SITE PREPARATION

The installation of an access floor requires a thorough understanding and control of the
building space receiving the access floor. Attendance at the pre-construction meeting is a
must. Be sure your requirements are known and understood by the General Contractor and/or
the Owner. This includes the following:

RISEAD FLOOR WORK

• Drawings showing size and configuration of the access floor area.

• Identification of material movement paths within the building. Plan your material paths from the trucks
to the access floor area.
• Arrange for any special equipment needed. The customer must provide a dry, accessible area to
receive and unload material.
• There should be a free path from an elevator and hoists to the area receiving the access floor
material.
• Agreement on means of access to the area: elevator, stairs, street level, loading dock, etc.
• Storage Conditions: Prior to the start of installation, a dry, secure storage space must be made
available for the access floor materials. It should be closed to the weather and should be adjacent to
the area where the floor will be installed.
• Power available during installation. (110 – volt 20 amp supply, minimum requirement).
• Work schedule of the other trades. All overhead work should be completed before the access floor is
installed. If overhead work is done after access floor installation and the access floor is to be used
as a work platform, then it must be adequately protected to prevent permanent damage. This can
be done by placing 3/4" sheets of plywood on the access floor.
• Installation Conditions: The installation area must be closed to the weather with the environment at
50°F to90°F and 20%-80 % relative humidity24 hours a day during and after installation. Tate
recommends that the floor be installed as close to the normal operating environment as possible.
Access floor materials must be stored in this environment at least 24 hours before the installation
begins.
• Identification of type and location of all equipment and services that will be on stands (for
example: air handlers, and power distribution units).
• Determine whether equipment will be installed before or after the access floor.
• Upon the start of installation, the installation area should be free of other trades and their material
and must have adequate lighting and power.
• The subfloor surface must be free of moisture, dirt, grease, oil, and other debris. If a non-approved
sealer (not one approved by Tate) has been applied to the subfloor, make certain the sealer is
• compatible with the pedestal adhesive. Test apply several pedestals as early as possible to be sure
required bond can be achieved.
• The condition of the subfloor should be checked before the start of installation to see if it is
spalled, broken, or dug out. The General Contractor should float a skim coat of cement over areas
that have these conditions. If these conditions are not corrected you may not be able to correctly
adhere and level the pedestals.

RAISED FLOOR WORK

• Subfloors other than concrete: Be careful of wood subfloors, vibration isolation pads, or concrete
floors with existing floor coverings. If you cannot avoid putting the access floor over one of these
subfloors, you should conduct overturning moment tests to ensure that the pedestals adhered to
them will meet the overturning moment specification
• Verify that the work conforms to the contract drawings and that the starting point is agreed upon
prior to commencing work.

STEP 1 – VERIFY FIELD DIMENSIONS VS. DRAWINGS AND CHECK SUBFLOOR FOR GRADE VARIATIONS

• Find the starting point in the room as shown on the drawings. This point is usually determined by
the Architect, Engineer, or General Contractor. If find that by using the designated starting point the
following conditions exist, ask for permission to move the starting point.
• Check the room dimensions with approved drawings. Set up the laser to verify that the subfloor is
within specifications. The laser will give a constant level line to use as a reference. Lasers with targets
designed for access floor installation are a must.
• Determine the exact finished floor height by locating the benchmark set by the General Contractor.
This could be a doorsill, curb, or a reference point marked on some structure such as a column.
• If the planned access floor elevation must be changed in order to meet the bottom of the door buck
or some other fixed structure, you need to verify that the pedestals are of the necessary height to
make this change. Keep in mind that the pedestals have limited adjustment ranges and that the
minimum stud-to-tube engagements must be maintained.

STEP 2 – CHECK STARTING POINT

• Panels to be cut at the perimeter will be 5" wide or less, thereby requiring supplemental support.
• You will hit objects on the subfloor that could be circumvented.
• The planned starting walls are crooked or not square.

STEP 3 - ESTABLISH CONTROL LINES FROM STARTING POINT

• Once the starting point is established, use chalk to lay out two perpendicular control lines
from the starting point (see Figure #3, control lines ‘A’ and ‘B’). These will be the control

lines for installing the access floor. They may be laid out with a tape measure

• For an exceptionally large floor, an electronic transit may be used to establish the control lines. If the corner
of the room is designated as the starting point, then the point should be located 24 inches from the two
adjoining walls in the designated corner.
• The control lines will then be used to check for out-of-square or ‘wavy’ wall conditions. With the lines
drawn along the entire length of each wall, check at various points along each line to determine if the
distance to the wall at any point is more than 24 inches. If this is the case, the entire control line should
be moved closer to the wall so that no measurement between the control line and wall is greater than 24
inches.

STEP 4 – SPREAD PEDESTALS

• Beginning 10 feet from the starting point, draw chalk lines perpendicular to each control line – at
10 foot intervals.
• This will create a grid, with lines 10 feet on center Each point of intersection in the grid will serve
as a pedestal shot point.
• The pedestals placed at the shot points will be used to set the height adjustments for all other
pedestals (with the aid of a 10-foot leveling bar). Once the lines are drawn, place all pedestals in
their approximate locations. Only the shot point pedestals need to be exactly located at this point.

