Abstract
A floor structure for an aircraft includes a rail that defines a recess having an opening and a bottom and designed to receive one or more attachment elements, a covering element arranged above a segment of the recess so as to provide a complementary bearing surface above the opening, and a cellular supporting structure having a first end that rests on the bottom of the recess, and a second end supporting the covering element. Thus, the covering element can be sufficiently thin to avoid or limit the formation of steps at the surface of the floor structure.
