Taiwan Raised Floor Quality - Access Floor Production Standard & Specification In Taiwan Market

Raised access floor system also enjoy good quality and reputation in the Taiwan market. Its effective circuit shuttle management provides convenient information services, shortens the construction period, reduces construction costs and establishes a comfortable working environment. In this article, let us explore the Taiwan raised floor market together and get know the production standards and quality of different types of raised floors in Taiwan.

In Taiwan's raised floor market, there are mainly four different types of raised floors based on the difference in materials, which have different functions and mechanical properties to meet the needs of different places. Similarly, as an important performance of raised floors, the load of each raised floor is also strictly required to be tested under the specifications of its national standard CNS10678-according to the types of raised floors submitted for testing such as type 300, 500, 700, and 1000, apply pressures of 300 kg, 500 kg, 700 kg, and 1000 kg respectively, and place a scale meter at the bottom of the floor to ensure that the floor deformation does not exceed the standard. In fact, the production standards for raised floors in Taiwan have followed the market norms for raised floor products in the Japanese market. The following is the performance specification of Taiwan raised floor:

Taiwan Raised Floor System Performance Specification (refer to CNS10678 A2171 standard)

• (1) Raised floor panel: concentrated load—the panel is at the center point of the panel surface under the concentrated load of 300kgf/6.45 cm

• The deflection value should be less than 2mm. And the breaking strength—the breaking strength at the center of the panel should be greater than 900kgf/6.45 cm.

• (2) Raised floor pedestal: The pedestal group must adopt a rust-proof iron pedestal structure combination method. The axial compressive strength of the pedestal should be able to withstand a load of 3000kgf of destructive strength without damage.

• (3) Raised access floor seismic truss stringer: the seismic beam system and the top of the base are fixed by screws to form a seismic structure, and it must comply with the central bending test of CNS10678 A2171. The yield load must be greater than 300kgf.

• (4) Surface covering: specification for PVC wear-resistant floor tiles: the size is 600×600×2 ㎜ / The tolerance of the thickness of the surface material (H.P.L) high-pressure laminated panel is ±0.05, according to the CNS 11366 and 11367 tests, the surface abrasion resistance: 8850 times or more.

• (5) The wear-resistant layer needs to have a super transparent wear-resistant layer, which can be wear-resistant and anti-fouling

• (6) The application of the base material layer should prevent the raised floor tiles from warping and reduce the shrinkage ratio, and the floor tiles should be attached to the panel and fully glued to the panel.

Taiwan Raised Floor System Mechanical Properties (Load Capacity)

Must meet the following test standards:

• (1) Impact resistance: impact test with 75kg sand bag from 0.5m height.

• (2) Heavy hit resistance: a heavy hit test with a 0.5kg heavy hammer steel ball falling naturally from a height of 1 meter.

• (3) Endurance load: load 80kg repeated 1 million times, and load 200kg repeated 500,000 times

• Abnormality.

Next, we will explain the quality and loading performance of Taiwan raised floors by category:

Alloy Steel Raised Floor

• Material: Cold-rolled steel plate is stamped and formed by spot welding, phosphated and treated with phosphoric acid film. Lightweight cement is filled inside to reduce noise and strengthen the function. The surface is powder coated to prevent oxidation and rust. There are 64 arc grooves on the back of the floor to increase the strength of its bearing structure.

• Surface: HPL, conductive floor tiles, PVC floor tiles, etc.

• Applicable places: information room, computer room, lecture room, office, dentist clinic, reception counter, etc.

• Load and fire performance:

Aluminum Raised Floor

• Material: Aluminum alloy ingots are formed by precision high pressure die-casting, and then processed by CNC to make various series of floors.

• Surface: HPL, conductive floor tiles, PVC floor tiles, stainless steel plates, bare surfaces

• Applicable places: clean room, data center, sterile room, general machine room, heavy machine room, information center, computer room, control center, etc.

• Load and fire performance:

Calcium Sulfate Raised Floor

• Material: The substrate is made of natural plant fiber, gypsum, and water in a certain ratio combined with solidified calcium sulfate crystals, and is manufactured through a pulse pressing process. The bottom is made of galvanized steel plate to protect the substrate and increase the load bearing; the four sides adopt 0.5mm thick ABS integrally formed edge protection.

• Surface: PVC floor tiles, marble, granite, etc.

• Applicable places: office, data center, computer room, electronic factory, etc.

• Load and fire performance:

OA Alloy Steel Floor

• Material: Cold-rolled steel plate is stamped and formed by spot welding, phosphated and treated with phosphoric acid film. Lightweight cement is filled inside to reduce noise and strengthen the function. The surface is powder coated to prevent oxidation and rust. There are 36 arc grooves on the back of the floor to increase the strength of its bearing structure.

• Surface: HPL, PVC floor tiles, carpet tiles, etc.

• Applicable places: office buildings, smart buildings, offices, classrooms, bank counters, etc.

• Load and fire performance:
