Floors within buildings and architectural structures are referred to by various names depending on their construction material, location, or specific function within a level. Common interior terminology includes hardwood floors, tile flooring, carpeted surfaces, polished concrete, and laminate or vinyl planking. When describing different levels of a building, floors are designated as ground floors, upper stories, basements, mezzanines, and penthouses. In specialized maritime and structural engineering contexts, horizontal decks, platforms, and subflooring substrates are also utilized to describe the structural layers that make up the walking surface of a facility.
