Abstract
The invention includes a subfloor assembly for supporting a floor surface on a substrate. The subfloor assembly includes a plurality of plate members extending in parallel relation along the substrate, with a space formed between adjacent plate members. A plurality of sleeper members extending longitudinally along the substrate, and are located in the spaces between adjacent plate members. First resilient members are positioned on the upper surface of each of said plate members, and second resilient members are positioned below the lower surface of each of said sleeper members. The floor surface is attached to an upper surface of said sleeper members. The second resilient members are preferably more compressible than the first resilient members. The subfloor assembly also preferable has a plurality of brackets that limit upper movement of the sleeper members but permit downward movement of the sleeper members.
