In the case of concrete, tile and wood you can refer to the definitions in paragraph 2: main construction material of the roof.

a) Mosaic: Include in this category floors made of an assemblage of small multicolored squares set in cement and which form a design.

b) Tamped dirt: Include in this category dirt floors which have been compressed with a heavy piece of wood with a piece of metal on one end. This is typically called a Dame in Haiti.
