![The floor beam in Fig.1 is used to support the 6-ft width of a lightweight plain concrete slab having a thickness of 4 in. The slab serves as a portion of the ceiling for the floor below, and therefore its bottom is
coated with 5psf plaster. Furthermore, a concrete block wall is directly over the top flange of the beam. Determine the total load on the beam measured per foot if the concrete slab load is 32psf, concrete blo
wall load is 900lb/ft and live load is 50psf.
