| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that the performance of
glass will fall significantly below expectations, which could lead
to failure, which could lead to harm to persons. Intent 2: [Clauses (e) and (h)] To limit the probability that the performance of insulating glass
will fall significantly below expectations, which could lead to inadequate
control of heat transfer, which could lead to compromised structural
integrity of window assemblies and adjacent exterior wall assemblies,
which could lead to condensation on interior glass surfaces, which
could lead to deterioration, which could lead to harm to persons.
