Universal Washrooms and Shower Rooms
Webinar
Restaurant projects can be tricky because the Ontario Building Code classification isn’t always straightforward. This session walks through how restaurants may fall under Group A, Group E, or other uses, and what that means for design and compliance. You’ll also learn the key mechanical, fire, barrier-free, and rural considerations that affect these buildings, along with common issues that come up during inspections. The goal is to help you review restaurant projects with more clarity and fewer surprises.
