Question

Part of a floor framing system is shown in Figure . A 4-inch-thick reinforced concrete floor slab of normal-weight concrete is supported by floor beams spaced at 7 feet. The floor beams are supported by girders, which in turn are supported by the columns. In addition to the weight of the structure, loads consist of a uniform live load of 80 psf and moveable partitions, to be accounted for by using a uniformly distributed load of 20 pounds per square foot of floor surface. The maximum live load deflection must not exceed 1y360 of the span length. Use A992 steel and design the floor beams. Assume that the slab provides continuous lateral support of the floor beams.
