Structural Design Requirements for Solar Installations

The self-weight of the photovoltaic panels and modules and ballast (if any) shall be treated as dead load. Roof Live load shall be determined per section 1607 of the OSSC.
Calculation Rules for Photovoltaic Panel Brackets: A Practical Guide

"A well-designed bracket system can increase energy yield by 4-7% through optimal angle maintenance." - International Renewable Energy Agency (IREA)
Updates on ASCE 7 Standard for Solar PV Systems

If any portion of system rises over 24 inches above the roof surface, you need to model live load in that portion of the system. If an entire system is
Structural and Electrical Load Assessment for Rooftop

Dead And Live Loads

Live load: A live load, on the other hand, is a dynamic load, which means it can change over time. Live loads include the weight of occupants, furniture, snow, wind, and even seismic activity.
