Abstract
A method for installing an electroconductive flooring and an electroconductive welding rod for use in this method are disclosed. The electroconductive welding rod is composed of a joint material including as the main component a thermoplastic resin composition of a ribbon-shape or a rod-shape, with the peripheral surface thereof being coated with an electroconductive coating material. The method for installing the electroconductive flooring is composed of the steps of laying flooring sheets in mutual contact and cutting joint-forming grooves, or laying the flooring sheets with spaces therebetween for the formation of the joints of the adjacent flooring sheets, softening the electroconductive welding rod, filling the softened electroconductive welding rod into the grooves or the spaces between the flooring sheets, and welding the adjacent flooring sheets to form joints, whereby the flooring sheets are electrically integrated.
