Why should the choice of indoor floor depend on the function of the building?

The indoor floor first needs to meet the basic requirements of having the necessary strength, wear resistance, bump resistance, smooth surface and easy cleaning.


The requirements for the strength, wear resistance and bump performance of the indoor ground vary according to the nature of the building. Generally speaking, the cement floor with good construction quality is very durable, but it is not wear-resistant enough for the cement floor in public places with a particularly large flow of people, or even the terrazzo floor. The plain cement floor should be used in the living room or in the room, which is hard and ugly. If the decoration requirements are high, the colored cement-coated floor or hardwood strip floor is used for the first degree. These kinds of floors are not only more wear-resistant, but also can be repaired, wrapped and repainted after several years of use.


For wet floors such as bathrooms and kitchens, floor tiles and mosaics are generally used. In special cases, polyurethane and other waterproof and elastic integrally coated floors can also be used.


The concepts of ease of cleaning are also different. Good-quality plastered concrete floors can be scrubbed with a wet mop. For general housing and office buildings, it can be considered easy to keep clean, but shops, hotel foyers, etc. have a relatively large flow of people. In restaurants, kitchens and other public places, it takes a lot of work to keep the cement floor clean. At this time, it will be better to make terrazzo and glazed tile floors, and terrazzo and glazed stone floors are specially used in rooms, which will dissipate heat from the feet. If you feel that the ground is too cold quickly, you should use wooden floor or plastic floor, because its low thermal conductivity will make people feel warmer and more comfortable. The painted floor is more suitable for the bedroom where there is less walking or where soft shoes are often worn, but the paint coating has poor adhesion on the concrete floor and is easy to peel off. With the improvement of living standards, most of the floor materials are currently laid Wooden floors must be waxed for maintenance, while carpets must be vacuumed or dry-cleaned. As long as they are used properly, they can be considered easy to keep clean.


In short, the choice of indoor floor should be determined according to different use requirements. The so-called high-grade floor not only has better appearance and decoration quality, but more importantly, its performance should meet the functional requirements. Improper selection of varieties cannot meet the requirements of use. Even if it costs more, it cannot be regarded as achieving the purpose of high-end decoration.
