The material 8b and the floor member 6 are joined. Then, the contact surface between the sheet-like magnet 9a and the sheet-like magnet 9b is used as a slide surface,
The floor member 6 is positioned by sliding. Next, the same processing is performed on the adjacent floor member 6, and the same is placed on the next bonding agent 8 b, and the floor member 6 is similarly slid so that the floor member 6 previously positioned is connected to the floor member 6. Is engaged. By repeating this, the installation of all floor members 6 is completed.

In the above steps, once the bonding material 8
If a and 8b are adhered to the hot water mat 2 and the floor member 6, respectively, the adhesive force is stronger than the attraction force of the sheet magnets 9a and 9b.
b is in the same state as being attached to the hot water mat 2 and the floor member 6, respectively.

In the above description, the bonding material 8
Although the widths of a and 8b are the same as the width of the small joist 4, they need not always be the same. Further, it is preferable that the joining materials 8a and 8b are installed on the small joists 4. However, if the strength of the portion other than the small joists 4 of the hot water mat 2 is sufficient, the bonding materials 8a and 8b are provided in places other than the small joists 4. Is also good.

Therefore, when the floor member is to be removed for repair or the like, one floor member 6 is slid against the frictional force caused by the attraction force of the sheet-like magnets 9a and 9b to be tongue-coupled to the adjacent floor member 6. , And then the sheet-like magnets 9a, 9b
If the member is lifted against the suction force, the member can be removed without breaking the member, and can be re-attached by the method described above.

In this embodiment, the bonding material 8a,
8b was used as a set. However, it is not always necessary to use the set as a set. For example, a sheet-like magnet 9a is attached to a hot water mat in advance by another method, and the bonding material 8b is attached only to the floor member 6. You may use it.
