I have an example of roof load calculations - from the British Plastics Federation Code of Prctice, (top right column) found here: http://postimg.org/image/y5tyi0bsr/
I have come here to hopefully get a structural engineers view on this simple equation mistake, maybe there is something I am missing - and it is not a mistake , be interested to get any opinions.
Thanks
