A utility distribution system is provided for open office plans and other similar settings, and includes a prefabricated floor construction designed to be supported directly on a building floor. The floor construction has a hollow interior which defines at least one raceway to route utility conduits therethrough, and a floor surface on which workstations can be positioned. The utility distribution system also includes at least one utility post having a foot which mounts to the floor construction to support the utility post in a generally upstanding orientation. The foot portion of the utility post has an open area disposed above and communicating with the floor raceway. At least one utility outlet is mounted on the utility post, and is adapted to dispense a selected utility therefrom. The utility post has at least one utility channel in which utility conduits can be routed, and includes an outwardly oriented open fade. The utility channel extends continuously between and communicates with the utility outlet and the open area of the foot, such that utilities can be readily provided to the workstations by pulling selected utility conduits from the floor raceway, through the open area of the foot portion of an adjacent utility post, and then laying the selected utility conduits into the utility channel portion of the utility post by insertion into the open face thereof to a location adjacent the utility outlet for connection therewith.
