Snow can create picturesque winter landscapes, but it also poses structural threats. Heavy snowfall can add excessive weight to a roof, increasing the risk of leaks and collapse. Structural engineers and construction companies use ground snow load maps when designing a new building. These help ensure a structure's roof is designed for the anticipated load. Reduces Risk of Ice Dams The only method available for gathering real-time data that enables engineers to spot problems before they become serious ones is through a structural monitoring building system. It also helps to decrease maintenance expenses and increases the longevity of the building....
