The building section associated with the floor plan in Figure P2.4 is shown in Figure P2.7. Assume a live load of \(60 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}^{2}\) on all three floors. Calculate the axial forces produced by the live load in column \(\mathrm{C} 3\) in the third and first stories. Consider any live load reduction if permitted by the ASCE standard.
