    The document discusses calculating characteristic ground snow loads for the UK and Republic of Ireland according to Eurocode 1 and provides examples of adjusting ground snow loads based on return period. Specifically, it gives the characteristic snow load sk for the UK/Ireland as 0.58 kN/m2, and shows how to calculate design snow load sd for different return periods and load factors based on sk. It then provides an example calculation for determining the ratio of snow load sn to sk for a coefficient of variation of 0.5 and return period of 90 years.
