Outline
The library, which was built in 1957 and has an old building with a collection of approximately 15 books, required a raised access floor, which was Network Floor 29, which is highly durable and has excellent disaster prevention properties.
The key points were that the product offers unparalleled user safety, with excellent fire resistance and the ability to easily secure heavy bookshelves to earthquake-resistant structures on top of the raised access floor.
Key points for recruitment
- Excellent walking comfort (products that do not rattle, ideal for libraries that require a quiet environment)
- Load-bearing capacity and product weight (as the building is old, we needed a weight that would not put a strain on the floor and a load-bearing capacity that could withstand the installation of heavy bookshelves)
- Combustion performance (fire resistance that protects valuable books from fire)
- Low-floor type and wiring capacity (products with sufficient wiring capacity while ensuring ceiling height)
- Earthquake-resistant fixing (heavy bookshelves can be earthquake-resistant fixed directly to the floor slab for greater safety)
