I suspect that the concrete is extra hard, so shoot in anchors may not work. You may have to drill the holes using a roto-hammer and then predrill the wood for bolts.
: I have a suspended garage under which I'm building a room. I want to install a sheet rock ceiling, but I'm unsure how to install the ceiling joists. The room is 10'x12' using wood 2x4 construction. The best option I can think of is to use concrete anchors to suspend 2x4s between the walls. Any suggestions on types of anchors, if this will support the weight of sheet rock, etc. ? Thanks.
