Objective | OS2 Structural Safety |
Attribution | |
Application | Application 1: Installation of blown-in insulation in wood-frame
walls separating heated space from unheated space or the exterior, in new buildings to which Part 9 applies [see Sentence 1.3.3.3.(1) of Division A for application of Part 9]. |

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that the insulation will settle,
which could lead to incomplete coverage by the insulation, which could lead
to excessive heat loss through portions of the building envelope.
This is to limit the probability of excessively low temperatures
of interior surfaces or within assemblies, which could lead to condensation.
This is to limit the probability deterioration, which could lead
to compromised structural integrity of assemblies acting as environmental
separators, which could lead to harm to persons.
