Abstract
An edging form for use in forming a self-leveling floor includes an elongated body having a top face, a bottom face, and a first side face that extends between the top face and the bottom face, the body being made of a polymeric foam. A plurality of spaced apart channels extend entirely through the body from the top face to the bottom face and pass through at least a portion of the first side face.
Claims27
An edging form for use in forming a self-leveling floor, the edging form comprising:
- an elongated body having a top face, a bottom face and a first side face that extends between the top face and the bottom face, the body having a height extending between the top face and the bottom face in a range between 1 cm and 10 cm and a width in a range between 1 cm and 10 cm;
- and
- a plurality of spaced apart channels extending entirely through the body from the top face to the bottom face.
An edging form for use in forming a self-leveling floor, the edging form comprising:
- an elongated body having a top face, a bottom face, and a first side face that extends between the top face and the bottom face, the body being comprised of polymeric foam;
- and
- a plurality of spaced apart channels extending entirely through the body from the top face to the bottom face and passing through at least a portion of the first side face.
An edging form for use in forming a self-leveling floor, the edging form comprising:
- a body having a top face, a bottom face, an exterior side face extending between the top face and the bottom face and an interior side face extending between the top face and the bottom face, the interior side face at least partially encircling an opening extending through the body from the top face to the bottom face;
- and
- a plurality of spaced apart channels extending entirely through the body from the top face to the bottom face and passing through at least a portion of the exterior side face.
A method for forming a self-leveling floor comprising:
- securing an edging form to a subfloor so as to at least partially bound an area on which a self-leveling floor is to be formed, the edging form comprising:
- a body having a top face, a bottom face and a first side face that extends between the top face and the bottom face;
- and
- a plurality of spaced apart channels extending entirely through the body from the top face to the bottom face;
- dispensing a self-leveling flooring material onto the area in which the self-leveling floor is to be formed so that the self-leveling flooring material flows against the first side face or a portion of the top face of the edging form;
- and
- allowing the self-leveling flooring material to harden into a solid floor while the self-leveling flooring material is disposed against the first side face or the portion of the top face of the edging form.
