The floor system of an apartment building consists of a 4-inch-thick reinforced concrete slab resting on three steel floor beams, which are in turn supported by two steel girders, as shown below. The areas of cross section of the floor beams and the girders are 18.3 in.2 and 32.7 in.2, respectively. Determine the dead load acting on the beam CD if a 6-inch-thick brick wall, which is 7 ft high and 25 ft long, bears directly on the top of beam CD.
