2. Steel floor beams arranged as shown in Figure 1(a) support a 175 mm thick reinforced concrete slab. The floor is designed to carry an imposed load of 3.5 kN/m2 and finishes of 1.0 kN/m². In addition, the external beam is also designed to carry 115 mm thick brick wall of 2.8 m high. Calculate the total UDL (in kN/m) that supported by the internal and external beam based on ULS and SLS. Figure 1(b) shows the individual steel beam span and the UB size is to be assumed.