STEP 5 – LEVEL PEDESTALS IN PROPER POSITION

• Using a laser, shoot in a pedestal assembly to the proper elevation at every chalk line intersection.
Once the pedestals at the intersections are adjusted to the proper elevation, the 10-foot leveling bar
will be used to position and set the height of the other pedestals

STEP 6 - ATTACH PEDESTALS TO THE SUBFLOOR WITH ADHESIVE

• Glue each pedestal base that has been set in place and leveled. Using a spatula-type device, tilt the
base plate without changing its location and apply adhesive to the bottom of the base plate . apply
the adhesive, scrape the spatula against the base plate to remove all the adhesive from the spatula.
• The adhesive should be oozing from under the base on at least three sides. This will give full adhesive
coverage to the bottom of the base plate.
• When installing mechanical anchors, you should install the entire floor by first attaching the
pedestals with adhesive. This gives you the opportunity to make final adjustments to the position of
the pedestals before they are permanently in place After the panels have been installed and all
pedestal adjustments have been made, you will have to remove every other row of panels to access
the pedestals for anchor installation (see Appendix for anchor specifics).
• Do not install the pedestals and stringers too far ahead of the panels. The placement of the panels
will determine the exact pedestal locations.
• Panels should be laid within 30 minutes after pedestal adhesive is applied. Pedestal adhesive
must still be wet installing stringers and panels. ensure that the stringer grid is straight and square
throughout the installation process.

STEP 7 - CREATE THE ‘L’ SECTION (POSILOCK™ AND STRINGER SYSTEMS)

• In order to create a square access floor, you will first need to create a section of the access floor that
is shaped like an “L”.
• The “L” section will be used like a giant carpenter’s square for installing the rest of the panels in the
room. Correctly installing this section is essential to the creation of a straight floor where panels do not
rock and where panels are easily removed and replaced.
• Creating the long leg of the ‘L’ section
6:18 • Begin laying in panels at the starting point – lay five rows of panels along the longer wall, making sure
that the pedestals nearest to the wall stay on the control lines. the leg is fully installed, you need to
verify that it is straight by installing a dry line or by using a laser line on top of the access floor.

INSTALL A DRY LINE

• tie a dry line to a pedestal at the wall and bring it to the floor surface between two panels Wrap
the line over a spacer and run it the entire length of the leg and attach it to the corresponding
pedestal at the other end – in the same manner that it is attached at the point of origin (with a spacer
at the top).

RAISED FLOOR WORK
CHECKING FOR AND CORRECTING UNWANTED CONDITIONS AS YOU INSTALL

• Regarding Posi Tile® installations: In addition to the checks described below, there are two tests
that must be conducted during the course of the installation when Posi Tile® carpet tiles are to be
installed on the access floor.
Rocking panel condition

As you lay out the panels, be sure they do not rock. If you do find “rockers,” try the following:
• Check for dirt or debris on the stringer or pedestal head and remove debris.
• Check the panel for a burr on the underside of the edge and remove the burr.
• Rotate the panel one-quarter turn. The rocker may simply disappear. If the panel rocks in a new
direction after it has been turned, set the panel aside and try another panel in its place. If the new
panel also rocks, lay another panel adjacent to it.
• If the adjacent panel rocks in the same direction, adjust the height or the perpendicularity of the
appropriate pedestal.
TILTED PEDESTAL CONDITION

• Make sure that all pedestals are perpendicular to the access floor panels. If a pedestal is tilting
due to irregularities in the subfloor, use additional pedestal adhesive and a metal shim if
necessary under the low side of the base plate to make it perpendicular.

• Make sure the entire gridline is straight . If it is not, you may be able to adjust it by bumping the rows of
installed panels with your foot. If this fails, take up every third or fourth row of panels and tap the bases
in the direction of the panels that have to be adjusted. All grid lines should be straight before installing
the perimeter panels! Caution.

STEP 8 - CREATE THE SHORT LEG OF THE ‘L’ SECTION AND FILL IN THE ‘L’
 PROJECT NAME: DATE:22-05-24

ENHANCEMENT OF JEBEL
ALI & AL QOUZ BUS
DEPOTS

METHOD STATEMENT AND DOCUMENT NO:

RISK ASSESSMENT: BW/025/AN/24
RAISED FLOOR WORK

• After installing the long leg of the ‘L’, the chaulk control line along the short wall needs to be kept
intact until the short leg is installed. Remember that the ‘L’ section of the floor dictates the
squareness of the rest of the floor. However, it is still possible (particularly in a long room) for a
curve to develop in small increments in the grid.
• Therefore, a laser line or dry line should be kept stretched along the short wall until at least a five-
panel-wide section of the floor is installed along its entire length. Lay five rows of panels along the short
wall, perpendicular to the long wall and Follow the previous step for laying panels and be sure to stay on
the control lines. After laying the complete ‘L’ section, check (and recheck) to be sure it is square!
• Install five rows of panels inside the ‘L’ – along either leg. The leg that choose to build upon will often
depend upon the immediate availability of an area or absence of obstructions.
• continue to build upon the ‘L’ in sections that are five panels wide until it is filled in laying panels in
the first section inside of the ‘L’, and should have someone spreading, leveling and preparing the
adjacent section for panels.
STEP 9 - INSTALLING PANELS AROUND LARGE OBSTRUCTIONS

• The objective here is to wrap a continuous rectangular frame around the obstruction that will be square
with the floor installed. After a continuous frame is constructed, install the cut panels around the
obstruction
Installing Section 1

• Install understructure and full panels as close as you can to the side of the obstruction
that approach.

