The floor frame shown carries a (superimposed) service dead load of 2.2 kPa. Slab S1 is 110 mm thick, while slab S2 is 130 mm thick. A concrete wall 180 mm thick and 4.0m high is placed directly on top of beam AH. Beams AH, BG, CF, and DE are reinforced concrete rectangular beams 250 mm wide and 500 mm deep, while girders AD and HE are 300 mm wide and 600 mm deep. Weight of concrete is 23.6 kN/m³. Compute the dead load carried by the different beams and girder/s. Also compute the live loads on those same beams and girders using the minimum specified by the code: 1.96 kPa.
