, P2.1. Determine the deadweight of a
1-ft-long segment of the prestressed,
reinforced concrete tee-beam whose
cross section is shown in
Figure P2.1. Beam is constructed with
lightweight concrete which weighs 120
lb/ft3.
P2.1

P2.2. A wide flange steel beam shown
in
Figure P2.2 supports a permanent
concrete masonry wall, floor slab,
architectural finishes, mechanical and
electrical systems. Determine the
uniform dead load in kips per linear
foot acting on the beam.
The wall is 9.5-ft high, non-load
bearing and laterally braced at the top
to upper floor framing (not shown).
The wall consists of 8-in. lightweight
reinforced concrete masonry units
with an average weight of 90 psf. The
composite concrete floor slab
construction spans over simply
P2.2
supported steel beams, with a
tributary width of 10 ft, and weighs 50
psf.
The estimated uniform dead load
Uniform Dead Load WDL Acting on the Wide Flange Beam:
Wall Load:
9.5(0.09) 0.855 klf
Floor Slab:
10(0.05) 0.50 klf
Steel Framing, Fireproo昀椀ng, Architectur al Features, Floor Finish, and Ceiling Tiles:
