Expert Solution
1. Determination of dead and live loads :

Given:Heighth=10 inAs per the standards of minimum design dead loads,Minimum design dead load for 12 in fibreboardDF =0.75 lbft2andMinimum design dead load for 12 in clay brick wallDW =115 lbft2Now,Load due to 12 in fibreboard for 10 m highWF=DF×hWF=0.75×10WF=7.5 lb/ftAlso,Load due to 12 in clay brick wall for 10 m highWW=DW×hWF=115×10WF=1150 lb/ft
