Question

Figure Q2 shows a reinforced concrete platform with a cantilever slab and wall at the edge of 
slab. The brick wall is seated on the edge of cantilever slab is 3.2 m high. Given: 
All slab thickness = 150 mm 
All beams = 250 mm × 600 mm 
Concrete unit weight = 25 kN/m3
Weight of brickwall = 2.6 kN/m2
Finishes = 1.5 kN/m2
Variable action = 5 kN/m2

Determine the characteristic permanent action (gk in kN/m) and variable action (qk in kN/m) acting on Beam B/1-2.
