The roof load is a rating that determines how many pounds per square foot the roof will withstand. Most roofs are rated above 300 pounds per square foot or more.

Example of a static load on the roof?

A static load on a roof could be the weight of the roof itself, as well as any permanently fixed structures such as solar panels, HVAC units, or satellite dishes. These loads do not change or move once installed and exert a constant force on the roof structure.


What is dead load and live load?

Dead load refers to the weight of the permanent structure and materials of a building, such as walls, floors, and the roof. Live load refers to the weight of temporary or movable objects that are added to the structure, such as people, furniture, and snow.


If you are only given 1 kilo ohms resistors with 0.5 watt power rating how can you construct a resistive load of 1 kilo ohms with 1 watt power rating?

Well...you can't. Not a load with an exact 1 watt power rating. But if you can live with a 2-watt power rating (in a circuit that would be yes--it's called derating and you do it for added life, or because you've already got the parts) you'd connect two resistors in series and set that aside, connect two more resistors in series, then connect the two series networks in parallel. Each series network is rated at 2 kilohms; paralleling the two networks brings you back down to 1 kilohm.


What standard building techniques are used to ensure that structures can withstand force placed upon them egthe force from the weight of snow on a roof?

Standard building techniques to ensure that structures can withstand forces like snow loads on a roof include using appropriate roof pitch angles to allow snow to slide off, reinforcing roof framing with trusses or rafters, and ensuring proper insulation to prevent ice dams. Additionally, engineers may specify snow load calculations and structural design requirements to meet building code standards for snow load resistance.


What is the difference between full load amps and running load amps?

Full load amps is the maximum rated amps that the motor should draw according to its nameplate rating. Running load amps is the actual amperage the motor is drawing at that point in time when the test is taken. Some motor loads vary depending on if the load is cyclic. The reading on this type of motor would be from no load amps to full load amps.

What does it mean to have structural integrity?

In buiding, structural integrity means the stucture can support the weight of the load and hold together under the load. For example, if a building has structural integrity, the walls can support the load of the rafters and roof.
