Back9.23.15.3.(1)

ATTRIBUTION:

Functional Statement:

F20

To support and withstand expected loads and forces.

F22

To limit movement under expected loads and forces.

Objective:

OS2.1, OS2.3, OS2.5, OS2.3, OS2.5

 

APPLICATION:

Orientation of plywood panels used for roof sheathing, in wood-frame constructions to which Section 9.23. applies [see Sentence 9.23.1.1.(1) for application of Section 9.23.].

INTENT:

To limit the probability of inadequate strength, which could lead to an inability to resist expected gravity and lateral loads, which could lead to excessive deflection or damage to roofing.
This is to limit the probability of compromised structural integrity, which could lead to:
  • the structural collapse of wood-frame construction, or
  • precipitation ingress, which could lead to deterioration, which could lead to further compromised structural integrity of the roof.
This is to limit the probability of harm to persons.

Objective:

OH1.1, OH1.2, OH1.3

 

APPLICATION:

Orientation of plywood panels used for roof sheathing, in wood-frame constructions to which Section 9.23. applies [see Sentence 9.23.1.1.(1) for application of Section 9.23.].

INTENT:

To limit the probability of inadequate strength, which could lead to an inability to resist expected gravity and lateral loads, which could lead to excessive deflection or damage to roofing.
Where wood-frame construction supports or is part of an environmental separator, this is to limit the probability of the displacement or failure of required environmental separation elements, which could lead to:
  • precipitation ingress, or
  • compromised thermal performance of components intended to resist heat transfer.
This is to limit the probability of:
  • an inadequate control of temperatures of interior spaces or water accumulation,
  • the generation of pollutants from biological growth or from materials that become unstable on wetting, or
  • deterioration, which could lead to further compromised integrity of environmental separators.
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.
