Flooring
technology is not just limited to the color, design or the texture
of the floor and is much beyond that now. Technology that can fulfill
various requirements according to the place where a typical floor is
installed has been developed and that has led to a lot of types of
floorings. The impact is long lasting and productivity of the place
becomes large. When we talk about the acoustic effect, we know it is
concerned with the sound. Acoustic Flooring is that can be helpful
especially in places where sound effect is more than what is
tolerable to the environment or at places where a special kind of
silence is required.
The
adverse effects of large sounds cannot be neglected as that not just
disturbs the health but also disturbs the total environment. Sleeping
disorder, hearing disorders, stress, mental disorders are also
resulted out of sound. When the acoustic flooring technology comes
into the picture all these effects can be reduced to minimum as the
floor has sound absorbing property. The overall building in fact can
be a more peaceful zone and many benefits can be achieved out of it.
Vinyl and linoleum floors that have the capacity to reduce the sound
up to 19dB are available now.
When
we talk about a Conductive Flooring on the other hand, we talk about
the electrical resistance to the ground. The resistance is an
electrical quantity that is the literal resistance of the wire of
conductor to the current and the unit of measurement is the ohm. What
this technology of floor does is simply minimize or remove the effect
of the electrical impulses on humans or any kind of equipment in the
room whether electronic or wooden or furniture or even an animal. It
is a mini version of a grounding technique. Sometimes, ground fault
interrupters may be installed in the buildings installed with
conductive flooring.
