Abstract: A building construction for floors including joists that have vertical, threaded, through-running holes for level-adjusting spacer screws, which protrude from the joist on its underside for adjusting the top side of the joist to a desired level, an elastic damping body being arranged at the anterior screw portion and having an outer part, which forms a resilient connection between the screw and the substructure, and an inner part, which is located inside a central hole in the screw. The inner part forms a resilient engagement element for cooperation with an inner support surface in the bottom part of the screw. An attachment element for anchoring the screw to the substructure extends through a central hole in the damping body. The cross section of the inner part is greater than the diameter of the bottom part.

Abstract: An arrangement for screening off a ventilated space (5) in a floor construction arranged on a subfloor (2) and having joists (6) that are supported by a plurality of level-adjusting spacer screws (8) resting on the subfloor (2) to create a free passage (9) between the joist and the subfloor as well as said space, which includes said passages, between the subfloor and the floor construction. In accordance with the invention, the arrangement comprises an elongate plate-shaped body (116) with a flat waist part(117), a foot part (118) and a top part (119), which foot and top parts extend along the long sides of the waist part and are flexibly connected to the waist part by means of joints (122, 123) that are parallel to each other. The plate body is arranged to be anchored with its top part to a vertical side of one of said joists by means of attachment elements (12) anchored with its foot part to the subfloor by means of attachment elements (121).
