When considering flooring for fire rescue environments, several factors are crucial due to the nature of the work:
- Slip resistance, while maintaining ease of cleaning
- Chemical resistance
- Ability to handle extremely heavy loads (a fully loaded fire truck can weigh in excess of 38k pounds)
- Line markings for apparatus bays can be inlayed in epoxy or polished concrete systems.
- When specifying resinous systems, it is imperative to consider slab finishing techniques, surface prep, transitions, and crack, joint, drain and termination detail.
