A flat roof is subject to the following uniformly distributed loads: a dead load of 21 psf (pounds per square foot of roof surface), a roof live load of 12 psf, a snow load of 13.5 psf, and a wind load of 22 psf upward. (Although the wind itself is in a horizontal direction, the force that it exerts on this roof is upward. It will be upward regardless of wind direction. The dead, live, and snow loads are gravity loads and act downward.) a. If load and resistance factor design is used, compute the factored load (required strength) in pounds per square foot. Which AISC load combination controls? b. If allowable strength design is used, compute the required load capacity (required strength) in pounds per square foot. Which AISC load combination controls?

The dead, live, and snow loads are gravity loads and act downward.). If load and resistance factor design is used, compute the factored load (required strength) in pounds per square foot. Which AISC load com­bination controls? There are 5 load combinations below: Combination 1: 1.4DCombination 2: 1.2D+1.6L+0.5(Lr or S or R)Combination 3: 1.2D+1.6(Lr or S or R) +(0.5L or 0.5W)Combination 4: 1.2D+1.0W+0.5(Lr or S or R)Combination 5: 0.9D+1.0W How to deal with the wind load? If the wind load W=-22 psf, then the result of combination 5 will be -3.1 psf, which is negative.  And the tensile strength of materials and…
A closed storage building is located on open flat terrain in central Ohio. If the sidewall of the building is 20 ft high, determine the external wind pressure acting on the windward and leeward walls. Each wall is 60 ft long. Assume the roof is essentially flat.
