| Objective | OS2 Structural Safety |
| Attribution | |
| Application | Application 1: Parging for unit masonry walls that are in contact
with the ground and that are subject to hydrostatic pressure, where the ground
level outside is higher than the ground level inside, in buildings to
which Part 9 applies [see Sentence 1.3.3.3.(1) of Division A for application

| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of an inadequate substrate, which
could lead to discontinuity in the waterproofing, which could lead to the
ingress of moisture from the ground, including water that is under hydrostatic
pressure, which could lead to deterioration, which could lead to compromised
structural integrity of elements protected by such 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 applied as a substrate for
waterproofing. |
