In the gabled roof structure shown in Figure P2.13, determine the sloped roof snow load \(P_{s}\). The building is heated and is located in a windy area in Boston. Its roof consists of asphalt shingles. The building is used for a manufacturing facility, placing it in a type II occupancy category. Determine the roof slope factor, \(C_{s}\) using the ASCE graph shown in Figure P2.19. If roof trusses are spaced at \(16 \mathrm{ft}\) on center, what is the uniform snow load along a truss?
