Calculation of the Snow Load
According to New York State Building Code, we have to follow the method described by ASCE 7, Section 7.3
Step 1: We identify the ground snow load in the area of Ithaca using the figure below.
According to the figure above, we find that the ground snow load is 45.
Step 2: Determine the flat roof snow load using the ground snow load.
Determining Exposure Factor
According to terrain categories listed in ASCE Section 1609.4, the building site fits into category B. Therefore, Exposure factor is:
Step 3: Determing Thermal Factor
We choose the value, 1.0 for Thermal Factor. The structure doesn't seem to fit any of the bottom 3 categories.
Step 4: Snow Importance Factor
We determine that the Snow Importance Factor is 1.
Step 5: Calculate the flat roof snow load:
P
f
=
According to terrain categories listed in ASCE Section 1609.4, the building site fits into category B. Therefore, Exposure factor is: 0.9
