Using string line and mark out edge of one floorboard squared then fix, joint of the floorboard should be staggered and fixing using specify galvanized flooring nail skewed spacing 150mm edge of board and 200mm middle of board. Apply Hold Fast Gorilla Grip to all edge of floorboard and 300mm cut holes on foil insulation.
Fix particleboard flooring then measure and cut plywood for wet areas, all joint of plywood must be setting on joist, extra nogs need to be fitted if there aren’t any inplace for nailing. Fixing to plywood flooring are the same to particleboard flooring. Be sure the push the boards tight as possible with glue squeeze out the joints and edge of the boards are flush.

ReplyDeleteWell done with all your post for subfloor. Because you have documented the building process so well you can now use it to review and reflect on. We can also tie this in well with your practical and theory marks.
Good work
