A panel assembly (200) for installation onto a track beam (202) including a beam flange (206) having a non-linear edge (208) is disclosed. The panel assembly (200) includes a panel (218) and a lockable catch (228) moveably connected to the panel (218). The lockable catch (228) includes a lockable mating edge (230) configured to selectively mate with the non-linear edge (208) of the beam flange (206) of the track beam (202). The lockable catch (228) also includes a lockable catch edge (232) extending beyond the lockable mating edge (230). The lockable catch (228) is moveable on a lower surface (222) of the panel (218) between an unlocked position and a locked position. In the unlocked position the lockable catch edge (232) is retracted. In the locked position, the lockable mating edge (230) mates with the non-linear edge (208) of the beam flange (206) and the lockable catch edge (232) retains the panel (218) on the track beam (202).
