Question: For the floor plan shown in Figure 1 , the slab has a thickness of 0 . 1 5 m . The floor carries live

For the floor plan shown in Figure 1, the slab has a thickness of 0.15m. The floor carries live load of 2.0kNm2, floor cover of 2kNm2, in addition to its own weight. All beams are 0.30.65m and and carrying walls with 0.25m width and 3.0m height. The concrete unit weight c=25kNm3, while the wall unit weight w=12kNm3. All columns are 0.30.5m and floor height is 3.65m. Find the followings:
(a) Show tributary areas for all beams on plan;
(b) Calculate the load carried by beams B1, B2, B3, B4 and B5;
(c) Draw a sketch showing the statical system of each beam along with the applied loads;
(d) Show tributary areas for columns C1,C2,C3 and C4 on plan;
(e) Calculate the load carried by columns C1,C2,C3 and C4.
For the floor plan shown in Figure 1 , the slab
