Not sure what specific permissions you want to grant to non-administrators, but we have articles about general guidelines here,

Here are two articles, where you can get some examples on how to set up delegation rules in administration.config:

Can anyone point me to documentation about how to delegate permissions to non-administrators to allow them to sync sites using the WMSVC?

Deploy your Web applications:

Administrative privileges are not required in order to deploy Web applications.
Ability to add powerful parameters to change text in files when they are deployed (such as prompting to replace a connection string when deploying from QA to staging environments).
Integration with the IIS 7.0 Web Management Service (WMSVC) for remote deployment by non-administrators.
Server administrators have granular control over the operations that can be performed and can delegate tasks to non-administrators.
In addition to the IIS Manager and Visual Studio 10, tasks can be performed using the command-line, PowerShell cmdlets or APIs.
