Intent 1:
To limit the probability of an inadequate physical
bond between the finish coat of stucco and its substrate, which could
lead to an inadequate resistance to freeze-thaw stresses, which could
lead to delamination.
This is to limit the probability
of:
- precipitation or meltwater ingress, or
- compromised thermal performance of components intended
to provide resistance to heat transfer.
This is to limit the probability of:
- an inadequate control of temperatures of interior spaces
or relative humidity,
- the generation of pollutants from biological growth
or from materials that become unstable on wetting, or
- deterioration, which could lead to compromised integrity
of exterior walls or elements protected by exterior walls.
This is to limit the probability of:
- negative effects on the air quality of indoor spaces,
- the inadequate thermal comfort of persons, and
- contact with moisture.
This is to limit the probability of harm to persons.
