When building reinforced concrete decks over an occupied space, you must
consult a licensed structural engineer. Several factors including loads,
waterproofing, steel reinforcement size and spacing, as well as anchoring
details can only be done properly after an on-site inspection of your existing
conditions. Furthermore, special attention is required to ensure that the deck
doesn't leak into the shop below. Special additives may be required to the
concrete, as well as embedded waterproofing membranes to ensure that moisture
does not permeate the area below. This is definitely a job where professional
engineering is essential to protect your investment. Builders Websource.
