Why should you use BS 8201 - Installation of wooden flooring
This revised code of practice has been modified to reflect more appropriately the growing popularity of wood and wood-based panels installed as finished flooring and, of necessity, as underlayment for finished wood flooring (but not for subsequent installation of carpet or resilient flooring).
BS 8201 outlines the most up-to-date specifications involved in laying flooring and illustrates typical constructions on which it might be laid. The words “timber” and “wood” in this British Standard cover softwoods, hardwoods and wood-based panels, as appropriate in the context.
What’s changed since the last update?
- BS 8201 has been fully revised by experts to bring it up to date with technological developments and industry best practice
- New materials and products are included in a new section 2
- Consideration is increasingly being given to the specification of wood and wood products with regard to legality and sustainability of source
