That is an very broad question. You may need to narrow it down a bit.

In Russia building design you!
 
Other than the normal strength and deflection requirements, I would think vibration would be important. one possible reference is Design Guide 11: Floor Vibrations Due To Human Activity AISC

"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning."
 
I agree with row. The traditional "L over" values may not take care of larger scale vibrations in your case. That AISC design guide is very good.

In Russia building design you!
