31 North Roof 18 2 nd Floor D Final Exam uilding 4 uilding Description: ll connections are simple (non-moment-resisting pins). The floor and roof act as diaphragms. The second floor slab is 5 inches thick (concrete unit weight is 150 lb/ft 3 ) and is cast on metal decking that was welded to the top flanges of all beams and girders. The roof is metal deck that was welded to the top flanges of the beams and girders (it is considered sufficient to offer full lateral bracing and act as a diaphragm). Loads: Wind pressure in SD is 20 psf (the actual code wind pressure is an ultimate pressure of 33.3psf, but the SD load factor for wind is 0.6, so use 20psf in an SD design). Roof dead load is 25 psf and includes the weight of beams, girders, and all other aspects of the roof level dead loads. 2 nd floor live load: 100 psf Roof snow load: 80 psf (Northern laska) The second floor dead load is from the slab weight given, but you must also consider the weights of beams, girders, and columns. For preliminary load estimation: you may assume that all columns weigh about 50 lbs per linear foot. The exterior wall consists of studs that span from floor to floor, as shown. Their weight and the weight of the exterior wall is considered negligible. The building has four braced bays: long, between 2 and 3, along D, between 2 and 3, along 1, between and, and along 4, between and.
