A steel canopy at the drop-off
Suzhou Huangdai is logged as a steel canopy. Projection and clearance are the design, not a decorative depth.

Steel skylights and steel canopies, including glass canopies that sit inside a window contract.
Clearance under the beam
A drop-off canopy has to clear coaches or fire trucks if the road is a fire lane. Write the clear height from finished paving to the lowest steel. The table’s large area figure on some steel rows is not a substitute for that height.
Drainage off the edge
Decide whether water falls free at the drip or is collected in a gutter. A free edge over a pedestrian door is a complaint waiting to happen. Show the drip line on the section.
Snow, wind, and a hanging sign
The canopy load is not only its own weight. Add the design wind, any snow the specification names, and a sign or light if one hangs from the beam. A decorative depth on a render does not include those loads.
