    The document outlines minimum live load requirements for different roof types and slopes according to the National Standard of Canada for Canadian Construction Projects (NSCP). It provides the minimum roof live load in kilopascals (kPa) that must be supported based on the roof slope classification, tributary area of the structural member, and building type, with lower loads required as slopes increase and areas decrease.
