Hi,
I just completed the attached bench. I built it out of concrete block, tied in to the concrete floor with drilled and epoxied rebar. Then all the cells were filled with concrete. The bench top is 3/4” steel plate, approximately 612 pounds.
My plan is to drill the top and the concrete filled blocks and tie them together with expansion bolts / redheads.
My question is should I put some rubber / conveyor belt in between the blocks and the steel top plate to act like a dampener, or grout the top of the blocks and set the plate down, or use some structural epoxy to fill the deviations so I have 100% contact between the plate and the blocks.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
The holes you see are going to be filled with cabinets to hold the tooling. Also is a picture of the 10k that will be going on top.
Thanks
Nick
