Hi

Looking at table D4 in NZS1170 for freestanding canopies, the table only valid for h/d less or equal to 1.0

I can along a case which h/d is more than 1.0 any idea about what values I can use.

If h/d is greater than 1.0, I'd do a check against Section 5. Select the worst case Cfig from either Section 5 or Appendix D3 for h/d=1
 
Hi,
I used the Euro code instead it shows for the value of 5-degree slope a factor of -0.7 for freestanding canopy no matter the depth and height of the canopy.
It should acts on the upper half of the canopy
