What is better engineered wood or bamboo for floating floor?

"Wood" is a general term. Many different types of wood are made in engineered flooring. Bamboo is generally considered to be soft. People express problems with scratching. Although this can be true with some types of wood as well. Assuming the engineered wood and bamboo flooring are the same quality as far as their construction, the next thing you need to do is refer to is the Janka Hardness scale. See how the species of wood rates in comparison to bamboo. Many sales people have been misinformed about the property of bamboo. It is a great looking floor, but has its disadvantages too.


Is Oak engineered flooring durable?

Oak is generally thought of as a durable flooring. It is the most common wood floor in North America. The Janka Hardness Scale puts white oak at 1360 and red oak at 1290. In comparison, hard maple is a little higher at 1450 and southern yellow pine at 870. The construction of the floor will have a great deal to do with how this floor will wear. The under part of the floor ideally should be made of plywood and not HDF or MDF. Assuming this, oak engineered flooring is a durable choice for most homes.

Is ply wood stronger than regular wood?

Given that there are dozens of different kinds of wood, all of various hardnesses, one should define "regular wood" when asking such a question. Regardless, the short answer to your question is "no." California Redwood is a very soft wood, which is rated at about 400 on the Janka Hardness Scale, and Brazillian Ebony is one of the hardest woods, rated at about 3,700 on the Janka Hardness Scale. By comparison, most plywood is made of birch and/or mahogany, which are rated at about 1,300 and 2,200, repsectively. The hardest plywood is sometimes made of teak, which is rated at about 3,500, which falls short of Brazillian Ebony by about 200 points on the Janka Hardness Scale.

What is the wood flooring hardness table and how can it help in selecting the most durable wood flooring option?

The wood flooring hardness table, also known as the Janka hardness scale, measures the resistance of different wood species to wear and denting. It can help in selecting the most durable wood flooring option by providing a numerical rating for each type of wood, allowing you to compare and choose a species that is better suited for high-traffic areas or areas prone to wear and tear. The higher the Janka rating, the more durable the wood is likely to be.
