LOAD DISTRIBUTION
A typical floor framing plan shown has a 120mm floor slab. The slab carries flooring made up of 22mm hardwood flooring,
a ceiling made up of 10mm thick gypsum board, and minimum mechanical-electrical utilities. The said floor is intended for
reading room in a library. The girder has a 3.6 m high masonry wall that is 150mm thick, fully grouted and plastered on the
both exterior and interior face of the wall. All beams and girder has a dimension of 300mm by 550mm concrete. All
columns have a dimension of 450mm by 450mm concrete.
a. Determine the governing service load and governing ultimate load in kN/m acting on the beam between grid A
and grid B
b. Determine the governing service load and governing ultimate load in kN/m acting on the girder along grid B
c. Determine the governing service load and governing ultimate load in kN/m acting on the girder along grid 1.
d. Determine the governing service load and governing ultimate load in kN/m acting on the girder along grid 2
