Abstract
The purpose of this experimental study is to obtain basic data on snow load and management of snow on the roof of membrane structure. This experiment was done using the indoor model and the outdoor apparatus. We studied properties of the roof snow under various conditions. By experiments of the indoor model we investigated characteristics on the static sliding friction and the kinetic sliding friction. As a result, it became clear that the causes which give great influence on the sliding snow properties were temperature, snow quality and snow load. By the outdoor experiments we investigated these results using factors as the index.
