Scope

Provides design values of snow and ice actions for use in structural design. It is intended to be used in conjunction with AS/NZS 1170.0, which gives the procedure for structural design. Snow regions are defined and ground snow loads are provided for a range of annual probabilities of exceedance. Other factors cover the environment around the structure, the geometry of the structure and the effect of winds on snow distribution.
