4) Staircase Area
As for the staircase area, it is compulsory to conduct installation with construction adhesive i.e. X-Bond construction glue as this adhesive has a very strong bonding agent for small areas like stair treads and risers, particularly onto cement screed surfaces.
Reasons for the staircase to be glued on are as follows;
- As a result of a very small area with the size of merely one panel of the floorboard, therefore, dilatation is minimal which confines to a single panel only.
- The shape and size of the staircase do not allow for
- ‘floating system’ as this could cause movement which is potentially dangerous to a homeowner.
Note: Due to the principle of the floating installation method, it is prohibited to affix any fixtures or fitting onto the sub-floor that would deter the required expansion.
