The building in Fig. P1.1 is used for general office space. The slab is 10 in. thick. The beams are 16 in. wide and have a total depth of 20 in., the bay dimensions are 20 ft in the X direction and 25 ft in the Y direction, and the superimposed service dead load is 4 psf. Calculate the slab factored load in psf and the beam factored load in klf.
