In reviewing the support reactions the results are not what I would expect, can someone review my methodology

Just to illustrate my point: in my model I am looking at nodes 1-7 support reactions. I would expect node 2 and 7 to have the same dead load and snow loads. The truss is carrying the same tributary width of roof snow yet the support reactions do not match up.

Another issue I have is the building columns seem to be taking some of the crane loads yet the columns are separate from each other and only connected through shear connected bracing points.

Is there something I am overlooking?
