Abstract
An aircraft flooring system for an aircraft fuselage adapted to secure a payload component may include first and second seat tracks extending longitudinally with respect to the aircraft fuselage, the first and second seat tracks being spaced from one another; and an intercostal assembly extending between the first and second seat tracks. The intercostal assembly can include a first intercostal having a center member having a first end and a second end and a top flange including a mounting region between the first and second ends; and at least first and second tab members. The first tab member can be coupled to the top flange toward the first end of the center member and the second tab member can be coupled to the top flange toward the second end of the center member. The first and second tab members can extend beyond the first and second ends of the center member, respectively, and be configured to be coupled to the first and second seat tracks.
