Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that dynamic loads due to use and
occupancy, or wind, will lead to crack growth due to fatigue, which could
lead to a reduction in the capacity of the structural elements of buildings
such that they will be unable to resist the forces due to the maximum expected
loads, which could lead to structural failure, which could lead to harm to
persons. |
