| Application | Application 1: Buckling prevention for loadbearing interior
wall studs, in wood-frame constructions to which Section 9.23. applies
[see Sentence 9.23.1.1.(1) for application of Section 9.23.].
Exceptions:
except as stated in Sentence 9.23.10.2.(2), which applies to

| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of an inability to resist expected
gravity loads, which could lead to buckling in the plane of walls.
For walls supporting floors, this is to limit the probability of
compromised structural integrity, which could lead to excessive movement,
vibration or deflection, which could lead to negative effects on the psychological
well-being of persons.
