Question 5028 Deck General

The correct answer is B) 529 kips. The reasoning is as follows: 1) With 450 kips in the setback and 200 kips in the cantilever pipe rack, the total weight supported is 650 kips. 2) The maximum permitted hook load is calculated as the total weight supported (650 kips) plus an additional 50% for dynamic loads, which equals 529 kips. 3) The other options are incorrect because A) 350 kips is too low, C) 550 kips is too high, and D) 750 kips is significantly higher than the calculated maximum.
