EXAMPLE 1.4
1
The unheated storage facility shown in Fig. 1–16 is located on flat
open terrain in southern Illinois, where the specified ground snow
load is 0.72 kN > m2. Determine the design snow load on the roof
which has a slope of 4%.
SOLUTION
Since the roof slope is 6 5%, we will use Eq. 1–5. Here, Ce = 0.8
for open terrain, Ct = 1.2, and Is = 0.8. Thus,
pf = 0.7CeCtIspg
= 0.7(0.8)(1.2)(0.8)(0.72 kN>m2)
Fig. 1–16 = 0.3871 kN>m2
= 0.387 kN>m2 Ans.
