Depending on the selected standard and the National Annex, the snow load zones can be selected using stored map materials with a double-click, thus applying the basic parameters for determining the loading. After assigning the roof geometry and the generated load cases, this information is automatically transferred to the structure to be designed.
Generation of Snow Loads According to EN 1991-1-3 and ASCE/SEI 7-16
Eurocode 1, Parts 1 to 3, and American standard ASCE/SEI 7-16 describe the general effects due to snow loads. The load applications for duopitch, monopitch, and flat roofs required by the standards are stored in a tool in RFEM and RSTAB so that these effects can be generated easily.
