Hi Ian,
Thanks for your comments . In this case there is already a permanently mounted post in the middle of the floor - the table top actually slides on and off it with the unconcious patient already on it so we have a cluttered, for want of a better word, floor already - the II even if floor mounted has to be stationary as it and the table movements are linked electronically, similar to a Cath Lab. I am not so sure they are planning to use the theatre for orthopaedics - we're still at the stage I am sure we're all familiar with where the clinical staff have decided they simply must have to have a Hybrid theatre in the new development here and they will work out afterwards what to use it for! I am just hoping to steer them in the right direction and by canvassing opinion appear smarter than I really am.
