There is no 'need' for tiles on a house. If you had tiles on your house, then they would need to be waterproof if the function of said tile is to provide weatherproofing. If you just have (let's say) floor tiles on your house, then they'd need to be supported so they don't bend and buckle. If the tiles are to be on the roof, they should be able to handle the heat up there from the sun beating down on them. This question is very likely to be misinterpreted. It should be rephrased, because I'm sure the question in the poster's mind is not anything resembling the question as it was asked, literally.

If my house is 78'x26' how many 16x16 floor tiles would i used to purchase to cover the floor?

78 feet = 78 x 12 inches = 936 inches. To line one side of this with 16" tiles will take 58 and a half tiles. 26 feet = 26 x 12 inches = 312 inches. To line one side of this with 16" tiles will take 19 and a half tiles. So, you will need to buy 59 x 20 tiles (to ensure that patterns match) = 1,180. If the tiles are plain then you can use one tile to give two half-tiles and will only need 1,141 tiles.
