Sketches and advices

 the shelf storage in the attic - including the workshop - needs a rubber support to spread the load on the floor.   

Non-slip rubber self adhesive - For our use, I think it is a good option.

The structural engineer estimated the attic allowable loading as a guideline in their drawing.
