The floor system of a gymnasium consists of a 130-mm-thick concrete slab resting on four steel beams (A = 9,100 mm2) that, in turn, are supported by two steel girders (A = 25,600 mm2), as shown in the figure. Determine the dead loads acting on beam BF and girder AD.

Question
The floor system of a gymnasium consists of a 130-mm-thick concrete slab resting on four steel beams (A = 9,100 mm2) that, in turn, are supported by two steel girders (A = 25,600 mm2), as shown in the figure. Determine the dead loads acting on beam BF and girder AD.
Question 1: What is the value of floor load that will carry by beam BF in kN/m?
Question 2: What is the value of dead load of beam BF alone in kN/m?
Question 3: What is the total dead load that will carry by beam BF in kN/m?
