I will be installing a bar on top of a ceramic tile floor that has been

achored to the floor so it does not move around. looking for a way to
anchor a 2x4 to the tile/concrete floor so I can attach the bar to it
without breaking the tile.


Ideally, you dont: send the screws down through the grout lines if at all
possible and use tapcons to secure a cleat. Then it's just a matter of
removing the tapcons and filling the grout lines if you ever decide to
remove it.
