Computation of Loads

The document details the computation of dead and live loads for a structure, including total roof and ceiling loads, as well as self-weight calculations. The total dead load amounts to 10.975 kN, while the total live load is 1.0668 kN. Specific calculations for truss loads and material weights are also provided, emphasizing the contributions from various components such as C-purlins and gypsum board.
