Floor slab must be:
- Level
- Structurally verified
- Marked to identify neoprene support locations
Recessed installations require dimensional agreement during early design phase.
Neoprene pads are supplied to correct minor tolerance variation and ensure level integration with surrounding floor finishes.
Other FAQs
What is the weight of a bathroom pod?
Pod weight depends on configuration and structural system.
How are pods positioned on site?
The text explains two main methods for positioning pods on site: top-down installation, where pods are placed before the upper slab is cast and integrated during the structural phase, and post-structure rolling installation, where pods are lifted into place by crane or platform and rolled into position before façade completion. The chosen method is determined during pre-construction coordination to match the building sequence.
What are typical wall and base thicknesses?
The pod construction is finalized during the design coordination phase. Available base options include a standard concrete base (approximately 2400 kg/m³), a lightweight concrete base (approximately 1800 kg/m³), and steel/tubular structural alternatives for projects with weight restrictions. Typical floor build-ups are around 90 mm for the standard configuration and 110 mm for walk-in shower or embedded drainage configurations. These dimensions include 10 mm neoprene support pads and a minimum 5 mm leveling tolerance. Final dimensions are provided in approved-for-construction drawings before manufacturing begins.
