Steel girder (A=21,100 mm²) C -8.5m- Problem 1. The floor system of an apartment building consists of a 100-mm-thick reinforced concrete slab resting on three steel floor beams, which in turn are supported by two steel girders, as shown in the Figure. The areas of cross section of the floor beams and the girders are 11,800 mm2 and 21,100 mm2, respectively. Determine the dead loads acting on the beam CD and the girder AE.

System of Forces

A force is an external influence or agent that changes the state of a system. According to Newton's second law, the force applied to a body is proportional to the change in momentum of a body. Hence, whenever a force is applied to a body, its momentum changes. If the body is at rest, under the action of force, its state of rest changes to motion. In other words, the magnitude of the momentum of the body changes from zero to a measurable value. Similarly, if the body possesses some initial velocity, it has some associated momentum, the effect of force can cause the body to halt or come to rest, that is, the momentum reduces to zero.
