Thrown Snow Loads
Thrown Snow Loads
(OP)
A colleague of mine is working on a sound wall alongside of an interstate highway. Just wondering if there is any information out there on the horizontal load that is exerted on the wall due to snow from a plow being thrown against it?
Any help would be appreciated.
