    Toby Smith, Project Manager at Building Knowledge will present on Ontario's Building Code.

    Now that we finally know (hopefully!) how Ontario is choosing to adopt Part 9.36 of the 2020 National Building Code, Toby Smith, a Senior Project manager at Building Knowledge and longtime Energy Advisor, will help you understand what that means for EAs in Ontario. Here is a sampling of questions he'll answer during the upcoming CACEA webinar:

    • What are the timelines for the adoption of the NBC?

    • What Tier is Ontario adopting, and what does that mean?

    • What are the new compliance paths?

    • What tools are available to show compliance (current and upcoming)?

    Please join us for some critical information that will help your current and future customers navigate compliance with the new code.

    This event is open to CACEA members only at no charge.

    This is the third webinar on NRCan's proposed code changes.

    As an EA it is important to be aware of upcoming code changes, how they will impact your work, and how you can get involved in making them better. 

    Alex Bols, Senior Technical Advisor, Canadian Home Builders’ Association (CHBA), and Mark Rosen MEA, Director of Building Science, Building Knowledge Canada  - both of whom are actively involved with the building code standing committees, will provide an update on what’s proposed to be included in the NBC 2025 with a focus on the proposed changes that are currently out for public review  (e.g., the use of NLR vs ACH) as well as the rationale behind these changes and how they will impact EAs - with those working with new construction and existing homes.

    The webinar will also highlight the progress, requirements and timing of the upcoming codes specific to retrofits as well as the operational and embodied carbon.  


    This event is open to CACEA members (free) and non-members ($25+).

    • provide the best pathway towards energy compliance for your clients;
    • speak to building officials using code references;
    • guide the industry through the next stages of the building code.
