I've spent some time with the search function and just can't seem to find what I am looking for - and please forgive me as I've not done any ASME work in my career and am learning. I have Megyesy's PV handbook though!

Division 2 states that the User's Design spec shall contain loadings Per AD-110. Originally, I was told there was an external pressure of 11.0 KSF. I am now being told that I should assume this value to be the external loadings and can then calculate the AD-110(e) reactions at supports (saddles in my case). My customer has soil, snow and potentially traffic loads. How do I express this AD-110(e) item?
For the record, we're trying to put potential customer info into Div 2 format and I'm lost. Thank you in advance,
Emil
