I have been searching for information regarding load factors for snow loading in combination with dead and live load. IBC calls for 1.2 D + 1.6 L + .5 S but then says any load comibinations that do not include seismic forces shall be governed by ACI 9.2 (IBC 1605.2.1). However, ACI does not make reference to any snow loading, at least I did not find any reference. Can anyone give some advice?
