Question: Using the structural configuration given in the project overview, and the thickness of the precast slab of 1 5 0 mm , calculate the following

Using the structural configuration given in the project overview, and the thickness of the precast slab of 150mm, calculate the following factored design forces for the most critical gravity loading case
(neglecting any torsion that may develop due to asymmetry). In all cases, clearly indicate which member
you are considering. First Floor Live Load (Office Space):
4.8
kPa
4.8kPa
Second Floor Live Load (Lab):
3.6
kPa
3.6kPa
Dead Loads:
HVAC Load:
1.56
kN
1.56kN (assumed to be a point load or distributed over a specific area).
Concrete slab load:
3.465
kPa
3.465kPa.
Insulation Load:
0.462
kPa
0.462kPa.
