Question: The factored compressive load ( Pu ) on Column F - 6 for the following. [ 2 points ] a . The live load is

The factored compressive load (Pu) on Column F-6 for the following. [2 points]
a. The live load is patient rooms
b.5-in. thick concrete slab (unit weight =150 pcf)
c. Joist self-weight (8-in. x 15-in. joist; unit weight =150 pcf)
d. Girder self-weight =450 lbs/ft
e. Second floor flooring: Hardwood flooring
f. First floor ceiling: Suspended steel channel system plus a mechanical duct allowance
Note: For this column, only compute the compressive load due to the second-floor loading as described here.
You do not need to consider roof loading.
