ABSTRACT:
A floor panel for use in elevated floor assemblies having a bottom metal sheet and a top metal sheet sandwiched on each side of a solid noncompressible core. The bottom has an upwardly turned side deflected away from the side of the core forming a first shoulder on the upper edge thereof and the top has a downwardly deflected side spaced from the first shoulder forming a second shoulder such that they are spaced, non-overlapping sides. A flexible edge member having an outer shoulder engaging the first shoulder of said bottom metal sheet and an inner channel formed longitudinally thereof to receive the downwardly deflected edge of the top metal sheet is wedged between the top metal sheet edge and the bottom metal sheet edge and is locked in by the first and second shoulder on the bottom and top sheet respectively. Further, an abuttment surface formed on the outer and inner edges adapted to abutt the inner edge of the bottom metal sheet and the side of the noncompressible core so as to limit rotation from torsional forces applied to the outer flexible edge member of the floor panel.
