Abstract

Urban rehabilitation is a major market for wood flooring, but if wood flooring is to continue to be used to any great extent in urban rehabilitation, it must be made more acceptable to the building contractor and housing owner. Changes in distribution, supply, and pricing could make wood flooring more readily available; product modification could reduce its short-term costs; and other changes could make wood flooring more economical and compatible with present working methods.
