The floor of an apartment building, shown in the figure, is subjected to a uniformly distributed load of 45 psf over its surface area. The aspect ratio (beam length to spacing ratio) of the slabs in the framing plan is 40 ft/25 ft 1.6. The load path is: concrete slabs - floor beams - girders - columns - foundations. 1. Determine the loads acting on the floor beams AF, BG, and CH of the framing system. Sketch the tributary area of the beams selected on the building framing plan. Draw the free body diagram of the beams selected.
