Ensuring concrete slabs meet the stringent flatness requirements for modern floor coverings like LVT, sheet vinyl, and large format tile is crucial but often overlooked. The problem often arises from differing flatness measurement methods between Division 3 and Division 9, leading to costly change orders and disputes late in the project. In this webinar, Aaron will explore the challenges of slab flatness, who bears responsibility, and how proactive planning with self-leveling can prevent these issues. Learn from a real-world case study and discover smarter strategies to ensure flawless flooring installations.
