Abstract
A novel prefabricated tile panel consisting of a rectangular or square substrate board having side-long rectangular convex and concave portions arranged regularly by turns around the sides of the rectangular or square shape and a multiplicity of tiles arranged regularly and bonded onto the substrate board is provided. The concave portion and convex portion are of specified dimensions, respectively. The convex portions are protruded and the concave portions are set back from the tiles arranged and bonded in a rectangular or square shape. Thus, the prefabricated tile panels can be assembled without trouble by inserting the convex portions of one panel in the concave portions of other panel or panels for installation of the tile panels. The prefabricated tile panel can be produced efficiently by using a frame which has matrices for tiles arranged at a tile-joint interval in a rectangular or square form and is equipped with guide members around the frame for accepting the substrate board in a predetermined position.
