Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A building has a flat roof exposed to a heavy snow load of 60 psf. If the building is relocated to a region with a 30 psf snow load requirement, calculate the structural modifications that must occur to accommodate changes in load.

💡 Hint: Think of how you need to adapt the structure based on changing loads.

Question 2

Explain how local building codes influence snow load calculations for structures in different geographic locations.

💡 Hint: Consider the reason building codes exist.
