Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that fasteners will be located
near areas of stress concentration at cutouts, which could lead to shingles
being torn or displaced under wind-uplift loads and loads imposed by the shrinkage
of shingles, which could lead to water penetrating directly to roof decking
or sheathing, which could lead to deterioration, which could lead to the structural
failure of roofs or walls or of assemblies protected by roofs or walls, which
could lead to harm to persons. |
