9.15.1.3.(1) | Application | Intent |
OS2 | OP2 | OH1 | OH4 | OS3 |
Objective | OH4 Vibration and Deflection Limitation |
Attribution | |
Application | Application 1: Foundations of detached buildings to which Part 9 applies [see Sentence 1.3.3.3.(1) of Division A for application of Part 9] whose superstructure conforms to
the requirements of the deformation resistance test in CAN/CSA-Z240.2.1, “Structural
Requirements for Mobile Homes.” |

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that the performance of detached
buildings, with respect to longitudinal or torsional stiffness, will fall
significantly below expectations, which could lead to an inability to resist
expected loads transferred from the superstructure to individual foundation
elements. This is to limit the probability of:
For floors and elements supporting floors, this is to limit the
probability of excessive movement, deflection or vibration, which could lead
to negative effects on the psychological well-being of persons.
