Intent 1:
To limit the probability that the values used for
the design of the cladding and secondary structural members will be
excessively low based on a value obtained from a test, which could
lead to:
- the excessive deformation of, or excessive stress in,
structural elements, which could lead to damage to the building, or
- the excessive deflection or excessive vibration of structural
elements, which could impede the intended use and occupancy of the
building.
