I am not saying that the drifts cannot happen as shown in the attached picture above. But, that is a different situation than I originally posted. My panels are over 40' feet tall and the canopy is about 30' down, not a 5' elevation difference as shown in the picture. I understand how the...

I understand that I cannot deviate from the code. But, the code is very vague when it comes to canopies. I was looking for something I may have missed in the code.

The canopy is about 30' long and cantilever's out 5'-0" I remember seeing a max angle the drift will go up in the old BOCA codes but I can't find anything in the new codes about it.

Let me know if you can see the file. If not, I could email it to you. Thanks for your reply. http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=bedf60f9-b047-4345-9697-2c70fc33d88d&file=20140103110651874.pdf

I am designing a precast building with a small (cantilevered 5'-0") canopy at one end. The building is approximately 1300' long and 40'-0" tall. The drift load would be around 200 psf and 40' long, then truncated to the 5' canopy according to what I can find in the ASCE. This would usually...
