Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability that the dynamic structural effect of dynamic forces due to equipment, machinery and other objects that may produce impact will not be taken into account in the design of the supporting structure, which could lead to:

  • the excessive deformation of, or excessive stress in, structural elements, which could lead to damage to the building, and
  • the excessive deflection or excessive vibration of structural elements, which could impede the intended use and occupancy of the building.
