Magnitude of snow load depends on geographic location (ground snow load), roof slope, drifting snow, sliding snow, extra load from rain on snow, adjacent roofs and sites, and consequences of load in excess of design value. R Rain load The weight of water that could accumulate on a roof from blockage of the primary drainage system. The roof is designed to withstand the load created

Simultaneous horizontal and vertical loads due to wind acting at the building envelope. Magnitude of wind load depends on geographic location, site exposure, building height and building shape. on building during earthquakes. Magnitude of earthquake load depends on geographic location, site (soil) characteristics, and building height, mass, stiffness and connection details.
