1 Levelrock Selector High-Strength Flooring Solutions

2 With its wide range of installation and performance benefits, poured underlayment is becoming the choice for more residential, commercial and institutional construction projects than any other type of underlayment. Higher Strength The LEVELROCK brand family of floor underlayment products offers a higher range of compressive strengths than any other poured underlayment product. That means no flaking, no dusting, no chipping and no cracking. LEVELROCK floor underlayments provide exceptionally durable, acoustically superior floors that consistently deliver best-in-class performance. Superior Quality We ve rewritten the book on quality assurance. LEVELROCK floor underlayment is installed by a network of trained, authorized contractors, supported by USG quality control teams. The result is a complete design/build solution that ensures reliable performance, industry-leading quality and superior value. Performance At a Higher Level

7 Benefits Poured cementitious underlayments that deliver exceptional compressive strength, sound control and fire-resistance properties. Establishing a new standard for poured flooring performance and quality, LEVELROCK underlayment is an ideal solution for both renovation and new construction. With trained, authorized applicators who ensure quality control, you can expect the same high-quality results on every job. Strong LEVELROCK floor underlayments deliver compressive strengths from 2,500 to 8,000 psi and are formulated to minimize the potential for shrinkage cracking. The high-strength formulation protects against wear from trade traffic during construction and from forklift traffic in warehouse settings, ensuring long-lasting performance. Every underlayment pour is tested for compressive strength according to ASTM standards, so you know exactly what performance you re getting. For residential, commercial or institutional floors, LEVELROCK underlayment delivers the strength your job requires. Lightweight LEVELROCK floor underlayment is one of the lightest-weight cementitious underlayments available. For every quarter-inch of thickness, you ll add approximately lbs./sq. ft., with a dry density of only lbs./cu. ft. Quiet During application, the underlayment slurry mix fills cracks and voids, eliminating sound channels. The addition of LEVELROCK SRM-25 sound mat or SRB sound board can increase acoustical performance to exceed code requirements in recommended systems. Safe LEVELROCK underlayment systems (including all sound-rated systems) are Classified by Underwriters Laboratories. One- and two-hour ratings are available for wood frame floor/ceiling assemblies, and four-hour ratings are available for precast concrete floor/ceiling assemblies.
