4. Open web steel joists are to be used to construct a floor with a unit dead load of 45 psf (including the weight of the joists) and unit live load of 50 psf. The joist spacing is 2'-0" 0.c. with a span of 36'-0". Select both the lightest joist AND the shallowest depth joist if deflection under live load is limited to L/360. Show calculations to determine plf. Label your answer as to whether it is the lightest or shallowest joist. (5 points each x 2 = 10 points total)
