Notes:

Footnote 1

Q₅₀ represents the 1-in-50 probability of the designated wind speed being exceeded in any given year. Geographical areas and their corresponding reference wind velocity pressures are indexed in Table C2 of Division B of the NBC 2015.

Footnote 2

The table is generally intended for non-post-disaster low-rise buildings that have a height from grade to the uppermost roof of 12 m or less, and are located within a build-up area, no less than 120 m away from the boundary between this area and open terrain, including bodies of water upwind of the building.

Return to table footnote 2 referrer

Footnote 3

The table did not take into account the site-specific topographic factor Ct, where Ct = 1.0, except for buildings that are constructed on hills or escarpments with a slope defined in Article 4.1.7.4., Topographic Factor, of the NBC 2015. For buildings constructed on hills and escarpments, anticipated wind pressures may be greater.

Maximum wind pressures for deflection measurements

Test requirements were established based on hourly wind pressures that are associated with designated geographical areas. Q₁₀ represents the 1-in-10 probability of the calculated wind speed being exceeded in any given year. Geographical areas and their corresponding hourly wind pressures are indexed in Table C2 of Division B of the NBC 2015.

Code Compliance via Alternative Solutions

Where a design differs from the acceptable solutions in Division B, then it should be treated as an "alternative solution." A proponent of an alternative solution must demonstrate that the alternative solution addresses the same issues as the applicable acceptable solutions in Division B and their attributed objectives and functional statements. However, because the objectives and functional statements are entirely qualitative, demonstrating compliance with them in isolation is not possible. Therefore, Clause 1.2.1.1.(1)(b) identifies the principle that Division B establishes the quantitative performance targets that alternative solutions must meet. In many cases, these targets are not defined very precisely by the acceptable solutions [...] Nevertheless, Clause 1.2.1.1.(1)(b) makes it clear that an effort must be made to demonstrate that an alternative solution will perform as well as a design that would satisfy the applicable acceptable solutions in Division B—not “well enough” but “as well as.”

National Building Code of Canada, Sentence A-1.2.1.1.(1)(b)

The CCMC has determined that compliance with this provision of the Code has been demonstrated as an Alternative Solution. The evaluation report provides a summary of the basis of CCMC's compliance opinion.

CCMC's code compliance opinions

All CCMC evaluation reports are opinions of code compliance established in accordance with the National Building Code of Canada, Subsection 1.2.1. "Compliance with this Code," which requires compliance to be achieved by:

complying with the applicable acceptable solutions in Division B, or
using an alternative solution that will achieve at least the minimum level of performance required by Division B in the areas defined by the objective and functional statements attributed to the applicable acceptable solutions.

The CCMC assesses compliance with Canadian building, energy and safety codes, and is trusted by over 6,000 regulators across Canada.
