I have a 14' X 18' dining room that i am going to split into two
rooms.

Rooms? At 14 x 9, they are a bit more than closets. Make the wall easily
removable because it may devalue the house as it is. Enloy the space as you
see fit but make it easier for hte nest owner to remove it.


I have a good idea of how i am going to tie the interior wall
going down the middle of the room to either side of the walls, my
question is what would be a good way to
fasten the bottom sill to the floor. The flooring is 12" X 12" ceramic
with standard underlayment or plywood underneath that. I am not sure
of how to get thru the tile without cracking or breaking it. Thanks
for listening


Given that it is not a load bearing wall, I'd drill and put a couple of
anchors. Between the tie at the ceiling and sides, it needs little bottom
support.
