Wood Block Flooring
The majority of the flooring in the Main Manufacturing Building was once entirely composed of six-inch thick concrete overlaid by wooden blocks (ATC Associates, Inc., 2008). At present, only two small areas in the Main Manufacturing Building are still covered by these blocks while the remaining rest of the wood blocks have been removed and the underlying flooring covered with concrete (ATC Associates, Inc., 2008). To find out more about the environment at this specific site, go to the 2008 Environmental Site Report.
