    Setting Out How does this modular pattern work?

    On the diagram the width of tiles equates to 2m for both the rows marked 1 & 2. Row 1 has 6 grout lines Row 2 has 4 So total width of the rows is different, meaning grout spaces would have to be smaller on the row with more grout lines? What am I missing? Thanks
