Venturing deep into my white trash past, I recall seeing (and smelling) basements with screw jacks holding up parts of the main floor.

One could imagine using a small forest of these to pre-load a suspended floor.

About the ceiling, I'm still thinking... Even in a room where the walls are masonry, the ceiling will almost certainly be suspended.
