A wide flange steel beam shown in Figure (P 2.3) supports a permanent concrete masonry wall, floor

Question:

A wide flange steel beam shown in Figure \(P 2.3\) supports a permanent concrete masonry wall, floor slab, architectural finishes, mechanical and electrical systems. Determine the uniform dead load in kips per linear foot acting on the beam. The wall is 9.5 -ft high, non-load bearing and laterally braced at the top to upper floor framing (not shown). The wall consists of 8 -in. lightweight reinforced concrete masonry units with an average weight of \(90 \mathrm{psf}\). The composite concrete floor slab construction spans over simply supported steel beams, with a tributary width of \(10 \mathrm{ft}\), and weighs \(50 \mathrm{psf}\). The estimated uniform dead load for structural steel framing, fireproofing, architectural features, floor finish, and ceiling tiles equals \(24 \mathrm{psf}\), and for mechanical ducting, piping, and electrical systems equals \(6 \mathrm{psf}\).
