Intent 1:
To limit the probability that there will be no means
to access the supplemental energy dissipation devices, which could
lead to an inability to maintain or replace them, which could lead
to premature degradation, corrosion or fatigue, which could lead
to:
- the excessive deformation of, or excessive stress in,
the structural elements, which could lead to damage to the building,
or
- the excessive deformation of, or excessive stress in,
the building structure, which could lead to damage to the building,
which could impede the intended use and occupancy of the building.
