2.1. Determine the strength design load combinations for a reinforced concrete beam on a typical
l l l l l l l l l l l l l
floor of a multistory residential building using the nominal bending moments in Table 2.11. All
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
bending moments are in foot-kips. Assume the live load on the floor is less than 100 psf.
