SNOW WARNING

DISCLAIMER: The snow load table has been prepared from load tests carried out in ABSCO INDUSTRIES. Bags of weight were used to simulate the weight of snow and the sheds were assembled in accordance with instructions supplied by ABSCO. The ABSCO snow frames were also fitted in accordance with instructions supplied by ABSCO INDUSTRIES. The ABSCO sheds were erected and anchored to a level concrete slab in accordance with the ABSCO ASSEMBLY Instructions provided with the sheds. The calculations shown in the tables should be used as a guide only, as ABSCO INDUSTRIES and Fernandes & Associates Pty. Ltd. accepts no responsibility, nor offers any warranty or guarantee for snow damage to your ABSCO Shed or its contents.

In areas where snow falls occur YOU MUST ANCHOR the shed to a solid foundation (concrete is

recommended), in accordance with the chart below.

ABSCO QUALITY STEEL SHEDS are designed to handle light snow falls ONLY, up to 10 lbs/ft2 e.g.

Equivalent inches of snow Snow Weight

38.4 inches of light/dry snow 10 lbs/ft2

5.8 inches of heavy/wet snow 10 lbs/ft2

2.1 inches of ice 10 lbs/ft2

In heavy snow fall areas you must install ABSCO SNOW BRACING KITS SNOW3018

The following charts indicate the number of anchors and Snow Frame bracing kits required.

*Please refer to the attached Snow Table for the number of Snow braces required for your local snow fall area.

WARNINGS:

A. DO NOT OPEN THE SHED DOOR IF THERE IS SNOW ON THE ROOF OF THE SHED. OPENING THE DOOR WILL REDUCE THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE SHED. B. REMOVE THE SNOW FROM THE ROOF BEFORE OPENING THE SHED DOOR. C. AS SOON AS THERE IS SNOW ON THE SHED ROOF, REMOVE THE SNOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO AVOID FURTHER SNOW BUILD UP.
