Hi,I am trying to fasten some wooden planks to the concretefloor in our third storey apartment. The 3 storey building isbuilt of two by fours in the usual way. Between the storeysis a layer of featherlite concrete. I have tried #8 concretescrews and also sheetrock self-tapping screws. Sometimesthese hold but more often the concrete crumbles and willnot hold the fastener securely.I am writing to ask if there are other ways of securing afastener to featherlite concrete. Perhaps some kind ofanchor which will stay in place and hold a fastener.Thank you in advance for your suggestions.Mike EisenstadtAustin, Texas
