bolstered
Cornell
University’s
efforts at the 2007
Solar Decathlon with
the donation of raised
access flooring systems
that were used in
the design and construction
of the Cornell’s
solarpowered home.
Incorporating raised
access floors allowed
for significant adjustments
to be made to wiring
and ventilation systems
without the need
for altering walls
or other key support
structures. The result
was a more sustainable,
energy efficient home,
and Cornell’s
team being selected
as one of the 20
participating teams
this year. |
New
Data Center Brochure
Tate
is pleased
to present
our latest
market brochure
on underfloor
service distribution
for the Data
Center environment.
Although this
sector continues
to use raised
floor with
underfloor
air in almost
every instance
heat loads
and energy
efficient
designs
have
become a very
active topic. Unlike
our other
market brochures
the data
center
brochure
is
not design
specifically
to educate
the users
on the benefits
of underfloor
service distribution.
Rather, the
brochure
was
created to
provide the
reader with
a list of
best practice
design
features
which should
be considered
while they
are designing their raised
floor datacenter. Order

Important
New Load
Criteria
from TateASP
Access Floors67
KB
TateASP's
performance
selection charts now
list “Design Load” ratings
in place of concentrated
load ratings.
The long-used concentrated
load rating merely verifies
that a floor panel will
deflect no more than
its specified limit under
its specified load capacity
while supported by steel
blocks (blocks are used
to simulate the vertical
and lateral support of
understructure systems).
While this rating is
useful for distinguishing
panel grades, the design
load rating better represents
how a floor system will
perform in a real installation
because it is based on
tests conducted with
panels supported by actual
understructure. |
