Snow Load Calculation - How to Determine Snow Loads Including Snow Drift

Learn how to calculate the snow loads on the roof of a structure. Video discusses the calculations required to determine the flat roof snow load, sloped roof snow load, minimum snow load, and snow drift loads. These calculations are required for all buildings within the United States since the International Building Code (IBC) refers to ASCE 7 for determining the snow load.
