You may be able to put a -O- shaped hole in the floor where the slit is just wider than the large washer, and the hole large enough to pass the welded on nut through. With a wire/string the washer/nut could be pushed in through the top, pulled back up, tacked into place, the wire/string removed, a bolt put it for centering, and then weld up the slit to the washer. A "topper" plate could be added if you wanted some additional insurance.

With this the strap can be installed from the top with a top-mounted bolt.
Awesome idea Carl!
