45 degree engineered bamboo installation over concrete slab


Thinking about floating engineered bamboo on 45 angle in both foyer and rec room. Are there concerns that I need to be aware of before installing in this manner? Reasoning for the 45 layout is that both the foyer and rec rooms are L shaped - almost in the shape of a field goal, if looking from front door, but with one upright/horizontal section slightly lower than the other hoizontal/upright. I realize that there will be a lot more cuts to make and will probably have more waste, but are there other issues?

just make sure there is plenty waste as you said.
I would imagine you start in the middle as you would with tile, but I cannot be for sure.
