Question
Determine and sketch the dead loads acting along beams AD, DEF, and JKL at the second floor
The image contains a diagram labeled as a "Plan View" and "Elevation" of a structure layout. Here's a detailed transcription and explanation of the diagram: ### Plan View **Structure Layout** - The structure is rectangular with the following labeled points: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L. - **Dimensions:** - **AB** = 12 ft - **BC** = 12 ft - **AD** = 25 ft - **DG** = 15 ft - **Columns:** Identified at points A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L. - The area is divided into smaller sections with diagonal lines filling the central section (DEFIH). ### Elevation View - The plan view shows smaller "Office" spaces. - **Office Layout:** - Top row: Two offices each 9 ft. - Bottom row: Two offices each 9 ft. The structure appears to be in a grid layout with labeled columns and offices, likely representing a building with a methodical partition for spatial organization.

Expert Solution
Step 1: Given question

A plan view is shown in the above figure. We have to determine and sketch the dead loads acting along beam AD, DEF and JKL at the second floor. 

Here thickness is not provided, neither Dead load intensity is given. 

Assuming, Dead load intensity= w lb/ft2
