Intent
Intent 1: 
To limit the probability that the fabrication of glued-laminated wood structural components will result in structural properties, during the expected life of the building, that are less than those assumed for design in accordance with CAN/CSA-O177-M, which could lead to structural failure, which could lead to harm to persons.
