All About Floor Screed (Fließestrich)

This morning I went to double check on the Damp Proof Membrane that was installed. I need to make sure that it was properly laid so it is ready for the next step, which is the installation of underfloor heating system plates. Since there were some places where I need to undo the job, I was only able to finish three rooms at the second floor. That means, I need to do the same work tomorrow 'til Friday.

While reading on the internet, I stumbled on the website Screedscientist.com. They have good reading articles that is got to do with screed construction.

The illustration below (from Flexelinternational) is how the construction of our floor should be-like, except that we are using an underfloor heating plate instead of the Fixing Band. Another thing is, we have a Damp Proof Membrane between the insulation board and underfloor heating plate. Last but not the least, we do not have a Floor Censor.




From my previous post, we already have until the Damp proof membrane. Hubby will soon install the underfloor heating plates and the heating pipes.
