That sounds the sort of project that doesn't have 'typical' anything. Best to contact the project structural engineer to get an idea.
 
For the building area loads, I would expect light loading (mostly roof). You'll have long clear spans though so those loads will collect and be delivered to the sidewall foundations predominately. The planes themselves will load the slab on grade.

I assume that the hanger will be mostly one tall story with some office/storage mezzanines mixed in.
