On désigne par le mot «plancher» tout «ouvrage de charpente formant plate-forme au rez-de-chaussée ou séparant le rez-de-chaussée d'un étage ou séparant deux étages d'un bâtiment» [...] La plate-forme que constitue un plancher est le «sol», c'est-à-dire la surface sur laquelle on marche [...] Quand la partie supérieure du plancher est faite de planches grossièrement assemblées, elle porte le nom même de l'ouvrage de charpente [plancher]. Quand la partie supérieure de l'ouvrage est un «assemblage soigné, bien ajusté, de lames de bois disposées régulièrement» on nomme celui-ci «parquet» [...] 2, record 3, French, - planche%20de%20plancher

Actuellement, les planchers en bois, porteurs de mur à mur, ne sont que très rarement utilisés dans la construction d'immeubles à plusieurs étages. (...) Cependant, le bois reste encore le matériau choisi pour la construction des planchers dans les villas, les pavillons, les habitations privées, etc. (...) Les planchers en bois sont constitués par des solives porteuses (...) Le revêtement des planchers en bois par du parquet ne présente aucune difficulté. L'établissement d'un carrelage, en revanche, nécessite pour l'étanchéité l'emploi d'un carton bitumé jointif sur l'aire de bois, avant la réalisation du mortier de pose. 1, record 5, French, - plancher%20en%20bois
