Given two buildings, both placed on level ground at elevation of 140 ft. Building number 1 has a footprint of 40 ft by 60 ft and has a total weight of 2400 kips. Building number 2 has a footprint of 30 ft by 30ft and a total weight of 1440 kips. Point A is midway between both buildings (a plan view of the buildings and point A are shown in the diagram). A pipeline is planned to be running in between the buildings intersecting point A as seen on the diagram. The top of the pipe is at an elevation of 130. What is the total induced stress from both buildings on top of the pipe at point A? image attached.
