Abstract

The present invention is a preformed, shaped part that forms a surface for farm animals to stand on in stables. The preformed parts are made to interconnect into an intermediate floor for mounting on a grating. The preformed, shaped part, when assembled, creates a substantially hollow body in which a bottom plate covers the heating device to heat the tread surface, and also includes an insulation layer for downward heat insulation of the heating device.
