| Objective | OH1 Indoor Conditions |
| Attribution | |
| Application | Application 1: Installation of masonry units without voids or of
flashing to control the infiltration of soil gas at

| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that masonry units without voids
or flashing will be incorrectly installed, which could lead to discontinuity
between the materials installed to control the infiltration of soil gas in
a floor-on-ground and the dampproofing (which serves as protection against
the infiltration of soil gas) on the exterior of the masonry wall, which could
lead to the infiltration of soil gas, which could lead to negative effects
on the air quality of indoor spaces. This is to limit
the probability of harm to persons.
