If you are using 12 foot 2x6's over lapping 1 foot to make the 23" and supported along the center of the room you will need 14.
For 12" on center: 24(8ft) or 18(12ft)

Do you need a stone restorer to polish your travertine floors?

To tile a bathroom, you must first find the center of the floor or wall. This is where you will lay your first tile. You work out from there. This way you have the cuts where they are less noticeable. Use a trowel to place tile glue on the tiles, put them in place. Use spacers to keep them apart at an equal distance. Use a tile cutter to cut tiles in areas where a whole tile is not needed. Once you are done, remove the spacers and use a trowel to grout between the tiles. Wipe away excess grout with a wet sponge.
In simple terms what are fully vitrified tiles?
Vitrified tiles are made by combining 40% clay and 60% silica in a process called vitrification. The process of manufacture makes them extremely hard and non-porous - a great advantage over natural stones like marble which are porous and hence need a good deal of care. Vitrified tiles are virtually maintenance free and have very good abrasion resistance - which makes them very suitable for use in high traffic areas. And there is another huge advantage vitrified tiles have over most other floors. The designs on vitrified tiles are printed with soluble salts which are essentially penetrating pigments that penetrate to a depth of 2 to 3 mm below the surface of the tile ... and that means the design is present at depths of up to 25% of the tile's thickness! And the high hardness and abrasion resistance of vitrified tiles essentially means that the design is permanent for all practical purposes. In contrast, some floor polishes exist over the surface of the floor and have little abrasion resistance. But on the other hand, vitrified tiles are not currently available in a great variety of shades - at least not in as many shades as natural stone tiles are.
