| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of inadequate strength, which could
lead to an inability to resist expected gravity and lateral loads, which could
lead to excessive deflection or damage to roofing. Where
assemblies are required to provide fire resistance, this is to limit the probability
of compromised fire resistance of the assembly, which could lead to harm to
persons.
