ABSTRACT:
The suspended modular floor assembly includes a plurality of modules of similar size and shape positioned in abutment with one another at their edges and suspended from an overhead ceiling support truss of an industrial building. Each module includes parallel side beams and parallel end beams joined at their ends to form a rectangular frame, with the beams each including external tongue and groove surfaces to mate with the tongue and groove surfaces of the adjacent modules. A plurality of elongated cross braces extend parallel to one another across the rectangular frame, a corrugated support sheet is mounted on the cross braces, and a flat sheet is supported by the corrugated support sheet. Connector pins fit through and join the tongue and groove edge portions of abutting modules, a gasket seals the modules at their abutting edges and eye bolts extend through the beams of the rectangular frames of the modules and are connectable to suspension cables that support the modules of the floor assembly from the overhead truss of the building.
