Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of vertical displacement of floors
at beams, which could lead to inadequate support for floor joists, which could
lead to an inability to resist expected gravity loads, which could lead to
the excessive movement, deformation or failure of floor assemblies.
This is to limit the probability of compromised structural integrity,
which could lead to:
This is to limit the probability of harm to persons.
