4.3 Floor Loading

4.3.1 Concrete floors (for reference only)

Concrete floor installation requiring seismic compliance requires approval by the appropriate engineering disci-

pline, i.e., civil, structural etc. The thickness of the concrete should be evaluated to ensure that its weight carrying

capabilities meet the requirements.
Check the building floor plans for the presence of pipes, conduits, beams or any other obstructions in the con-

crete slab that could interfere with the drilling.
Figure 18 shows the dimensions and bolt locations of a single bay. An anchoring kit is provided with hardware for
