Structure total weight

Hello. I want to look at the total weight of the building, but the weight in the determination of the earthquake load in the building summary report and the g+q weight that I gathered from the floor general information are different. Is this difference due to the value multiplied by the live load participation coefficient (which is different when I add the wis) or because the weight of the rigid parts in the junction areas is deducted? Does the program decrease the difference of these rigid parts when calculating the self-weight?

Does the program decrease the difference of these rigid parts when calculating the self-weight? (totalG+totalQ* hkk ).
 
Thank you for your answer. There is one more thing I want to ask, does the program also calculate the rigid regions in the junction areas, since the column beams accept rod elements while calculating the self-weight, for example, is the length of a clean span taken as the height when calculating the weight of a beam, or is it the length from the joint point to the joint point?

The clean span is taken. Example calculation:
