The invention relates to a floor system for a fuselage section of an aircraft, comprising a number of floor elements. According to the invention, the floor system has an essentially self-supporting design and is substantially mechanically separate from the fuselage section as primary structure. Consequent to the free or self-supporting design of the floor system in the fuselage cell, the layout of the floor system, for example, the arrangement of seats or groups of seats, along an aircraft axis can be matched to customer specifications in a simple manner without reference to structural boundary conditions of the fuselage structure. A floor surface for the floor system is formed from a number of floor elements which can be fitted with functional elements, wherein filling of empty spaces or cavities can be achieved with a number of floor equalisation elements. As the floor elements have a relatively large support or fixing surface the loads induced by the functional elements, in particularly from seats, galleys, sanitary modules or similar, are introduced into the floor system distributed over a large area such that the structural components thereof, in particular, vertical supports, longitudinal profiles and transverse struts can be of a structurally lighter and thus weight-saving size. |
