Application | Application 1: Protection of insulation located in areas where it
may be subject to physical damage, in walls, ceilings, roofs or floors separating
heated space from unheated space, in buildings to
which Part 9 applies [see Sentence 1.3.3.3.(1) of Division A for application

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that insulation will be physically
damaged, which could lead to compromised thermal resistance, which could lead
to excessively low temperatures of interior surfaces or within assemblies.
This is to limit the probability of condensation, which could lead
to deterioration, which could lead to compromised structural integrity of
assemblies acting as or protected by environmental separators, which could
lead to harm to persons.
