Green Roof Dead Load Psf

Cubic feet of water as determined according to astm e2397.

Green roof dead load psf.

0 9d 1 0w a load factor of 1 6 when adding to load 7. The venny green roof has shallow substrates on two types of roof the first roof is on shipping containers and is designed for a dead load of 250kg m 2 and live load of 100kg m 2. The second trussed roof is designed for a dead load of 160kg m 2 and a live load of 40kg m 2. 3 3 dead loads dead loads consist of the permanent construction material loads comprising the roof floor wall and foundation systems including claddings finishes and fixed equipment.

For example appendix a indicates that one type of clay tile roof system has a live load value of 20 psf and a dead load value of 15 psf. 26 psf total live load 30 psf total dead load 56 psf factored loading. 1 2 d 1 6 l 0 5 s 1 2 26 psf 1 6 30 psf 0 5 30 psf 94 2 psf pcaslab. Soil does not necessarily occupy the full depth of the assembly.

On a roof with a slope greater than 4 to 12 the live load limit is typically adjusted downward from 20 psf to 15 psf to allow for the relatively greater dead load on the steeper roof. 1 2d 1 0e l 0 2s when h loads are present they shall have 6.

30 psf extensive green roof system. Maximum system dead load of psf determined according to astm e 2397 05 and e 2399 05. The values for dead loads in table 3 2 are for commonly used materials and constructions in light frame residential buildings. The second most common conservative assumption found in the industry is to assume that the green roof is a soil load rather than a dead load.

Vegetated roofs shall retain a minimum of x c f. Minimum system dead load of psf pounds per square foot determined according to astm e 2397 05 and e 2399 05.
