Dead Loads are Fixed Position Gravity LoadsExamples are weights of the following:
• Ceiling,• Flooring,• Façade,• Structural Members.
Found from tables of weights of building materials (usually listed in weight/unit area)

Weights of Building Materials from AISC Manual of Steel Construction
Loads carried to the beam from the metal deck are uniformly distributed over the beam
Deck Carries Uniform Load to Beams
Loads carried to the larger beam (girder) from the smaller beams are concentrated at the point of the connection and applied as point loads
