Explanation:

6/12 = 0.5ft

length = 16

width = 14

The volume of cinder concrete = 0.5 * 16 *14 = 112

the resultant force that is caused by the dead load

density of cinder concrete * volume

density is assumed to be 108

dead load = 108 * 112 = 12096 lb

resultant force caused by the live load

liveload = 125lb/ft2

= 125 * 14 * 16

= 28000 lb
