Use our Michigan Ground Snow Loads map to easily determine the ground snow load (2009 Michigan Building Code: Figure 1608.2) for any location in the State of Michigan. You can click on the map below to find the design ground snow load for that location.
The ground snow loads to be used in determining the design snow loads for roofs shall be determined in accordance with ASCE 7 or Figure 1608.2 for the contiguous United States and Table 1608.2 for Alaska.

1603.1.3 Roof snow load data. The ground snow load, P g, shall be indicated. In areas where the ground snow load, P g, exceeds 10 pounds per square foot (psf) (0.479 kN/m 2), the following additional information shall also be provided, regardless of whether snow loads govern the design of the roof:
