Objective

OP2 Structural Sufficiency of the Building

Attribution

Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability of inadequate anchorage, which could lead to the displacement of wood-frame roof systems under wind-uplift loads.

This is to limit the probability of compromised structural integrity, which could lead to:

  • structural failure of wood-frame roof systems, or
  • the excessive deformation, displacement or failure of required environmental separation elements, which could lead to deterioration, which could lead to further compromised structural integrity.

This is to limit the probability of damage to the building.
