Question: A partial floor plan for a three - story reinforced concrete office building with 1 0 ft floor - to - floor heights is shown

A partial floor plan for a three-story reinforced concrete office building with 10 ft floor-to-
floor heights is shown in the next slide.
Assume the following:
7" thick slab on the roof and floors

12'' lightweight finish on the floor slabs
20 psf for the partitions
10 psf for mechanical and electrical equipment
2 psf for the suspended ceiling
Roof live load (snow)S=35 psf
Floor live load (office)L=50 psf
A. Determine the following:
The factored total uniform load in psf on the roof
The factored total uniform load in psf on the floor slabs
