| ResinDek®
Installation Instructions |
|
1.
ResinDek®should be installed over corrugated metal
B-decking or an existing mezzanine
floor surface.
ResinDek is not intended for
exterior applications. RESINDEK
PRODUCTS NOT INSTALLED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING
INSTRUCTIONS WILL VOID ALL
WARRANTIES.
2. ResinDek panels must
be kept dry in transit, storage,
during and after installation. Panels
should be stored
flat in a level position.
3. ResinDek
Installation Process:
Begin
installation by setting a true line with a laser or
transit less than 48"
from one edge of mezzanine.
Leave
a 3/8" gap/space on outer edges of ResinDek,
and leave 1/8" gap/space
between ResinDek panels.
Trim the last row of
panels to allow for the 3/8"
gap/space on outer edges
of ResinDek perimeter.
Attached
to each unit of ResinDek is a package of 3
panel spacers. Insert
metal spacers (2 along one long
edge, 1 along a short
edge) between all adjacent panels.
FAILURE TO USE METAL
PANEL SPACERS
MAY ALLOW FLOOR TO BUCKLE
AND WILL
VOID ALL WARRANTIES.
Attach
panels to corrugated metal B-deck or other
approved subflooring using
a minimum of 20 fasteners
per 4' x 8' sheet. (See Figure
A)
For best results, use
ResinDek screws furnished by us.
Fasteners should be located
a minimum of 1" from
tongue and groove edges
and from square edges.
Remove panel spacers and insert
between next panels.
Be
sure that panels are installed with the correct face
on top. When correctly laid,
the arrow on the square
edge of the panel should point
up and panels should
have a space of a panel spacers
width around the
perimeter of each ResinDek
panel, and about 1/4" on
the underside of the tongue
and groove. The
gap/space will always be larger
on the underside.
Stagger
panels so that joints break on different ribs
wherever possible.
ResinDek
can be installed with the long direction
parallel or perpendicular
to the corrugate metal
B-deck. All panel joints should
break on ribs.
6" wide x 20 gauge minimum
steel shims must
be used when ResinDek breaks
on a valley.
(See Figure B)
Fasteners
must be long enough to penetrate both the
ResinDek and the subfloor.
Secure each panel with a
minimum of four fasteners before
installing the next
panel. Use only screw guns
with a nose clutch to
countersink screw heads. DRIVE
FASTENERS SO
THAT THE COUNTERSUNK HEAD IS
JUST
BELOW THE PANEL SURFACE.
ResinDek
can be trimmed to size with ordinary power
saws. Use carbide tipped blades
for best results.
3/8"
perimeter gaps/space can be hidden with toe strips
or kick plates.

ResinDek Pallet
Load Recommendations
(pallet jack and load)
Do
not exceed 2,000 lbs. live & dead load on
ResinDek® LD.
Do
not exceed 3,000 lbs. live & dead load on
ResinDek® MD.
Do
not exceed 4,500 lbs. live & dead load on
ResinDek® HD.
Substructures must be capable of supporting the above
loads. Failure of substructure may result in local failure
of ResinDek. Use 20 gauge or heavier corrugated metal
B-deck for substructure. 18 gauge is recommended for
2 ,500 lb. loads or greater.
5. ResinDek
Cleaning & Maintenance
If
ResinDek with Clear Diamond Seal®, Gray
Diamond Seal® or ESD
finish has been installed,
the surface is quite cleanable
and durable. Unfinished
ResinDek will clean up similar
to other unfinished
wood products.
ResinDek
with Clear Diamond Seal®, Gray
Diamond Seal® or ESD
finish can be easily cleaned
using a damp mop and/or ordinary
cleaning solvents.
Do not use methylene chloride
or paint thinners on
ResinDek.
Prolonged
and extensive soaking, hosing down, or
wetting of all ResinDek products
must be avoided. |

WARNING:
Common installation mistakes that
can void your 7-year warranty |
 |
 |
Must
use screw driver/gun with operable clutch
for consistent screw depth setting. For best
results, use stand-up screw gun. |
Do
not use screw driver/gun with no clutch or a
broken clutch. |
 |
 |
Panels
must meet on high points (ribs) of
corrugated B-Decking. |
Do
not place panel edges on top of corrugated
B-Decking low points (valley). |
 |
 |
Approved
screws must be placed just below
the panel surface. |
Do
not place approved screws too high or too
low in the panels. |
 |
 |
|
Use
pacers between panels for correct spacing.
3/8" space/gap on outer edges (perimeter). |
Do
not install panels without 3/8" gap/space
on outer edges of panel and gap/space between
panels. |
