A Guide to the Use & Understanding of the Snow Provisions of ASCE 7-02
Publisher: ASCE | Year: 2004 | pages: 128 | ISBN: 0784407258, 9780784407257
Snow Loading is a frequent and costly cause of structural performance failures. In fact, snow is the controlling roof load in half of US States. As a structural engineer, you must be familiar with snow loads. Snow Loads: A Guide to the Use and Understanding of the Snow Load Provisions of ASCE 7-02 will provide you with the tools you need to understand and compensate for snow loads in structural design. This is the only book of its kind that provides a detailed authoritative interpretation of snow load provisions of ASCE Standard 7-02. Included are examples of flat roof loads, sloped roof loads, partial loads, as well as all types of conventional drift loading. Readers will benefit from the frequently asked questions section, which addresses and demonstrates the correct implementation of the provisions of ASCE 7-02, such as unique snow loading cases and ways to mitigate drift loads on existing roofs due to new additions.
This Guide is essential for practicing structural engineers. Over 70 figures and tables clearly illustrate snow load scenarios. In addition, each chapter contains numerous worked examples that will aid in understanding and applying difficult wind loads concepts.

A Guide to the Use & Understanding of the Snow Provisions of ASCE 7-05
Publisher: ASCE | Year: 2007 | pages: 176 | ISBN: 0784408572, 978-0784408575
Snow Loads: Guide to the Snow Load Provisions of ASCE 7-05 provides a detailed authoritative interpretation of the snow load provisions of ASCE/SEI Standard 7-05. The new Snow Loads is a revision of the previous edition that served as a guide to ASCE/SEI Standard 7-02. Like its predecessor, the new Snow Loads includes examples of flat roof loads, sloped roof loads, partials loads, and all types of conventional drift loading. New material includes a chapter of three complete design examples: a metal building with a roof step, a pole barn with a hip roof, and a single-family residence with attached, two-car garage. Also included are recent changes to the provisions for unbalanced loads and rain-on-snow surcharge loads. Several example problems have been updated and two fresh examples added. The revised and expanded Frequently Asked Questions chapter addresses common snow loading cases not explicitly covered in ASCE/SEI Standard 7-05. The new Snow Loads is the only book devoted to the illustration, interpretation, and application of the snow load provisions of ASCE/SEI Standard 7-05. An essential reference for practicing structural engineers.

A Guide to the Use & Understanding of the Snow Provisions of ASCE 7-10
Publisher: ASCE | Year: 2010 | pages: 176 | ISBN: 9780784411117
Snow Loads: Guide to the Snow Load Provisions of ASCE 7-10 provides a detailed and authoritative interpretation of the snow load provisions of Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures, Standard ASCE/SEI 7-10. With clear, concise language, Snow Loads illustrates the key concepts and guides for applying the provisions to the design of new and existing structures that could collect falling or drifting snow. Like its predecessors that accompanied earlier editions of the Standard, this new book includes examples of flat roof loads, sloped roof loads, partial loads, and all types of conventional drift loading. New material includes design examples for leeward drift and sliding loads on adjacent structures and an improved discussion of bays susceptible to ponding loads. The Frequently Asked Questions chapter contains six new discussions.
Snow Loads is an essential supplement to ASCE/SEI Standard 7 for all engineers, architects, and construction professionals who work on projects in regions subject to snow.
