The following roof framing plan shows girders, purlins, and subpurlins. If a dead load of 8.32 psf acts on the tributary area of one of the sub-purlins, determine the equivalent distributed load that acts on the sub-purlin.

A 9-ft-long, simply-supported beam supports a concentrated dead load of 465 lb at its center. Determine the maximum bending moment in the beam.

Which of the following is also referred to as work specialization?

The density of a dried piece of 3×10 Cottonwood dimension lumber that is 16 feet long and has a moisture content of 9% is _______.

Find the reduced roof live load for a one-story building which has columns evenly spaced every 14 feet in the north-south direction and 17 feet in the east-west direction. The building has an ordinary pitched roof with a slope of 12 inch/foot.

Determine the rain load, R, on a flat roof given the following data.Vertical distance from primary roof drain to scupper inlet, ds = 4.4 in.Vertical distance to top of rain water above scupper inlet, dh = 2.3 in.

Determine the rain load, R, on a flat roof given the following data.Vertical distance from primary roof drain to scupper inlet, ds = 6.6 in.Vertical distance to top of rain water above scupper inlet, dh = 5.0 in.

The two columns in the following floor framing plan support only loads from a theater with movable seats on the second floor. The city has approved floor live load reductions for this particular building. A dead load of 12.4 psf acts on the tributary area of the columns. Combine this with the reduced floor live load, and then determine the total load that acts on one of the columns.

A column is loaded in compression as follows. What is the controlling factored load for ASD?Dead load: 22 kipsFloor live load: 4 kipsRoof rain load: 3 kipsRoof live load: 6 kips

The two columns in the following floor framing plan support only loads from a restaurant on the second floor. The city has approved floor live load reductions for this particular building. A dead load of 12.6 psf acts on the tributary area of the columns. Combine this with the reduced floor live load, and then determine the total load that acts on one of the columns.
