The wall is 2.5 m high and consists of 51 mm x 102 mm studs plastered on one side. On the other side is 13 mm fiberboard, and 102 mm clay brick. Determine the average load in kN/m of length of wall that the wall exerts on the floor. For studs: Weight = 0.57 kN/m^2 For fiberboard: Weight = 0.04 kN/m^2 For clay brick: Weight = 1.87 kN/m^2
