c. Existing buildings. The Building Inspector may prescribe the maximum loads which may be imposed upon the floors of existing buildings.
d. Posting of loads. In every mercantile building the allowable live load as approved by the Building In- spector shall be marked on metal plates and posted and maintained in conspicuous places on each floor to which they relate.
(2) Load requirements limits. Every plank, slab, and arch, and every floor beam carrying one hundred square feet of floor or less, shall be of sufficient strength to bear safely the combined dead and live load supported by it, but the floor live loads may be reduced for other parts of the structure in accordance with Paragraph (3) of this Section.

In all buildings except armories, garages, gymnasiums, storage buildings, wholesale stores, and assembly halls, for all flat slabs over two hundred square feet in area, reinforced in two or more directions, and for all floor beams, girders, or trusses carrying over two hundred square feet of floor, ten per cent reduction.
b. For the same, but carrying over three hundred square feet of floor, fifteen per cent reduction.
c. For the same, but carrying over four hundred square feet of floor, twenty-five per cent reduction.
d. These reductions shall not be made if the mem- ber carries more than one floor and therefore has its live load reduced according to the table below.
177
TOWN RECORDS
e. In public garages, for all flat slabs of over three hundred square feet area reinforced in more than one di- rection, and for all floor beams, girders, and trusses carry- ing over three hundred square feet of floor, and for all columns, walls, piers, and foundations, twenty-five per cent reduction.
f. In all buildings except storage buildings, whole- sale stores, and public garages, for all columns, girders, trusses, walls, piers, and foundations, the total live loads may be reduced as follows :
Carrying one floor No reduction
Carrying two floors 10 per cent reduction
Carrying three floors 20 per cent reduction
Carrying four floors 30 per cent reduction
(4) Roof loads. Roofs shall be designed to sup- port safely minimum live loads as follows:
a. Roofs with pitch of four inches or less per foot, a vertical load of forty pounds per square foot of horizon- tal projection applied either to half or to the whole of the roof.
b. Roofs with pitch of more than four inches and not more than eight inches per foot, a vertical load of fifteen pounds per square foot of horizontal projection and a wind load of ten pounds per square foot of surface acting at right angles to one slope, these two loads being assumed to act either together or separately.
Roofs with pitch of more than eight inches and c. not more than twelve inches per foot, a vertical load of ten pounds per square foot of horizontal projection and a wind load of fifteen pounds per square foot of surface act- ing at right angles to one slope, these two loads being as- sumed to act either together or separately.
d. Roofs with pitch of more than twelve inches per foot, a vertical load of five pounds per square foot of
178
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
horizontal projection and a wind load of twenty pounds per square foot of surface acting at right angles to one slope, these two loads being assumed to act either to- gether or separately.
(5) Wind pressure. a. In general. All build- ings and structures shall be calculated to resist a pressure per square foot on any vertical surface as follows :
For forty feet in height. Ten pounds
Portions from forty to eighty feet above ground Fifteen pounds
Portions more than eighty feet above
ground Twenty pounds
b. Increased pressure. Such pressures may be apportioned equally between the windward and leeward surfaces. The Building Inspector may require a build- ing or structure to be designed for larger pressure than the pressures given in the table, if, in his judgment, the exposure requires it.
c Bracing. If the resisting moments of the ma- terials of construction are not sufficient to resist the mo- ment of distortion due to wind pressure without exceeding the safe stresses of the material, additional bracing shall be introduced to supply the deficiency.
Article 3 taken from the table.
There being no further business under Article 3, the same was declared disposed of.
The meeting adjourned at 10:40 o'clock in the eve- ning.
