| Application | Application 1: Minimum thickness of roof sheathing for flat roof
surfaces used as walking decks, 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 an inadequate grade or thickness
of sheathing relative to framing member spacing and edge support, which could
lead to an inability to resist expected gravity and lateral loads, which could
lead to excessive deflection, which could lead to damage to roofing or walking
surfaces. For floors and elements supporting floors, this
is to limit the probability of persons tripping or falling, which could lead
to harm to persons.
