Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that the rain load described in Sentence 4.1.6.4.(1), which is used for the design of structural elements supporting
a roof area on which rain can accumulate, will not take into account the maximum
expected accumulation of rainwater on the roof when drainage systems, such
as rainwater leaders, are blocked by debris, which could lead to structural
failure, which could lead to harm to persons. |
