Reply to comment by VanCityGuy604 in How should I raise the level of the floor on concrete in an enclosed porch? by codenoggin

gotcha, ty!
What's the benefit of doing so compared to glueing / nailing it down?

I may be wrong but part of it is that it’s super easy to install. You cut stuff to size and snap it together and you’re good. One benefit might be that not gluing or nailing gives the flooring material the ability to expand and contract without buckling (which is why you leave a gap at the edge of the room).
