Architect specifications:
1) Superimposed dead load (including finishes, partition, mep etc) for each floor are shown next page.
2) The facade weight is 200 plf and it's all around the building, the parapet weight at the roofs is 100 plf. Don't forget to add these loads at the perimeter beams.
3) Wind Load is 30 psf
4) Use steel or LVL for beams, TJI of common wood for joists.

The structure is to be constructed in a coastal region which will be exposed to mostly mild environmental conditions and should provide a 1.5-hour fire resistance. It is known that the underlying foundation soil contains sulphate and other organic compounds. The layout of the structure consists of portal frames which are spaced evenly along the L2 direction. The frames are to support a slab of thickness (t) that will cover the full area of the hall plan. The dead and live loads applied on the slab are G and Q (kPa), respectively.arrow_forwardA sample of Achilles saturated with water has a mass of 1710 g.
