Aligning Resilient Flooring specification sections in the Canadian National Master Construction Specification (NMS) with NFCA standards

Aligning Resilient Flooring specification sections in the Canadian National Master Construction Specification (NMS) with NFCA standards

Successful construction requires everyone to be on the same page. Getting on that page starts early and must be supported with correct specifications. To this end National Floor Covering Association (NFCA) is pleased to have worked with the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) to align the Resilient Flooring specification sections in the Canadian National Master Construction Specification (NMS) with NFCA standards for general use. This important update makes the latest information available to design authorities for inclusion in their project documents. This will benefit all involved in a resilient (linoleum, rubber, vinyl, VCT) flooring installation. Updates include substrate flatness, porosity, profile and testing requirements, indoor environmental conditions, scope of work and third party inspections (QAP). All critical factors to guiding success when working with modern day, low VOC, moisture and temperature sensitive flooring products in an increasingly fast paced construction environment. We look forward to working with the NRC on more flooring related updates. For more information go to: https://lnkd.in/ggdSBFv
