A flat roof is subject to the following uniformly distributed loads: a dead load of 25 psf (pounds per square foot of roof surface), a roof live load of 13 psf, a snow load of 16 psf, and a wind load of 27 psf downward. If ASD is used, determine the required load capacity (required strength), Ra.

A beam is part of the framing system for the floor of an office building. The floor is subjected to both dead loads and live loads. The maximum moment caused by the service dead load is 53 ft-kips, and the maximum moment for the service live load is 61 ft-kips (these moments occur at the same location on the beam and can therefore be combined). If LRFD is used, what is the required nominal strength of the beam for a resistance factor φ of 0.90?
