Timbre Floors
Posted: Tue Nov 16, 2004 12:16 pm
Hi there,
I have done some searching and haven't turned up the one thing i am wondering about. I was on the SAE site looking at the various floating floor configurations, and was wondering if anyone floats a sand filled timber framed floor on rigid fibreglass?
a couple of follow up questions. The front wall of a control room seems as though it would be quite heavy with the glass/doors [if that's where they're going] and soffited main monitors. would all this weight including the sand in the floor compress the fibreglass unevenly and cause sloping and sagging towards the front of the room?
I am quite thrilled to have found this forum as i will be attempting to build a studio in 2005, and i know i will have many questions. i also would like to express my gratitude to all the experts who contribute their time and ideas here to educate the newcomers like myself. thank you.
my goal between now and when construction begins is to come up with a control room design that can be adapted to a variety of spaces and remain a suitable workspace, so i am starting with the floor.
thank you in advance.
