| Application | Application 1: Slopes for profiled metal roof cladding systems specifically
designed for low-slope applications for roofs that have lower slopes than
the minimum slopes required by Table 9.26.3.1., on 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 of an insufficient slope of the
roof or construction that serves as a roof, which could lead to inadequate
drainage or water pooling, which could lead to:
This is to limit the probability of precipitation
or meltwater ingress, which could lead to further deterioration, which could
lead to the structural failure of roofs or assemblies protected by roofs,
which could lead to harm to persons.
Intent 2: To supersede the application of Sentence 9.26.3.1.(1) to
allow lower slopes where roofing material specifically designed for lower
slopes will be used. |
