Steps

Search the TCNA publications site (tcnatile.com) and resellers (ANSI Webstore, Accuris) for the current ANSI A108/A118/A136.1 compilation and the standalone ANSI A137.1 specification
Confirm the TCNA-published compilation bundles A108 (installation methods) and A118 (bonding/setting materials test methods) together with A136.1 (tile backer board test methods) into one publication, commonly cited as 'ANSI A108/A118/A136.1'
Note that ANSI A137.1 (American National Standard Specifications for Ceramic Tile, covering the physical properties of the tile product itself) is a separate, standalone standard — it is NOT part of the A108/A118/A136.1 bundle and must be purchased/cited independently
Confirm no free official full-text version was found for either publication — treat both as paywalled unless the requester can show otherwise for a specific edition
Advise confirming the exact edition year cited in a spec (e.g., 'ANSI A108/A118/A136.1:2024' vs a specific 'ANSI A137.1' edition) before purchase, since the bundle and the standalone A137.1 are revised on independent schedules

Known gotchas

Do not describe A137.1 as bundled with A108/A118/A136.1 — it is a separately published standard covering tile product specification, while the bundle covers installation methods, setting/bonding material test methods, and backer board (A136.1)
A108, A118, A136.1, and A137.1 are distinct document families; owning the bundle does not satisfy a spec that separately cites A137.1, or vice versa
Bundled compilation editions and the standalone A137.1 edition can be revised at different times; verify each cited standard's edition year independently

Access Gypsum Association technical documents while distinguishing free vs. paywalled editions

Find free, non-paywalled technical guidance on architectural glass marking, labeling, or glazing design practice published by the industry association, rather than relying on a paid ASTM/ANSI standard.
