This paper proposes methods to prevent tile facings from falling off external walls. The methods introduce the concept of performance design for tile facings on external walls. In this paper, the specifications for tile facings are evaluated using the deformational performance test, and the allowable strain is obtained. The design strain is predicted from the deferential movement that develops in the tile facings on external walls. Finally, both are compared and the safety is confirmed. The safety provided by the specifications for the tile facings was verified by a trial design, and the validity of the proposed method was verified by actual performance on a building.
