This requirement may be satisfied in ‘ccordance with the provisions of Section 205.3.2 or = 05.4.2, where applicable, 2064 Flor Live Loads Wiest General Floors shall be designed for the unit live loads as set forth, “Table 205-1. These loads shall be taken as the minimum “ive loads of horizontal projection to be used in the design ~ of buildings for the occupancies listed, and Joads at least _ equal shall be assumed for uses not listed inthis section but that creates or accommodates similar loadings. bere it can be determined in designing floors that the ‘etual live load will be greater than the value shown in Table 205-1, the actual live load shall be used in the design of sich buildings or portions thereof. Special provisions shill be made for machine and apparatus loads Se 08.32 Distribution of Uniform Floor Loads oS Where uniform floor loads are involved, consideration may be fimited to full dead losd on al span in combination with full live load on adjacent spans and alternate spans. CHAPTER 2~ Minimum Design Loads 2-18 2053.3 Concentrated Loads Floors shall be designed to support safely the uniformly distributed live loads prescribed in this section or the concentrated load given in Table 205-1 whichever produces the greatest load effects. Unless otherwise specified the indicated concentration shall be assumed to be uniformly distributed over an area 750-min square and shall be located so as to produce the maximum load effects in the structural member. Provision shall be made in areas where vehicles are used or stored for concentrated loads, L, consisting of two or more loads spaced 1.5m nominally on center without uniform live loads. Each load shall be 40 percent of the gross weight ‘of the maximum size vehicle to be accommodated, Parking garages for the storage of private or pleasure-type motor vehicles with no repair or refueling shall have @ floor system designed for a concentrated Toad of not less than KN acting on an area of 0.015 m? without uniform live loads. The condition of concentrated or uniform live load, combined in accordance with Section 203.3 or 203.4 as appropriate, producing the greatest stresses shall gover, 2053.4 Special Loads Provision shall be made for the special vertical and lateral Toads as set forth in Table 205-2.
