ABSTRACT:
A prefabricated sleeper reduces labor costs associated with installing an anchored, resilient hardwood floor system. The prefabricated sleeper includes an elongated channel, pads located along the channel and an elongated nailing strip supported on the pads within the channel. A plurality of vertical access holes extend through the nailing strip. The pads are removed laterally from the access holes. The access holes enable a fastening gun to be inserted therein and into direct contact with the bottom of the channel to facilitate driving of fasteners through the bottom of the channel and directly into a base below. This prefabricated sleeper is formed by milling an elongated wooden strip to a desired T-shape and then drilling access holes therethrough. Pads are then stapled to the enlarged end of the T-shape, away from the access holes. An elongated sheet of steel is then rolled around the pads and the sides of the nailing strip to form a C-shaped channel thereabout.
