Introduction

Figure.1: An axonometric of the three chosen buildings to be studied

The mixed-use residential complex, Conjuguer, is located on the intersecting streets of Frood, Evergreen, College, and MacKenzie in Sudbury, Ontario. The project aims to revitalize and bring social, and physical connection to the periphery of Downtown Sudbury and the residential neighbourhood. The concept of conjugating focuses on reuniting elements within and around the site, along with its users and the community. The program consists of mixed demographics for the residential units, communal indoor and outdoor spaces, and public programs, like the market, clinic, laundromat, and more. The three types of buildings that will be analyzed are the underground parking garage, a residential building for seniors, and a mixed-use residential and commercial building. The project is reviewed in comparison to the Ontario Building Code (OBC) to see if the buildings do or do not comply with the safety regulations.

This building code analysis report follows the Ontario Building Code version 2012 1 and 2017 2.

Format of the Report The eight parts of the report will review the use, safety, and accessibility of the three buildings being analyzed. Along with the explanations and investigations of the building code will be done through diagrams, tables, and screenshots of the Ontario Building Code itself. At the end of Part A.4 in the report, the buildings are separately studied through Part 3 and Part 9 based on their classification. Refer to Table of Contents for an overview of all the parts that are analyzed from the building code. All the tables, screenshots, diagrams, and matrices will be found in the text and the report Appendix.

The report follows the same content naming conventions as the Ontario Building Code in combination with the text hierarchy. All the italicized content that is in the report is referencing an article from the building code or somewhere else in the report. For example, Article 3.8.3.8, Clause 1.1.2.2 1) (b), G.2 - Barrier-free entrances.

For example, Part Section Article Sentence Clause …

Part A: Building Classification A.1 - Major occupancy(s) 3.5.1.2 3.5.1.2. 3) 3.5.1.2. 3)(a) …

Underground Parking Garage The two storeys below grade garage provides parking for all residents, workers, and visitors to the project site. On the first lower level is a storage warehouse that is connected to the market for deliveries, shipments, and only accessible to market employees. The current pedestrian access to the parking garage is through the vertical stair and elevator cores located in three of the project buildings. The vehicular access to the underground parking is from MacKenzie Street. There are 249 parking spots.

Residential Building for Seniors The senior’s residence is located on the north-west side of the site and has up to 3 storeys of single bedroom apartments. There is a large and growing population of seniors that are able to live in proximity to the various amenities the project provides. The senior’s building is split into two volumes that are connected by a circulation corridor.

Mixed-use commercial and residential building The commercial / residential building marks the frontage on the south side of the site along Evergreen street. The building was separated into two buildings, where the right portion is what will be analyzed. The program consists of a daycare, the residential lobby, an open air space, and a café on the ground floor. As well as, residences of one storey and two storeys units with lounges on the second floor that open up to the third floor.

Part A: Building Classification A.1 - Major occupancy(s) Major Occupancy for each building was found in Article 3.1.2.1 in Appendix A and in the Table 3.1.2.1. The major occupancy for the parking is considered Group F, Division 3. (fig.2) The major occupancy for the senior residence is considered Group C. (fig.3) The major occupancies for the Commercial/Residential building are considered to be Group A, Division 2 because of the daycare Group A, Division 4 for the open air market (the worst case type of occupancy was taken into consideration in terms of the space hosting events like festivals and determined that the most restrictive group for the open area is A4), Group C because of the residential apartments, and Group E for the café. (fig.4)

Parking: Group F3 Senior Residence: Group C Commercial/Residential: Group A2, A4, C, E

A.2 - Building area 10

The building area of the parking garage is equal to 6083 m2 (See fig.5 below), for the senior residence (See fig.6 below), it is equal to 331 m2, and the commercial/residential building, to 716 m2 (See fig.7 below).

Parking: 6083 m2 Senior Residence: 331 m2 Commercial/Residential: 716 m2

Figure.5: Area of storage garage building

Figure.6: Area of senior building

Figure.7: Area of Commercial / Residential building

12

A.3 - Building Height The building height of the parking garage is not applicable since it is contained below grade. As for the senior residence the height is equal to 3 storeys. The commercial/residential building also has a height of 3 storeys.

