Change of Use in New Buildings

When a building is under five years old, even small shifts in use can trigger important Ontario Building Code requirements. This session walks you through how to evaluate those changes with confidence. You will learn the common code triggers, how to determine the right compliance pathway, and how to apply the rules consistently so nothing gets missed. The goal is to help you handle these “young but changing” projects with clarity and accuracy.
