ceramic tile;
- said organic primer directly coupling said ceramic tile to said concrete body, wherein the only material between said ceramic tile and said concrete body is said organic primer;
- said concrete body comprising at least two side walls;
- one or more spacers, said one or more spacers formed on at least one of said at least two side walls of said concrete body, each of said one or more spacers protruding from a remaining portion of its respective side wall of said concrete body;
- said ceramic tile comprising at least two side-edges, each of said at least two side-edges substantially coplanar with a respective one of said at least two side walls of said concrete body;
- said concrete body comprising an aggregate;
- and
- said aggregate comprising at least one of:
- sand, said sand comprising an average particle dimension of maximally 4 mm;
- and
- a granulate other than sand, said granulate other than sand comprising an average particle dimension of between 2 mm and 8 mm;
- cement;
- and
- blast furnace slag.
A layered tile for use in gardens and on terraces comprising:
- a ceramic tile;
- a concrete body;
- said ceramic tile and said concrete body mutually connected;
- an organic primer, said organic primer disposed on a first surface of said ceramic tile;
- said organic primer directly coupling said ceramic tile to said concrete body, wherein the only material between said ceramic tile and said concrete body is said organic primer;
- said concrete body comprising at least two side walls;
- one or more spacers, said one or more spacers formed on one or more side at least two side walls of said concrete body, each of said one or more spacers protruding from a remaining portion of its respective side wall of said concrete body;
- said ceramic tile comprising at least two side-edges, each of said at least two side-edges substantially coplanar with a respective one of said at least two side walls of said concrete body;
- said concrete body comprising an aggregate;
- and
- said aggregate comprising at least one of:
- sand in an amount of between 15% and 30% weight basis;
- a granulate other than sand in an amount of between 55% and 75% weight basis;
- cement in an amount of between 4% and 12% weight basis;
