| Application | Application 1: Minimum thickness and rating of roof sheathing for
roof surfaces not used as a walking deck, 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 inadequate stiffness or strength, which could lead to an inability
to resist expected gravity and lateral loads, which could lead to damage to
roofing. This is to limit the probability of compromised
structural integrity, which could lead to:
This is to limit the probability of harm to persons.
