   Greetings cyber,

   This post, in response to your question, will bump the thread through the 'recent discussion' listing again which will increase it's viewing.

   Perhaps it will catch someone's attention that can help you with advice.

   Cheers

   I have used both. Like the speed of the planked, but need to include extra concrete/ grout for leveling the tops of these before finish floors are installed.

   On the other hand, in wet locations ( showers/bath areas) I have had to rip out the floor and re-do as the galvanized pan rusted through over the years and it became necessary to replace pan and concrete.

   For those of us who are just starting to investigate this area, could you elaborate a bit on exactly what type of "plank" system you are talking about. I had thought that concrete plank systems were generally more expensive than the usual poured concrete over corrugated steel deck pan.
