PART 1 - GENERAL
1.01 Description
A. The information herein details a high profile
cushioned system comprised of factory
pre-drilled sleepers with 48 durometer 7/16"
AIRTECH natural rubber pads attached 12" o.c.
anchored to the concrete with drive pins and
finish flooring.
B. The general contractor shall provide a level
slab, steel troweled to a tolerance of plus or
minus 1/8" in a 10'0" radius and subject to the
approval of the wood floor contractor. Moisture
barriers must be adequate for conditions. The
concrete slab is to be depressed 2" plus the
thickness of the flooring specified.
1.02 Quality Assurance
A. All system component parts must be supplied
by Action Floor Systems, LLC. of Mercer, WI.
B. The Flooring contractor must be approved by
Action Floor Systems, LLC. of Mercer, WI.
C. Flooring materials must be allowed to
acclimate to building conditions on the job site
in a dry, well-ventilated area, not in contact
with masonry, and shall be installed at a
moisture content not to exceed 8% except in
areas of constant high humidity where the
moisture content of the flooring shall not
exceed 10%.
1.03 Working Conditions
A. The wood flooring shall not be installed
until all masonry, plastering, tile, marble, and
terrazzo work is completed, and overhead
mechanical trades and painters have finished in
wood floor area. The building must be reasonably
dry; all openings must be closed in; permanent
heating, ventilating and air conditioning
systems installed and operating before, during
and after installation.
B. The concrete slab shall be dry, free of
foreign materials, and turned over to the wood
floor contractor broom clean. Moderate room
temperature of 65 degrees or more shall be
maintained a week preceding and throughout the
duration of the work. Humidity conditions within
the building shall approximate humidity
conditions which will prevail when the building
is occupied. If prior experience indicates
relative humidity during sustained heating
periods will fall below 35%, building
engineering shall introduce moisture into the
area when required. Conversely, if relative
humidity increases to 50% or higher, measures
should be taken to bring the relative humidity
back under control. This may require turning on
the heat.
1.04 Warranty
A. Action Floor Systems, LLC. warrants the
material it ships to be free from defects in
materials and workmanship for a period of one
year and the flooring installer warrants the
installation of the flooring to be free of
defects in materials and workmanship for a
period of one year. The exclusive remedy under
this warranty shall be replacement of defective
material supplied by Action Floor Systems, LLC.,
or correction of defective installation by the
flooring installer. All implied warranties of
merchantability or fitness for intended use are
limited to the period of this warranty. This
warranty excludes consequential damages.
B. This warranty does not cover damage caused by
fire, winds, floods, chemicals or other abuse,
or by failure of other contractors to adhere to
specifications, or neglect of reasonable
precaution to provide adequate ventilation
during hot and humid weather. This warranty
excludes damage due to excessive dryness or
excessive moisture from humidity, spillage,
migration through the slab or wall or any other
source. This warranty also excludes damage to
floors due to ordinary wear and tear, faulty
construction of the building (other than the
flooring installation), separation of the
concrete slab underlying the floor, settlement
of walls, or use of water on the floors.
C. During period of the warranty, the floor
cannot be coated without the approval of the
flooring contractor.