Installing Section 2

• Install understructure and panels along an adjacent side of the obstruction – as close to the
side of the panels.

• The adjacent side that you choose is the one that faces the other leg of the original
‘L’ section.

RAISED FLOOR WORK

Laying Out Section 3

• The next step is to construct a parallel section of floor on the other side of the obstruction (opposite
of section.
• To do this you will snap a chalk control line on the subfloor that is parallel to the edge of the section
• This will be your control line for installing the section

To lay out the control line

• On the north side of the obstruction, measure the distance from the edge of the section to the
nearest gridline that exists on the opposite side of the obstruction
• Approximately 10 feet beyond the south side of the obstruction, measure the same distance from the
edge of the section and mark the other end of line.
Installing Section 3

• Position a row of pedestals on the control line, using it as a centerline for the pedestals.
• Install at least five more rows of pedestals parallel to the control line pedestals so that 5 rows of
panels can be installed. No more than 5 rows of panels should be installed at this point – it may be
necessary to move this entire section slightly if it is too close to (or too far away from) the adjoining
section on the south side of the obstruction that about to create (section 4). Make sure that pedestals stay
centered on control line.

Installing Section 4

• Once section 3 extends five panels beyond the south side of the obstruction, you can begin to fill in
the gap between sections 2 and 3. This will be section 4.
• When the entire frame is 5 panels wide on all sides and there are no gaps at the seams where the
sections meet, you are ready to install the cut panels around the obstruction.
• After installing the cut panels you can continue with the remainder of the floor.

INSTALLING PANELS AROUND COLUMNS

• ‘cut in’ panels around columns before installing panels at other perimeter areas. This sequence
will help to prevent the floor grid from getting out of the square. (Areas of the floor around columns
may have shifted due to foot traffic and material movement during construction).
• Before installing any cut panel, you must ensure that there are no gaps between surrounding panels,

RAISED FLOOR
and that all surrounding panels can be easily removed and replaced. Once installed, the cut panels
should not be loose.

INSTALLING PANELS AT OBSTRUCTIONS, CURBS, AND PERIMETER WALLS

• Obstruction, curb, and wall areas all fall into the ‘perimeter’ category. If there
is a perimeter area where full panels can be installed, this should be the first
perimeter area of installation.

• If there is not, you should start where the largest cut panels can be installed –
and then move to the area where the next largest cut panels can be installed (the
area with the smallest cut panels will be last).

• All cut panels should be measured and cut to fit for a specific location – cut
panels should never be interchanged!

• When the installation is completed, the Inspection Report (IR) shall be submitted to the
consultant.

It is important to monitor risk controls and review risk assessments regularly. Review is required when there is a change in the process, relevant legal changes, and where a cause for concern has arisen.
Reviews could be scheduled on an annual basis. If the risk assessment has substantially changed a new risk assessment is warranted.

Notes: Include legal and advisory documentation that supports this risk assessment be listed. Such documentation includes Acts, Regulations, Standards, where applicable. If the risk assessment for an identified hazard is ranked ’Low’
but the regulatory requirements have not been complied to while establishing and/or implementing controls, the ranking for the assesses risk shall be considered ‘Very High’

Risk Assessment Steps:

Step 1: Identify Hazards Title (e.g. Physical Hazard, Fire Hazard, and Electrical Hazards).
Step 2: List Hazards Details identified (e.g. Tripping Hazard, Flammable Materials stored, Working in Electrical Cabinets).
Step 3: List Causes of Hazard (e.g. Untidy workplace, Hot work, un-isolated electrical supply).
Step 4: List Consequences of Hazard (e.g. Personnel Injury, Fire, electric shock).
Step 5: Determine Likelihood and Consequences to People, Assets, Environment, and Reputation from attached Risk
Assessment Matrix (Page 2) (this should be the most probable outcome without controls and should be listed as 2A, 3D
etc.).
Step 6. Calculate the Risk Index using the Qualitative or Semi-Quantitative Risk Assessment Matrix as deemed appropriate.
This is a product of Likelihood and Consequence and should be stated Low, Medium, High or Very High). Likelihood Descriptor to assist in Qualitative Assessment of Likelihood/ Frequency of Occurrence.
Step 7. List Existing Controls. (e.g. Tidy Site Policy, Hot Work Permit, Isolation of Electrical Supply).
Step 8. List Safety Critical Activities and Additional Controls that may be deemed necessary to reduce risk level to ALARP. A
