| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of an inadequate substrate, which
could lead to discontinuity in the dampproofing, which could lead to an inadequate
resistance to moisture transfer from the ground, which could lead to the ingress
of moisture from the ground, which could lead to deterioration, which could
lead to compromised structural integrity of elements supported or protected
by the walls, which could lead to harm to persons. Intent 2: To expand the application of Subsection 9.20.3. to
include parging on masonry below ground that is used as a dampproofing substrate.
