9.13.3.5.(1) | Application | Intent |
OH1 | OS2 |
Objective | OS2 Structural Safety |
Attribution | |
Application | Application 1: Bituminous waterproofing installed on cast-in-place
concrete or 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
of Part 9]. |

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that the waterproofing will be
discontinuous or of insufficient thickness, 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. |
