Coating loads can be generated as member loads from ice loads, claddings, and so on. This feature is available in the menu under "Tools → Generate Loads → From Coating…" For this, you only have to specify the thickness and specific weight of the coating.

There are load generators available for beam structures, creating snow loads according to ASCE/SEI 7-10. The load cases are generated depending on the roof shape. Another generator creates coating loads (ice). You can save recurring load combinations as templates.
For design objects, you can optionally display sags or extreme results.
The results of solid stresses can be displayed as colored 3D points in the finite elements.
Do you want your structures to remain upright even in wind and snow? Then rely on the load wizards for plate and frame structures. You can now generate wind loads according to EN 1991‑1‑4 and snow loads according to EN 1991‑1‑3 (as well as other international standards). The load cases are generated depending on the roof shape.
