How to Design for Special Events under the Ontario Building Code

TIME: 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM

Description

In respect of current climate action initiatives, we need to evaluate the use of our buildings. Can we pivot single-purpose buildings into buildings that are adaptable? The course will help you navigate designing events within buildings that may or may not have been constructed for this purpose (e.g., we've all attended a wedding in a barn). We will discuss options to consider an event temporary or permanent (through a change of use evaluation). 

Learning Objectives

  1. Understand the construction requirements of the OBC and how they relate to occupancy risks.
  2. Understanding "temporary" from a Building Code perspective
  3. Introduction to the change of use requirements
  4. How to utilize other documents and resources
