| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of an inability to accommodate
dimensional changes due to variations in moisture content, which could lead
to jamming of sheet edges, which could lead to buckling of cladding.
For exterior floors or environmental separators supporting such
a floor, this is to limit the probability of the excessive deformation, displacement
or failure of required environmental separation elements, which could lead
to deterioration, which could lead to compromised structural integrity, which
could lead to excessive movement, vibration or deflection, which could lead
to negative effects on the psychological well-being of persons.
