Divider strips offer both form and function. They are used to create the form to retain the poured terrazzo mix. Aesthetically, dividers serve as the skeleton to the terrazzo flooring design, offering designers the ability to create any design or pattern. The thickness of the terrazzo strips may be varied to compliment the flooring design. Strips are also offered in different materials, most commonly aluminum as well as zinc, brass or plastic. terrazzo installation aluminum strips terrazzo aggregate

So as you look at divider strips from a form perspective, there are a couple of different things that play into this. The firstis material selection. Next is selecting the different thicknesses of the divider strips and also how we can form them 

into different patterns.

When we talk about the gauge of the divider strip this refers to the thickness of the strip when looking down on the terrazzo floor. Typically there are 3 most commonly used sizes: 1/16”, ⅛” and ¼”. Custom divider strips are available up to 2” in thickness. Below are some examples of custom divider strips. Keep in mind the heavier the gauge the more expensive. Lineal foot pricing doubles with each gauge increase. So just keep that in mind from a pricing perspective.

So obviously, there are different aesthetic impacts on your floor as you select a different material or guage. aluminum strips terrazzo installation terrazzo aggregate
