Pumping into a BMW DEALERSHIP!

BMW DEALERSHIP, SEATTLE, WA

LATICRETE SUPERCAP had the opportunity to demonstrate to Foushee and Associates (one of Seattle’s leading general contractors) the amazing power of our state-of-the-art system. The project was challenging, as floor tolerance specification for the 14,000 s/f showroom was stringent. Time was of the essence, as well; we were asked to help engineer a solution. The floor was surveyed to determine the exact quantity of material necessary to achieve the ceramic tile specification of (1/8” in 10’). In just two days, the substrate was cleaned, set to grade with level pegs, primer applied, and poured, with an average of 3/4” of LATICRETE SUPERCAP Regular.

The first day was spent surveying, setting elevation pins and priming. The second day we poured. Just seven days later, with an average FF of 71, the tile installation started!

Bravern Project, Bellevue, WA

The LATICRETE SUPERCAP System was chosen by Skanska along with various GCs and flooring contractors at the Bravern site. We were asked to use their expertise and technology to go deep, pour overnight, hit very tight flooring specifications, go from the top down, match all entrance and hallway elevations, all without damaging the finished spaces or interfering with other trades at the site.

The LATICRETE SUPERCAP System was able to shine, using our custom-built Pump Truck/Mobile Blending Unit to pour at record speeds from street level. This allowed the contractors to complete the job prior to the projected deadline, which in turn allowed finished flooring goods to be installed much earlier than if traditional self leveling methods had been utilized. The flooring contractors loved the smooth, hard and flat surface.
