We asked last week for your comments on the National Building Code (NBC). There’s a poll at the right hand side of this site, where you can tell us whether you use the NBC and, if not, why not. We’ve had a lot of feedback already.
Such as this comment from Yvan Labbe, who asks a question I have often asked myself: Why should Canadians, in this online day and age, have to pay to access any government regulations whatsoever? Especially ones pertaining to building safely. Here’s how Yvan put it “Yes, I have used the National Building Code. I would use it a lot more often if I did not have to pay for it. As far as I am concerned, it should be available online free of charge so that people can refer to it.
If not free you should be able to pay a bit to get to read different sections or pay so much per day to use it.”. All codes should be available online for free. When you’re trying to get something done all you need is to be able to search it but no, you have to buy a code book for 300.00 to use a couple times before the next one comes out. I have tried calling engineers to ask a question but they can’t be bothered with these little jobs. They are like gate keepers. Don’t want you to know but don’t want to help either. Sometimes things don’t get done right for that reason and governing bodies get bogged down with visiting the same work site several times because work has to be redone.
It must make too much sense to make it available. I mean is selling the books more profitable then the fire inspector or building inspector making several trips to a job site.
Canada has one of the most inefficient work forces in the world. I wonder why when everything gets done twice.
Hello, I agree that any government regulations should not come to a cost to any Canadian citizen. The building codes are there to make homes safe and people safe. Nobody should have to pay for their safety. If the government makes rules and regulations, we should all have access to this written information free of charge for us to view at any given time. I hope this changes as it’s frustrating trying to get this information for building safety. I work in the housing field and don’t think that we should pay for this.
Please assist all of us in getting the government to stop charging us to read THEIR regulations! Obraz diska windows xp dlya virtualbox 7. The NBC is published by the National Research Council of Canada. If you read what it does in the act that created it, you may understand what may play a part in it. The funds that it makes goes back to the NRC to make up to date building models, and fire safety models.
The same goes for the Canadian Association of Standards. It’s easier to this than have tax payers pay out of pocket to fund these entities. It would be nice to see them to allow apprentices access to these via their apprenticeship number at a discounted rate. Re free access to building codes. I am an architect in Scotland. The Scottish Building Standards for Domestic + Non-Domestic Buildings are downloadable for free from the Scottish Government portal and have been since 2009.
Hard copies are charged for. I don’t know that cost as I use the free download, straight into my computer and available for instant reference and print out of any part for ‘hard copy’ file needs. The attitude is that these standards are mandatory for the health + safety of the building users and the public at large and, as such, should be available to all involved in the industry for reference and implementation at low or no cost to ensure those aims of the legislation are achieved. Hope this may be of assistance to those preparing their arguments for easy access. As a student I am only able to access the national building code at school.
Having free access to the Code for the duration of study for students would allow a more thorough understanding of the material. The free dissemination of the NBC will have a positive effect on the building industry (increasing compliance) that would more than compensate the government for the costs of research and publishing. I believe that free access will help promote quality in the trades and alleviate a burden for small to medium sized builders.
These comments I have made over 20 years ago. As taxpayers, we paid for research and maintenance of various boards and research facilities. We do not have access to this information, having paid for it countless times over. When will this gouging of honest, hard working Canadians ever end. Is this what we are reduced to? A constant source of revenue from hundreds of various conduits, to maintain (6) figure salary of such indifferent bureaucrats.
