We're getting close to the final stages before construction, and it would be interesting to hear how you all think it should be done.
The house has a number of steel beams embedded in the intermediate floor to avoid load-bearing structures below.
In these beams (I believe they are HEA-beams), the intermediate floor will be installed according to the pictures below.
The embedded steel beams look like this:
Is there a solution for attaching the intermediate floor to the steel on the H-beam?
Since the beams will be in place before the battens, you'll have to fold them in, and therefore, it's not possible to have mounts for every batten. I imagine that the self-weight of the intermediate floor will resolve most issues and that the battens will stay in place with noggings + screws/glue in the chipboard on the floor and the lath below.
What type of HEA beam do you have? In my case, I had HEA 180 and 45x220 bjäklag, which allowed after notching to screw-glue 45+40 mm wooden studs above the steel beam. One on each side of every joist, about 60cm in on each joist.
When my house was built, it was planned for beam straps according to Fahlis's sketch. But the builder disregarded these. He screw-glued a 45x70 rule on top of the subframes/floor joists instead.
The rules were 220 and thus became 290 mm, the HEA beam was 200 mm. Unfinished attic on top of the 290 mm floor structure.
We also searched around the forum to see how it could be solved. In our case, it was 2 pillars of vkr 70x70x4 that turned into kkr, about 2.5m high. With a HEA200 on top, about 5m. In case anyone is looking for an answer just like I did...
@Smillan1000 How did you attach the beam to the pillars?
We are going to have almost exactly the same solution as you, would love to see suggestions on how to do it.

It was welded. I was a bit worried due to the fire risk with wood etc that has dried for 45 years, but it went well. We had wet towels around as well as a fire extinguisher. The lower part of the pillars was welded to a plate about 15x30cm for support, which in turn stands on the foundation wall and is held with expansion bolts.

Did you drill holes in the hea beam and bolt the angles?
