The following roof framing plan shows girders, purlins, and subpurlins. If a dead load of 7.45 psf acts on the tributary area of one of the sub-purlins, determine the equivalent point load that acts at the center of the sub-purlin.

The following roofing materials are stacked on a pallet at a construction site. The pallet is 4 ft by 6 ft, and the materials have been cut and stacked so that each layer completely covers the pallet. Use ASCE 7-10 to determine the total dead load resting on the pallet.6 layers of asphalt shingles8 layers of deck, metal, 20 gage5 layers of plywood, 3/8-in. thick

Determine the flat roof snow load, pf, for a building kept below freezing with a roof that is fully exposed in terrain category C and has a risk category of III. Assume the ground snow load is 53 psf. Do not consider the minimum roof snow load, pm.

Find the reduced roof live load for a one-story building which has columns evenly spaced every 16 feet in the north-south direction and 12 feet in the east-west direction. The building has an ordinary pitched roof with a slope of 2 inch/foot.

A dead load of 9.3 psf acts on a roof with a 6/12 inch/inch pitch. Determine the equivalent flat-roof load.

The following roof framing plan shows girders, purlins, and subpurlins. If a dead load of 7.84 psf acts on the tributary area of one of the purlins, determine the equivalent point load that acts at the center of the purlin.

Determine the flat roof snow load, pf, for an unheated building with a roof that is partially exposed in terrain category B and has a risk category of IV. Assume the ground snow load is 46 psf. Do not consider the minimum roof snow load, pm.

You have been tasked with designing a one-story fire station. The mean roof height is 20 ft, the roof angle is 10 degrees, and the effective wind area is 20 square feet. The basic wind speed has been provided by the local building authority and is 110 mph. Assume that exposure category C is applicable and that the building is not located on a hill or an escarpment. Also assume that the building is an enclosed simple diaphragm and that the building meets all five conditions listed in ASCE 7-10 section 30.5.1. Determine the positive net design wind pressure for h = 30 ft, pnet30, on Zone 3 of the Components and Cladding using the Simplified Envelope Procedure.

A 11-ft-long, simply-supported beam supports a concentrated dead load of 235 lb at its center. Determine the maximum bending moment in the beam.

The following roofing materials are stacked on a pallet at a construction site. The pallet is 4 ft by 8 ft, and the materials have been cut and stacked so that each layer completely covers the pallet. Use ASCE 7-10 to determine the total dead load resting on the pallet.8 layers of rigid insulation, 1/2-in.8 layers of decking, 3 in. wood (Douglas fir)9 layers of plywood, 3/8-in. thick
