Soffit and Beam Fixings ~ concrete suspended floors can be
designed to carry loads other than the direct upper surface
loadings. Services can be housed within the voids created by the
beams or ribs and suspended or attached ceilings can be supported
by the floor. Services which run at right angles to the beams or
ribs are usually housed in cast-in holes. There are many types of
fixings available for use in conjunction with floor slabs, some are
designed to be cast-in whilst others are fitted after the concrete
has cured. All fixings must be positioned and installed so that they
are not detrimental to the structural integrity of the floor.In-situ RC Suspended Floors
