Snow Load, Sliding Snow


ASCE-07-22 [1] requires consideration of sliding snow loads from an upper sloped roof onto a lower roof for slippery upper roofs with slopes greater than ΒΌ:12, and for nonslippery upper roofs with slopes greater than 2:12.



MkaPEB automatically calculates and applies the corresponding sliding snow load.
