fLOOR INSTALLATION (Shim Leveling Method)
for walk-ins subject to light to moderate loads
Locate the highest point within the perimeter lines. A transit or surveyor's level or rotary laser level is an ideal
instrument to use for locating this point. When the highest point is
located, mark it directly on the floor and refer to the erection diagram
to determine where the high point is located with respect to the walk-
in floor plan.
One of the most important procedures that will be encountered in
the erection of a walk-in with a floor is LEvELING THE fLOOR.
It must be PERfECTLy LEvEL! If it is not, the wall panel will
follow the irregularities of the walk-in floor which will directly affect
subsequent procedures such as latching, panel gasket seal, ceiling
panel assembly among others.
Using the erection diagram as a guide, select the floor panel that
will be located directly over the highest point and place it in that position while observing the drawn outline on the
building floor.
After the first floor
panel is positioned,
it must be properly
leveled. To achieve
this, shimming material
of varying thicknesses
must be used. Cedar
building shingles are
ideally suited for this
procedure.
IMPORTANT! EVERY
FLOOR PANEL MUST
BE SUPPORTED ON
ALL FOUR SIDES
AND THE ENTIRE
UNDERSIDE, AT
LEAST EVERY 12"
BY EITHER THE
BUILDING FLOOR
OR BY SHIMMING.
HOWEVER, OTHER
MATERIALS THAT
ARE RESISTANT TO ROTTING OR COMPRESSION ARE ALSO ACCEPTABLE.
After the first floor panel has been leveled perfectly, trim away the excess shim material so that none projects from
the panel at any of the four edges.
From the erection diagram, determine which floor panel will be installed next and where it will be situated on the floor
plan. Prepare shimming material for the second panel at each point where shimming material was used beneath the
first floor panel. The shimming material thickness must be such that it will support the
second floor panel at exactly the same height as the first panel along the entire length of the joint. NOTE: In many
cases, the shimming material will be the same thickness as the adjacent shimming under the first panel.
