Ice loads on Piperacks
Ice loads on Piperacks
(OP)
We are analyzing an existing piperack up north were freezing rain is possible. If ice loads are considered this greatly increases the gravity load on the structure. ASCE 7 does describe the process to determine the weight on the structure and the load combinations but PIP only addresses that it could be considered.
Has anyone else run across this situation before and if so do they have any suggestions or guidance.
Thanks, Eric
