Presenter: Don Brletic - Regional Sales Manager, Western Canada - Ardex Americas
Title: Floor Flatness (FF)/ Floor Level (FL) and early phase concrete management systems Don raises awareness of the disparity between Division 03 and Division 09 in the early phase of concrete construction management. Floor Flatness/ Floor Level requirements have a tremendous impact on the construction process as the flooring trade is one of the last trades on a project. At this late stage, strained budgets, cost over runs, remediation decisions and expensive recovery have a negative impact on the over all project which often leads to NFCA recommendations being compromised. |
You will learn about:
- Floor covering industry specifications available to all construction professionals for inclusion in project documents.
- NFCA floor installation standards, inspection services and problems we face in our industry.
- NFCA-approved moisture testing methods and alkalinity testing.
- Scope of Work - who is responsible on site for sub-floor correction, moisture testing, floor protection etc.
- Floor flatness challenges and what is required to get it right. Understand the FF (Floor Flatness) and FL (Floor Level) value system and why unacceptable concrete slabs continue to be provided to the flooring contractor. Understand the 10' straight edge test method and the standards for different flooring types.
