Application | Application 1: Tying of joints in single top plates of loadbearing stud
walls, in wood-frame constructions to which Section 9.23. applies
[see Sentence 9.23.1.1.(1) for application of Section 9.23.].

lead to the excessive deflection or failure of wall plates. This
is to limit the probability of compromised structural integrity, which could
lead to:
This is to limit the probability of:
