Hello all,
I have a question regarding the roof live load and the Attic live load without the storage.
The IRC recommends a min roof live load of 15 psf (smaller than 4:12 pitch) and min attic live load without the storage is 10 psf.
So, do I need to add them to find the total roof live load for designing the wall or foundation below for residential projects. Thank you for your time.
