Question: Load Combination Help: LC 4 : 1 . 2 D + 1 . 0 W + 0 . 5 L + 0 . 5 (

Load Combination Help:
LC4: 1.2D +1.0W +0.5L +0.5(Lr, S, R)
Given:
Original Loads:
Dead Load =20 psf (including self-weight)
Unit Snow Load =45 psf
Vertical Wind Load =-34 psf
Windward walls =23 psf
Leeward walls =-30 psf
Left Shear:
Dead Load =14.4 kips
Snow Load =32.4 kips
Vertical Wind Load =-24.48 kips
Right Shear:
Dead Load =-14.4 kips
Snow Load =-32.4 kips
Vertical Wind Load =24.48 kips
Horizontal Wind Load:
Windward: 12.42 k/ft^2
Leeward: -16.20 k/ft^2
No given Live Load value.
The answer for this question is LC4=70.36 kips. I keep doing this but I can't seem to get that answer. Please help.
