ELEVATED FLOOR INSTALLATION

ON AN ADJUSTABLE SUPPORT

■ Can easily be removed, inspected, reused.■ Available for different kinds of support.■ Ideal for hiding from sight wiring and pipes, while keeping

them easily accessible.

For further information read chap. 3.4

CAUTION• When carrying out an elevated floor installation it is important to check the specific intended use and to follow the installation

directions detailed in chapter “4.4 - Instructions for elevated floor installations: sizes, supports and reinforcement systems”.• In the case of external dry installations, the force of the wind, in particular types of applications or geographical locations, can

cause the lifting of the slabs. It is recommended that the designer/client always check the suitability of the installation system selected according to local regulations in force.

Failure to follow the above recommendations may result in misuse of the product and cause injury to persons and/or damage to property.

ON A FIXED SUPPORT

■ Can easily be removed, inspected, reused.■ Available for different kinds of support.■ Ideal for hiding from sight wiring and pipes, while keeping

them easily accessible.

THE ADVANTAGES OF ELEVATED FLOORS

Great for hiding pipes and wiringThe gap between the floor and the membrane below, allow for the passage of pipes and wiring that are hidden yet easily accessible.

Better thermal insulationThe gap between the floor and the membrane below, favours a constant flow of air which improves the lifetime of the waterproofing membrane as well as thermal insulation.

Rapid draining of waterThe small joint between the tiles, allows for a quick run-off of the water, that is then drained through the slope of the floor base below. We recommend installation with a minimum joint of 3mm. So as to have optimal draining of the elevated floor it is important to prepare the necessary slopes during installation. It is important to note that Margres porcelain tiles have extremely low water absorption rates and are therefore completely frost resistant. These characteristics may result in stagnation of water close to the edges of the tiles, even if the installation is done perfectly.

High resistance to loadsThe robust structure of the support, that is due to both the experience required to formulate the chemical compound, as well as to the continuous thread, guarantees a strong, safe and long lasting product.

Flooring which is always flatand easily accessibleThe elevated system compensates for small differences and slopes of the laying surface creating a perfectly stable and flat paved surface and, where necessary, with the required slope for better water drainage. In the case of installation on waterproofing membrane, the membrane is easily accessible and inspectionable, as the flooring is simply placed on the supporting elements.

Excellent compression and expansion absorption characteristicsThe decoupling of the flooring and the supporting elements assists the absorption of the structural movements and expansion.

Significant weight reductionBy eliminating the cement screed, the elevated system reduces substantially the weight on the structure and reduces costs.

Better acoustic insulationThanks to its anti-slip and anti-noise head, the adjustable Eterno Ivica support is able to reduce the sound level to 25dB.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:The Modular Raised Floor (MRF) is a detachable and removable system. It consists of a bearing structure and inspectable panels that form a walkable surface with a LINEA finish.The MRF system has all the requirements essential for modern "intelligent" buildings which are highly eco-friendly and LEED / BREEAM certified. The MRF has a high content of recycled material and offers excellent acoustic comfort to both airborne and impact noise. It is fire-resistant, does not store electrostatic charges and has a high resistance to accidental loads. The MRF can be produced with adjustable shims and supports so as to optimise the space for wiring and piping.The MRF can be produced upon request in a special anti-seismic version, certified for earthquakes up to 7° on the Richter scale.The Modular Raised Floor (MRF) is made of:● Top finish: LINEA ;● Structural Core: high density anhydrous calcium sulphate, fire-proof (Class A1 fire reaction), adjustable thickness, so as to optimise

space for wiring and piping yet offer a high resistance to loads● Protective perimeter edge: in self-extinguishing polymer with a colour similar to the upper finish;● Lower finish: special sound absorbing film made of self-extinguishing polymers;● Vertical supports: moulded and ribbed galvanized steel designed to withstand high accidental loads;● Joints for acoustic decoupling: designed with a special insulating material to meet the standards required by regulations (Decree

05.12.1997 ), with regards to the passive acoustic requirements of buildings.

Many module types as well as finished floor heights (between 6 and 200cm) are available; such as anti-seismic and sound insulating, dry heating systems or sealed for hospitals, cleanrooms or residences.

The performances of a raised floor system are defined by the Standard UNI EN 12825:2003. The following are the main features of a finished floor 20cm high, as required by the standard:
