Abstract
The Tajima dome (a tentative name) is to be build in Hyogo prefecture, with 59.4 m in height and its roof is 75m long. The roof is movable roof type and consist of materials 4 fluoride ethylene resin coating glass fiber cloth, fixed roof section are gal barium fluorine steel plate. This area belongs to a heavy snowfall area, and due to Japan architecture society building load indicator/the commentary (1993), reproduction expected snow depth value becomes 2.91 m in 100 year return period. Accordingly evaluation of snow load on the roof become a big problem. From such background, This paper analyze the weather data, and the rational roof snow load estimate by new method of Tajima Dome.
