A three-story hotel (that is two framed floors and a roof, no basement) has interior columns that
are spaced 30 feet apart in two perpendicular directions. If the roof design dead load is 30
pounds per square foot, the floor dead load is 80 pounds per square foot, and the roof design
snow load is 40 pounds per square foot, determine the total axial load (using strength load
combinations) supported by a typical interior column at (a) the ground level, and (b) a point
located slightly above the second-floor level. Do not consider live load reduction
