Walls and Ceilings - Attaching Divider Wall to Slab

I'm considering installing a divider wall (3-4 feet high) on the first floor. The house is built on a concrete slab. How do you attach the floor to the slab??

Whoops. I ment how do you attach the wall to the slab:D

I always use a Remington Power Hammer to shoot pins to attach a plate to a slab. You could try hardened concrete nails with construction adhesive, but my experience with that is: 1 - You have to pound the you know what on the nails, and 2 - after you get the first one in and start pounding the next one in, the vibration loosens the first one. Best bet would go to your local tool rental and rent the gun. It will probably be either a Remington, or a Hilti. Have them explain how to use it and make sure you have both eye and hearing protection.

Other alternative would be to drill holes and install anchors.

Thanks for the advice. I think I'm going to go with the anchor method.

Can I use a standard drill with a masonry bit or should I rend something with a little more juice? Also, what size screws / anchors / bit would be appropriate?

My brother and I put up a small partition wall to close off a family room from his kitchen last year. Just used regular 3/8 drill with masonry bit. Don't recall what size anchors/bolts; 3/8, 7/16, 1/2 probably. If the wall is also attached at the ends and at the ceiling, there really isn't any need for humongous anchors.
