Objective | OH4 Vibration and Deflection Limitation |
Attribution | |
Application | Application 1: Orientation and alignment of OSB qualifying as construction
sheathing, O-1 and O-2 grade OSB, and R-1 grade waferboard used as subflooring,
in wood-frame constructions to which Section 9.23. applies

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of inappropriate orientation or
alignment of joints in OSB and waferboard subflooring, which could lead to
insufficient strength between joists, which could lead to an inability to
resist expected gravity loads, which could lead to excessive movement, vibration
or deflection, which could lead to negative effects on the psychological well-being
of persons. |
