Quick answer:

You need to make sure there's at least one pixel on each row of the
bitmap graphic for the crumbling floor. The exclusion is the bottom
row which may be blank. The game scrolls the graphics down and
checks for a blank line on the bottom of the character, at which
point it wipes it, hence the vanishing floors in some designs.
