| Objective | OS1 Fire Safety |
| Attribution | |
| Application | Application 1: Minimum dimensions and orientation of staples used
to fasten roof or wall sheathing or subflooring, in wood-frame constructions
to which Section 9.23. applies [see Sentence 9.23.1.1.(1) for
application of Section 9.23.]. |

| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of an inadequate diameter, thickness
or crown length, or incorrect orientation, of staples, which could lead to
inadequate capacity, rigidity or pull-through resistance, which could lead
to an inability to resist expected lateral, gravity or wind-uplift loads.
Where assemblies are required to provide fire resistance, this is
to limit the probability of compromised fire resistance of the assembly, which
could lead to harm to persons.
