Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of discontinuity between top plates,
which could lead to an inability to resist expected lateral loads, which could
lead to the excessive deflection or failure of wall plates. For
floors and constructions supporting floors, this is to limit the probability
of:
This is to limit the probability of excessive movement, vibration
or deflection of floors, which could lead to negative effects on the psychological
well-being of persons.
