Case Study: Loma Linda University Medical Center achieves moisture, flatness, and levelness control with ARDEX Americas

Loma Linda University Medical Center speeds new hospital flooring prep with ARDEX in 4 hours

Loma Linda University Medical Center faced significant challenges during the construction of its new two-tower hospital, which included coordinating multiple trades, accessing upper levels for material staging, and establishing the correct floor preparation specifications. ARDEX Americas provided extensive technical consultation to develop a custom system using products like ARDEX K 10 and ARDEX Concrete Management Systems to meet the project's high-performance requirements.

The solution implemented by ARDEX Americas involved collaborating with the general contractor to conduct site tests and develop a tailored installation plan. By utilizing a system of self-leveling underlayments and primers, the installer was able to increase production speed and achieve the required floor flatness and levelness across over one million square feet. ARDEX Americas' products and expertise provided a faster, easier application method that successfully addressed the project's major challenges.
