Transforming a Listed Museum Near Liverpool into a modern Meeting Space using SubFloor

This simple and elegant solution raised an uneven stone floor up to 300 mm to allow for installations and insulation. The joist and screw system allows for quick and easy assembly so that the floor can reach the desired height.
