Based upon surveys of actual live loads in office buildings and warehouses, and upon consideration of probably actual live loads in apartment buildings and places of assembly, system for reduction of live loads in design of building members is developed; if basic load is 100 lb per sq ft or less, basic live load may be reduced for design of any member by 0.08% per sq ft of tributary area; assembly occupancy excludes any reduction. (discussion by D. L. MARVER and N. N. FREEMAN, in n 8 Oct p 1161-4)
