Content Description

Porcelain Surface: A Design Professional’s Guide, 2024
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: LX-EN-192401-1224

This course introduces the learner to the benefits and design advantages of porcelain surface material for both indoor and outdoor use in residential and commercial projects. Since it is a relatively new material in the US, we will review its components and manufacture and how they result in a product with exceptional characteristics for human health and durability. We'll also show and discuss indoor and outdoor applications, the variations available for vertical and horizontal applications, and the many design options. Finally, we'll help the learner understand what is needed to design with this material and how to work with a fabricator.

Learning Objectives

  • Relate the raw materials and manufacturing process of porcelain surface to its environmental impacts and material performance.
  • Identify and obtain documentation to satisfy regulatory agencies and green certification standards such as LEED and hold manufacturers accountable for materials transparency.
  • Describe performance characteristics that contribute to the health, safety, and welfare of occupants, such as flame resistance, easy disinfection, and low VOC emissions.
  • Create porcelain surface designs that can be fabricated with standard methods.
