Intent 1:

To limit the probability that the base coat will extract and absorb water from a relatively thin finish coat of stucco, which could lead to negative effects on curing of the finish coat, which could lead to an inadequate resistance to abrasion or 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.
