jointless flooring Explanation: As you said, this is a floor surface without tiles as it is laid in-situ. According to the diciconario LID, this is a floor "cuya superficie acabada no tiene juntas, o escasamente perceptibles. Se incluyen chapadaso de todo tipo, moquetas y materials plasticos, ademas de terrazos" The Penguin dicitonary of Building states that the most common jointless flooring is a concrete slab, but it also includes toppings such as terrazzo, composition flooring, asphalt, etc. Please note that if your "pavimento" is inside (which is what it looks like), it cannot be paving or pavement Reference: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=%22jointless+flooring... |
