Roof Live Load - Residential Light Construction
Roof Live Load - Residential Light Construction
(OP)
Can someone direct me to a section in UBC97 that allows roof live load to be ignored when floor live load is considered in total load? Hence, roof live load does not have to be considered to act simultaneously with floor live load in residential light contruction. ???

Section 1612.2.1 gives load combination factors for LRFD, and Section 1612.3.1 is basic load combinations for WSD.
