When installing a raised floor, the best starting point is typically from the farthest corner away from

the entrance, in this case, Point B. This method allows for the floor installation to progress towards

the entrance, ensuring that workers can avoid walking over the newly installed tiles, thus minimizing

the risk of damage and maintaining cleanliness during installation.

Detailed Explanation:

Starting at the farthest corner (Point B) and working towards the entrance (Point A) is a standard

practice in raised floor installation. This approach ensures that installers do not walk over freshly laid

tiles, which could lead to shifting or misalignment. Additionally, it allows for more controlled

placement and alignment, as well as convenient egress when installation is complete.

EPI Data Center Specialist Reference:

EPI guidelines for raised floor installation emphasize beginning at the farthest point from the

entrance and working back towards it, which aligns with industry best practices for efficiency and

quality assurance. This method reduces potential damage and supports precise alignment across the

floor area.
