Product Information

In acoustic systems ensure that gaps where services come through the flooring are sealed to prevent airborne sound leakage.

Concrete ground level supported floors must have a damp proof membrane and screed complying with the appropriate Codes of Practice and Building Regulations. The best way to find a great insulation installer is through recommendations. Make sure you ask friends and family. They will most likely give you their honest opinion and can tell you from first hand experience.It is essential to isolate the skirting from the floor surface to prevent impact sound flanking transmission. BS 8201:2011 states that “it is reasonable to recommend that the concrete be considered dry when the relative humidity falls to 75% or less (when tested by use of a hygrometer). Comparing prices will also ensure companies can’t take advantage of you and give you a fair price. 4. Word of Mouth Treated floor meets with the New Build Robust Detail descriptive FFT2, typically within Robust Details E-FC-1, E-FS-1, E-FC-2 and E-FC-7. Forming a ladder frame structure directly beneath the sole plate using noggins of approx. 100mm supported on Cradles.

Lightweight timber or metal stud partitions with plasterboard linings may be constructed from the floating floor by forming a ladder frame structure. When laying alternate rows of Support Battens, commence with a half-length so that the joints are staggered. If it is intended that services run under the Support Battens a deeper Resilient Cradle Support should be specified and adequate clearance provided beneath the Support Batten.

Plastic Packers

All joints and air paths between concrete units and at perimeter walls must be carefully and thoroughly grouted for effective performance of acoustic floors. The standard 8mm Resilient Cradle Support will not allow for services to run underneath the Support Batten. Our shims are available as square shims, horseshoe shims and rectangular shims. These can be used for various applications. Horseshoe shims can be used when installing glass, spacing and aligning tiles whilst other shim types can be used for squaring up cabinets, adjusting floorboards, levelling wobbly toilets and much more. When the skirting board is being fixed to the wall, lightly trap the Flanking Strip between the bottom of the skirting and the flooring panel and neatly trim off the excess.

The position of the partitions should be marked on the structural floor before commencing the floor installation to ensure satisfactory support is provided and that services are correctly positioned. In areas where heavy loadings are anticipated, such as kitchens and bathrooms the Support Batten centres should be reduced to 300mm. Areas of structural floor beneath each intended cradle position should be smooth, flat and level to facilitate ease of the batten installation.To ensure consistent levels throughout the building, commence in corridor areas proceeding to rooms. Storage heaters are considered to be an extraordinary loading and will require support direct from the sub-floor, independent of the flooring system. The provision of access to services is most successful if the location of services is detailed at an early stage.
