4.2.3. Floors, Ceilings and Walls
4.2.3.1. Seismic Requirements
Seismic requirements are determined and specified by the hospital structural engineer of record and approved by the
specific state or country agency. Refer to Chapter 9 for seismic anchoring information.
4.2.3.2. Floor Flatness Requirements
Before placing the base plate, the floor must be within 1mm of flat across the entire area of the base plate, i.e. the
maximum height difference across any two points on the floor under base plate cannot exceed 1mm.
4.2.3.3. Floor Requirements when using provided Table Floor Anchors
The maximum pullout force per provided anchor was calculated assuming:
A regular weight concrete having a minimum, 28 day, compression strength (f'c) of 2500 psi (17.24 MPa) at the
time of installation.
Concrete thickness of at least 200mm
Anchors installed to the required hole depth of 140mm,
Center of anchor hole to concrete edge distance 4.5 in. (114 mm).
Make sure to obtain data on compression strength of the concrete before using floor anchors.
4.2.3.4. Ceiling
Aluminum rails support the Overhead Tube Suspension and In-Room LCD Monitor bridge used in Precision RXi
R&F system X-ray rooms.
Reference - For details on ceiling requirements for stationary rails, refer to Chapter 3 – System Physical
Characteristics.
4.2.3.5. Walls
The Precision RXi R&F Positioner cabinet must be securely fastened to the wall to prevent tipping.
Under normal conditions, the wall at the installation site must be capable of supporting, minimally, a 110 lb. (490 N)
pull from the wall at each anchor bolt.
