9.23.14.6.(1) | Application | Intent |
| OS2 | OP2 | OH1 |
| Objective | OS2 Structural Safety |
| Attribution | |
| Application | Application 1: Fastening of panel-type subfloors on which resilient
flooring is applied without underlayment, in wood-frame constructions to which Section 9.23. applies [see Sentence 9.23.1.1.(1) for application
of Section 9.23.]. |

| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of inadequate withdrawal resistance,
which could lead to an inability to resist withdrawal forces imposed by the
shrinkage of floor framing, which could lead to—where resilient flooring
is installed to provide required moisture resistance [see Article 9.30.1.2.]—nail
popping, which could lead to compromised integrity of the moisture protection,
which could lead to exposure of the subfloor to water. This
is to limit the probability of deterioration, which could lead to compromised
integrity of the floor system, which could lead to harm to persons.
