The roof of a single-story storage building shown below, is subjected to a uniformly distributed load of 1.17 kPA over its surface area. Determine the axial load acting on the column A.

The floor system of an apartment building consists of a 5-inch-thick reinforced concrete slab resting on three steel floor beams, which are in turn supported by two steel girders. The areas of cross section of the floor beams and the girders are 19.0 in.2 and 35.0 in.2, respectively. Determine the dead load acting on beam CD.

Hydrostatic pressure acts in what direction?

The floor system of a heavy storage warehouse consists of a 3-inch-thick reinforced concrete slab resting on four steel beams (A = 19.1 in.2), which are supported by two steel girders (A = 33.4 in.2). The girders, in turn, are supported by four columns. Determine the live load acting on column A.

Determine the vertical reaction force at B. Let P1 = 60 kN, P2 = 140 kN, P3 = 120 kN, and a = b = c = d = 3.0 m.
