The new shopping centre in Bradford is the latest in a series of modern enormous shopping centres owned by The Westfield Group and opens in the autumn. MSC are responsible for laying a liquid screed floor to set datum’s before the final layer of tiles are laid. This process is being installed over several thousand square meters. MSC are doing this in areas of 800m2 up to 2500m2 in each visit. This system has recently featured on Sky News as a positive feature of the successful retail industry in Britain.
What We Did
The process is to vacuum shot blast the floor, apply a resin damp proof membrane, and then to pump the industrial screed in at between 20mm and 30mm in depth. The finished screed can be walked on within 2 to 3 hours depending on the temperature.
The Result
The job was completed in time and within budget to a satisfactory standard.
