9ASCE* <br />Snow <br />Results: <br />Mapped Elevation: <br />Data Source: <br />Date Accessed: Wed Sep 27 2023 <br />In "Case Study" areas, site -specific case studies are required to establish ground snow loads. Extreme local <br />variations in ground snow loads in these areas preclude mapping at this scale. <br />Ground snow load determination for such sites shall be based on an extreme value statistical analysis of data <br />available in the vicinity of the site using a value with a 2 percent annual probability of being exceeded (50-year <br />mean recurrence interval). <br />Site is outside ASCE/SEI 7-16, Table 7.2-5 boundaries. For ground snow loads in this area, see SEAW Snow Load <br />Analysis for Washington, 2nd Ed. (1995). Structural Engineers Association of Washington, Seattle, WA. <br />Statutory requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction are not included. <br />Snow load values are mapped to a 0.5 mile resolution. This resolution can create a mismatch between the mapped <br />elevation and the site -specific elevation in topographically complex areas. Engineers should consult the local <br />authority having jurisdiction in locations where the reported `elevation' and `mapped elevation' differ significantly <br />from each other. <br />https://asce7hazardtool.onIine/ Page 3 of 4 Wed Sep 27 2023 <br />
