what is engineered flooring?
building materials from okorder
Engineered wood, or a flooring, is a structurally strong wood made up of 3 or 5 plys ( usually 3) of wood. Each ply is crossed and glued to each other. The top ply usually made of the wood or choice such as oak, maple, cherry etc. The pcs themselves are mill to exacting standards or engineered to precise standards. Usually thinner than solid wood, anywhere from a 1/4 to 5/8 thick. These flooring are made to be installed in several ways to fit many needs, such as stapled, glued,or made into a floating floor system. Any questions you can e mail me through my avatar. GL
