Reinforced concrete floors can be designed for a wide range of loads. Different thicknesses and shapes of concrete and arrangements of reinforcing will have different strengths.
structual steel is the widw flange column's and beam's as well as plate steel angle iron ect.. it falls under aws D1.1 welding code. reinforcement steel/reinforcing steel is the rebar, dba,(deformed bar anchor), hsa, (headed stud anchor) that is placed in concrete, floors, walls, footings, ect... it falls under aws D1.4 welding code
Floors can be made of a number of materials, such as hardwood, stone, ceramic tiles, plywood covered with carpet or laminated or veneer tiles. In homes with concrete foundations the floors are concrete, but are covered with carpet, laminate, or tiles.
Not a good idea because of the moisture that occurs in the concrete.

Hospitals, universities, and other large commercial buildings often have concrete floors throughout the building, so there's nothing stopping you as long as the structure itself is strong enough to support the additional weight. Be sure and check your local code enforcement office before buying any materials.

It withstands compression very well.. especially when reinforced with rebar or put under tension in press-stressed members.
The benefits of concrete floors in a basement are durability, low maintenance and versatility. You can easily cover the concrete with any material later on.
Interior concrete floors tend to be cooler regardless their location, but not like outdoor concrete. In new construction, particularly loft renovations, etc., concrete flooring is heated, which makes it cozy. A concrete floor in Washington is no different than a concrete floor in Florida or Texas. It has more to do with construction, the heating system and insulation of the house.l
