2.1 The floor system of an apartment building consist of a 4-inch thick reinforced concrete slab resting on a three steel beams, which in turn are supported by two steel girders as shown in Figure 2 . The areas of the cross section of the floor beams and girders are \( 18.3 \) in \( ^{2} \) and \( 32.7 \) in \( ^{2} \) respectively. Determine the dead loads at beam \( C D \) and girder \( A E \). 2.2 For the apartment building whose floor system was described in Figure 2, determine the live loads acting on the beam CD and girder AE. For hospital patient rooms, residential dwellings apartment hotel guests rooms, school classroom, the minimum live load is \( 40 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft} \).
