The floor assembly generally consists of a plurality of structural beams (23) for spanning a gap between opposing supporting walls; a plurality of edge blocks (220) for construction in the inner leaf (213) of a cavity wall as a course of blocks at the same level as the structural beams (23); and a plurality of insulation blocks (231) for inter-engagement with the edge blocks (220) and the structural beams (23). Each structural beam (23) has an upwardly facing projecting ledge and similarly each edge block (220) has an upwardly facing protruding ledge (220a). To ensure inter-engagement of the insulation blocks (231) with the structural beams (23) and the edge blocks (220), each of the insulation blocks (231) has a downwardly facing ledge (231 a) and this ensures that the insulation blocks (231) abut directly against the inner leaf (213) of the cavity wall thereby reducing cold spots adjacent the cavity wall. To further improve insulation values one or more insulation sheets (232) may be used to overlie the upper surfaces of the insulation blocks (231) and the structural beams (23). With this floor assembly rapid and efficient construction remains possible whilst maintaining and often improving upon insulation values for existing flooring assembly systems.
