Abstract: A utility center is provided for use in combination with a raised floor for accommodating data and telecommunications wiring in an area between the raised floor and a supporting subfloor. The utility center includes an enclosure having a base, and an access opening formed in the base for receiving wiring from a communications wiring closet, and for delivering wiring to at least one work station of a work group. A distribution panel support is carried in the enclosure. A distribution panel is carried by the distribution panel support in vertically spaced relation above the access opening for operatively interconnecting wiring of the wiring closet and the communications equipment of the at least one work station. A distribution panel adjustment assembly cooperates with the distribution panel support for adjusting the horizontal orientation of the distribution panel above the access opening of the base.

Abstract: A utility center for use in combination with a raised floor for accommodating data and telecommunications wiring in an area between the raised floor and a supporting subfloor is provided. The utility center is located intermediate a communications wiring closet and at least one workstation of a workgroup for distributing wiring to communications equipment of the at least one workstation. The utility center includes a base mounted on the subfloor. The base includes an access opening therein for receiving wiring from the communications wiring closet, and for delivering wiring from the utility center to the at least one workstation of the workgroup. A vertical support is connected to the base. A distribution panel is carried by the support for operatively interconnecting wiring of the wiring closet and the communications equipment of the at least one workstation.

Abstract: An edge molding strip is provided for being located at the transition between first and second floors of different heights. The edge molding strip includes a cap segment for residing adjacent to the surface of the first floor. The cap segment covers an edge of a flooring material carried by the first floor. A connecting web is secured at one end thereof to the cap segment. The connecting web extends downwardly from the cap segment to the surface of the second floor. The connecting web resides adjacent to a raised section of flooring located between the first floor and the second floor.

Abstract: A floor pedestal module for being assembled together with a multiplicity of other like modules to form a raised floor providing space beneath the module for electrical and/or communications wiring. The module includes a base having an upper surface and opposed lower surface and four integrally-formed supporting legs formed of a high density, heavy duty plastic material. The lower surface of the module defines a pilot hole integrally-formed in the base for accepting a drill bit. At least two spaced-apart reenforcing ribs are formed in the base concentric with the pilot hole and define therebetween a circular area for being cut out to form an enlarged access hole. The utility receptacle module includes an enlarged flange for being supported by the upper surface of the pedestal module surrounding the access hole. A utility access port is provided in the module for receiving and supporting the electrical or communications utility receptacle.
