An anchored/resilient floor system includes at least one upper flooring layer supported by parallel rows of attachment members which are supported above a base by a plurality of compressible pads, the attachment members being secured to the base at predetermined positions therealong by a fastener construction which permits downward deflection under loaded conditions but prevents vertical raising of the members beyond their initial static position. The attachment members are anchored in a manner which does not hold the pads in a precompressed state when the floor is unloaded. The fastener construction is preferably a plurality of single-piece anchor pins, wherein each anchor pin has a depth stop which limits downward extension into the bore during installation. This single-piece anchor pin construction is particularly suitable for reanchoring or retrofitting an already installed floor at a significantly lower cost than that of installing a new floor, and the one-piece anchor pin may be adapted for use with a portable floor by using internally threaded anchors embedded in the base.
