Installing a hardwood floating floor in a home offers benefits such as durability, easy maintenance, improved aesthetics, and potential increase in property value.
Not the best idea. Hardwood floor should be angle nailed down, but obviously you cant do that. I think hardwood flooring would dry out and separate in places if glued.
Choosing an engineered hardwood floating floor for your home offers several benefits. These floors are durable, easy to install, and can be more resistant to moisture and temperature changes compared to traditional hardwood floors. Additionally, engineered hardwood floating floors are often more cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
Yes, it must be a glue down wood or a floating wood floor.

Hardwood, carpet, laminate, ceramic tile, vinyl flooring. the list goes on.
I have done this and I always have the hardwood installed first. Then I install the ceramic tile. To protect the hardwood floor from getting grout or glue on it I cover the hardwood floor with a soft cover (to prevent scratches) and tape it down. Then place a plastic cover over the hardwood. Then I can install the ceramic tile at the edge of the hardwood creating hardly or no seem and level with the hardwood. When its done it looks beautiful.I would install the tile first , that way you don't risk getting glue or grout on your hardwood.
The floors themselves install in a very similar fashion. If you want a floor with a lot of shine, you will want to go with hardwood. If cost is an issue, laminate.
The best installation methods for hardwood over concrete floors are glue-down and floating floor installations. Glue-down involves adhering the hardwood directly to the concrete using a strong adhesive, while floating floor installation involves placing the hardwood over a foam underlayment without attaching it to the concrete. Both methods are effective for ensuring a stable and durable hardwood floor on concrete surfaces.
No, laminate is floating type of floor installed over an insulation pad. Hardwood floor has to be nailed, stapled or glued to the subfloor. If you do manage to install hardwood on top of laminate sooner or later your Laminate floor will expand due to high temperature or humidity and it will create gaps between hardwood planks.
