Application | Application 1: Minimum shank and head diameter of nails for stucco
lath and reinforcing, on buildings to which Part
9 applies [see Sentence 1.3.3.3.(1) of Division A for application of
Part 9]. |

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of the shear failure or withdrawal
of nails, which could lead to inadequate support for stucco lath or reinforcing,
which could lead to delamination or cracking under gravity, wind or impact
loads, or freeze-thaw stresses. Where stucco is applied
to masonry chimneys, this is to limit the probability of precipitation or
meltwater ingress, which could lead to the premature failure of chimney liners,
which could lead to the leakage of carbon monoxide gas into living space,
which could lead to the acute poisoning or asphyxiation of persons.
