Reliability-Based Design Snow Loads. II: Reliability Assessment and Mapping Procedures

AbstractThis paper describes the development of reliability-targeted ground snow load maps for use in building (roof) design. The proposed procedures aim to ensure that structures designed achieve a target safety index, taken to be 3.0 as defined in ASCE 7 (ASCE 2010). When applied to the U.S. state...
