  • Isogrid tile
    Patent number: 5787654
    Abstract: A tile for modular flooring assemblies includes a first, second and third pluralities of support ribs which are disposed to intersect and form an isogrid of equilateral support triangles within the tile. The equilateral support triangles provide more even dispersion of loads placed on the tile, and thereby reduce warping and other damage to the tile. Also disclosed is a novel structure for attaching such tiles.
