Structural design is a set of processes that assures that the building is capable of resisting applied loads, fulfilling its functions, and sustaining its stability.
The processes of structural design can be summarized in the following steps:
- Determination of applied loads.
- Selecting of an economic and proper structural system.
- Structural analysis of the structural system to get internal actions.
- Design of structural members to resist internal actions.
The determination of loads is a critical step because any deviation in calculations of applied loads will lead to an underestimate of loads, which may cause structural failures, or it will lead to an overestimate of loads, which may cause uneconomic design.
In this course, we will study the determination of snow loads.
This course is the first course of a series related to the determination of loads; all of these courses are independent and do not require any perquisites. The following is the list of related courses:
- Determination of Dead, Soil Pressure, & Hydrostatic Pressure Loads as Per ASCE7-22.
- Determination of Live & Roof Live Loads as Per ASCE7-22.
- Determination of Rain Loads as Per ASCE7-22.
- Determination of Snow Loads as Per ASCE7-22.
- Determination of Flood Loads as Per ASCE7-22.
- Determination of Ice Loads as Per ASCE7-22.
- Determination of Crane Loads as Per ASCE7-22, MBMA2016, and AISE13.
- Determination of Wind Loads as Per ASCE7-22.
- Determination of Seismic Loads as Per ASCE7-22.
- Load Combinations as Per ASCE7-22.
