| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of blocking or furring providing
inadequate support and nailing surfaces for vertical edges of interior finishes,
sheathing or cladding materials, which could lead to inadequate strength of
wood-frame assemblies, which could lead to an inability to resist expected
vertical or lateral loads. This is to limit the probability
of:
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.
