Abstract:
The need for, advantages, and design of closely toleranced superflat concrete floors is described along with construction and inspection procedures for their installation. Used increasingly in high-density industrial warehouses, they improve operational efficiency while reducing maintenance costs on floors and materials handling equipment.
