1. The roof system of an office building consists of a 4-in.thick reinforced concrete slab resting on four steel beams, which are supported by two steel girders. The girders, in turn, are supported by fourcolumns. Unit weight of Steel: 490 lb/ft³ ; concrete: 150lb/ft³ Live load for Office Bldg.: 40 psf Steel girder (A = 42.9 in.²) Steel floor beam (A = 16.2 in.) A C E 20 ft B D F H Steel column 4 in. concrete slab 1 3 at 9 ft 27 ft = a) Determine the dead loads acting on the girder AG. b) Determine the live loads acting on column A.
