Public review on code change now OPEN

January 20, 2025 | By Administrator

The Canadian Board for Harmonized Construction Codes (CBHCC) is inviting code users, interested parties, and the broader public to take part in the next public review of a proposed change that addresses overheating in the National Building Code of Canada.

The public review runs from January 20 to February 24, 2025. Those interested in participating in the review can access the proposed change on the CBHCC’s website and provide feedback.

The public review is an opportunity for all Canadians to participate in the code development process. The CBHCC encourages anyone who is interested to review and provide feedback on the change being considered. Following the public review, all comments will be considered by the relevant code development committees, and recommendations on the proposed change will be made to the CBHCC. If approved, the change will be included in the 2025 editions of the National Model Codes.

Feedback on the proposed change helps shape the National Model Codes, which are adopted, with or without modifications, by the provincial or territorial authorities having jurisdiction over the regulation of construction of buildings and houses.
