A process for applying an adherent surface covering to a subsurface so that the covering will accommodate dimensional change in the subsurface without buckling although in principle its critical buckle strain is less than the expected dimensional change, in which various properties, for example the relaxed compressive stiffness and the bending stiffness, of the covering are measured, calculations to enable an adhesive of appropriate properties to be selected are made, and the covering is applied using an appropriate adhesive. The reinforcement in a reinforced surface covering may alternatively be modified so that the relaxed compressive stiffness of the covering is low enough to accommodate dimensional change in a subsurface. |
