About this calculation
Three cases: undrifted (i) and drifted (ii), (iii).
Design basis
EN 1991-1-3, 5.3.3, Fig. 5.3
Input data
- Snow at the site: Site; Kazakhstan snow zone; Ground snow load sk; Site altitude above sea level; Exposure coefficient Ce; Thermal coefficient Ct; Design situation; Exceptional snow coefficient Cesl
- Roof: Left slope pitch α1; Right slope pitch α2; Left slope length on plan; Right slope length on plan; Snow cannot slide off the eaves
Output
- Shape coefficients μ and loads by zone
- Snow load arrangement
- Detailed PDF, Word, Excel report
FAQ
How is the ground snow load s_k obtained?
Pick a settlement — the snow zone and sk are filled from the SP RK EN 1991-1-3 map, or enter the value manually.
Are snow drifts considered?
Yes: separate calculations for abutting taller structures, parapets and obstructions, multispan valleys, overhangs and snow guards.
What does the result include?
Characteristic loads by zone, the load arrangement and a detailed PDF, Word and Excel report.
