Tiling Onto Timber Floor With 4 Inch Joists

im sure you know already but didn't want to assume, you will still need a movement joint in the tiles.
Unless permat is capable of bridging sufficiently? But I'm sure Ray will clear that up.
Apparently it can but I'm always dubious of such witchcraft.

PS if you line your grout join up with the two floors this will give you even more movement scope
