    I built my home 5 years ago and the roof needed to handle 105 psf to be allowed. Mind you, this is in the mountains of western Canada, but still, what’s this 12 pounds stuff?

    Don't we all have engineered trusses that hold up the roof designed for weight

    Lbs per square foot? At what height of snow? Wouldn’t Lbs per cubic inch be the proper measurement?
