Mistakes while doing Industrial Flooring.
- Weak Strength of concrete Floor- While doing Industrial flooring it is very import to have strength in flooring. PPC flooring is not good option for it. Tremix flooring is best option for Industrial flooring. Strength should be more than M20. Here M stands for Mix and Number for strength in N/mm2. Mixing ratio of M20 concrete is (1 Cement : 1.5 Sand : 3 Aggregates)
- Rough Finishing of Concrete Floor- Concrete flooring should have smooth finish. Rough floor can’t be clean easily. Dust and dart deposit in rough surfaces. It is very difficult to clan the floor. We can’t maintain hygienic condition in premises
- Undulation in Flooring- For easy material handling with trolley and fork lift, floor must be plan. Also floor gets easily damaged due to undulation in floor.
- No groove in floor- This is also one of the mistake many people do. When we lay a concrete floor. Floor starts doing movement of contraction and expansion. This, movement create crack in floor. To avoid create generation in flooring we must have to do groove cutting on 3 meter by 3 meter size square.
- Not doing Epoxy Flooring-It is very import to do Epoxy Flooring. Epoxy is an adhesive which has 3 times more strength than concrete floor. It’s come in many colors. It is smooth having anti microbial property.
Benefits of doing Epoxy Flooring-
- It protects concrete
- It makes easy material handling
- Easy cleaning so help to maintain hygienic condition
- Aesthetic look
- Increase lighting effects.
