Definitions

  • This invention relates to an access floor structure of the type including one or more floor panels.
  • the panels are usually supported at or adjacent to each corner on pedestals go that the floor panels are supported by the pedestals in spaced-apart relationship from a main structural floor of a building, thus enabling mains services, such as electrical cables, to be disposed therebeneath.
  • the floor panels in use it is necessary for the floor panels in use to be capable of supporting loads which are placed thereon and it is desirable for the floor panels to have good sound and thermal insulation properties in addition to being fire resistant and having a wear resistant surface.
  • an access floor structure includes, one or more floor panels comprising a plane laminar panel member and a sheet metal panel disposed in touching contact with the lower surface of the plane laminar panel member, wherein the sheet metal panel has one or more elongate continuous ribs or channels formed therein extending across the full width of said metal panel.
  • metal support beams connected to and extending transversely of the ribs or channels in the metal panel are provided on opposite sides of the panel.
  • the upper surface of the plane laminar panel member has a sheet of metal mounted thereon.
  • edges of the panel are, preferably, provided with side strips connected to the sheet of metal mounted on the upper surface of the plane laminar panel member and enclosing the metal support beams.
  • the plane laminar panel member is formed of a wood composite material such as chipboard.
  • a full or partial access floor structure comprises one or more floor panels indicated generally at 10 which are supported at or adjacent to each corner thereof on pedestal units (not shown)so that the or each floor panel 10 is disposed in spaced-apart relationship from a main structural floor surface of a building (not shown) thus enabling mains services such.as electrical cables, to be disposed therebeneath..
  • Each floor panel 10 comprises a plane rectangular laminar panel member 12 formed of a wood composite material such as, chipboard or the like.
  • a sheet metal panel 12 is mounted in touching contact with the lower surface of the panel member 12 so that loads imposed on the panel member 12 are borne by the panel 14. The bending stresses and shear loads on the panel member 12 are thus carried by the panel 14 and the panel member 12 is primarily subjected in use to only compression loading.
  • the panel 14 has a plurality of spaced-apart channels 16 formed therein to increase the strength thereof, the channels 16 extending across the full width of the panel 14.
  • Two metal support beams 18 are mounted on opposite sides of the panel 14 and are welded thereto so as to extend transversely of the channels 16. The load on the panel 10 is thus carried by the channels 16 and the support beams 18 to the corners of the panel 10 which are located on the pedestal units (not shown) of the access floor structure.
  • the upper surface of the panel member 12 has a sheet of metal 20 mounted thereon to provide a wear resistant surface and the edges of the sheet_20. are folded downwardly to connect with substantially L-shaped metal edge strips 22.
  • the edge strips 22 are disposed at each edge of the panel 10, and the horizontal flanges of these strips engage under the marginal portions of the panel 10, so that they enclose the metal support beams, and provide additional structural support.
  • the panel 14, the beams 18, the sheet 20 and the strips 22 will preferably be formed of mild steel, it will be appreciated that these components could be formed of other metals without departing from the scope of this invention.
  • the formation of the floor panel 10 from a combination of metal and wood composite provides a floor panel which is of high strength by utilisation of the advantageous properties of the wood composite when subjected to compression loading in combination with the advantageous properties of the metal channel configurations of the panel 14 together with the metal support beams 18 in resisting bending stresses and shear loading. Furthermore, the good sound and thermal insulation properties of wood composite are also combined in this floor panel with the wear resistance and fire resistance properties of the metal components thereof to provide an access floor structure and particularly a floor panel therefor in which the disadvantages of the known panels hereinbefore referred to are alleviated.
