This model describes an innovative approach to determining snow loads for sawtooth roofs according to DIN EN 1991-1-3. By precisely defining snow drifts at each roof node, the load cases "Snow with drift" and "Snow without drift" are quickly generated. The linked image (https://www.dlubal.com/en/img/15951) illustrates the arrangement of nodes and supports the clear representation of load allocation. The application enables efficient analysis and practical implementation of complex roof loads.
