Analysis: shallow raised floors
Raised floors — independent floor surfaces raised above the structural floor surface to create a surface void — were developed to solve the problems presented by cable proliferation in computer rooms. From this early, specialist application the technique has now spread far beyond the computer suite to cope with the increased servicing needs of the general office area. The first issue of Facilities covered the deeper, platform or jacked floor type: this article is concerned with the provision of a shallower void — commonly by means of some sort of batten and particle board system — and with the issue of cable management in general.
