ABSTRACT:
In a preferred embodiment, there is a raised floor body having a plurality of parallel bottom arches, each arch defining a lower race thereunder, wherein the lower races are separated from one another by the arches. The raised floor body preferably includes at least one transverse top slot extending into the top surface of the body, thereby defining an upper race. The top slot may be disposed generally perpendicularly to the bottom arches. The body is further preferably provided with at least one vertical opening between the upper and lower races. A cover may be disposed over the top slot, and a liner may be disposed in the top slot. The body is preferably made at least partially from a cementitious material. The raised floor body may also include a mold for forming the cementitious material. The body may be cast in-situ or may pre-cast and installed as whole, by panels, or in individual modular blocks. The present invention also relates to a method for producing the raised floor.
