Construction Code
Renovating your house or residential condo and would like to know what standards apply? Go to the Construction Standards page.
In order to ensure the quality of construction work, the Building Act provides for the adoption of a Construction Code covering buildings and equipment for public use, including electrical, petroleum and plumbing facilities as well as those intended for the use, distribution or storage of gas.
The Construction Code applies to designers of plans and specifications (architects, engineers, technologies) and contractors.
This code is adopted chapter by chapter.