Parking: n/a Senior Residence: 3 storeys Commercial/Residential: 3 storeys A.4 - Applicable Part of Division B Parking The parking garage is an applicable part 3 of Division B, based on Clause 1.1.2.2 1) (b). Because its building area is equal to 6083m2, it exceeds 600m2 in building area and therefore is classified as Group F, Division 3.

Senior Residence building Using the Clause 1.1.2.4 1) (a), 1.1.2.4 1) (b) and Sub-Clause 1.1.2.4 1) (c) i), the senior residence is an applicable part 9 of Division B because it is a building of only 3 storeys with a building area of less than 600m2 of residential occupancy (Group C).

Commercial / Residential building Finally, following again the Clause 1.1.2.2 1) (b), the commercial/residential building is applicable to part 3 of Division B since it has a major occupancy of Group A and its area (716m2) exceeds 600m2.

Parking: Part 3 Senior Residence: Part 9 Commercial/Residential: Part 3

Refer to Part I - (Part 9) for the Senior’s Residence. (p.96) A.5 - Number of Streets/firefighter access Parking According to the Sentence 3.2.2.10. 1), every building should face at least one street.

The parking garage is located underground, since the building does not have any exposed building faces above grade therefore by definition it is not to be exposed to any streets for firefighter access. The main entrance for the parking garage is currently the vehicular ramp and the principal pedestrian entrance is the vertical elevator and stair core connecting to the social

13

residence. According to Article 3.2.5.4, a fire access route is required for the firefighters to quickly enter, as there is currently no direct pedestrian route from the street, one will have to be added to comply.

Commercial / Residential building According to Sentence 3.2.2.10 3), the commercial residential building is currently exposed to 2 streets since more than 50% of the building is exposed to Evergreen Street and therefore complies with Sentence 3.2.2.10. 1) (fig.9).

Figure.9: Exposure of the Commercial / Residential building to the streets

Parking: 0 streets Commercial/Residential: 2 streets A.6 - Separate buildings and firewall Parking The underground parking is classified as a separate building based on the Article 3.2.1.2. This allows an underground storage garage to be classified as a separate building.

Commercial / Residential building The commercial residential building is considered as one building based on the Article 3.1.10.3.

Parking: Storage garage considered as separate building Commercial/Residential: Only one building

14

A.7 - Building classification Parking The storage garage has a major occupancy of F3 follows 3.2.5.2 & 3.2.1.2, 3.2.1.4 instead of following 3.2.2.20@3.2.2.83 (specifically 3.2.2.75). In 3.2.1.2, the parking garage requires the exterior walls of the building storeys above to be recessed by 2 m due to the combustible mass timber construction.

Commercial / Residential building The commercial and residential building has a major occupancy of A2, A4, C, and E. According to the Articles 3.2.2.20@3.2.2.83 and the number of occupants, the most restrictive article is the Article 3.2.2.24 for the first floor of this building. The second and third floors, the major occupancy is considered to be Group C and the most restrictive is Article 3.2.2.48.

Parking:

Major occupancy(s) : F3 Most restrictive = 3.2.1.2

Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: 2nd floor: 3rd floor:

Major occupancy(s) : A2, A4, C, and E Most restrictive = 3.2.1.24 Major occupancy(s) : C Most restrictive = 3.2.2.48 Major occupancy(s) : C Most restrictive = 3.2.2.48

A.8 - Construction and sprinklers Parking The storage garage will have both floors sprinklered according to Clause 3.2.1.2. 2) (a) and Clause 3.2.1.5. 1)(a) that states that every basement shall be sprinklered.

Commercial / Residential building The commercial/residential building, the first floor is required to be sprinklered and noncombustible because of Article 3.2.2.24 since there is a major occupancy of A2; the second floor and third floor are required to be sprinklered and can be either or combustible and noncombustible based on Article 3.2.2.48 for the residential Group C occupancy Parking: Sprinklered / non-combustible Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: Sprinklered / non-combustible 2nd floor: Sprinklered / Combustible 3rd floor: Sprinklered / Combustible

15

A.9-A.11 - Floor, Mezzanines, and loadbearing elements fire-resistance Parking According to the Clause 3.2.1.2. 1) (a), the floor P1 and P2 of the storage garage will follow the same rules in terms of fire resistance. The floors, mezzanines, load-bearing walls, and the columns will need 2 hours of fire resistance, based on the Clause 3.2.1.2. 1)(b).

Commercial / Residential building On the first floor of the commercial residential building, a minimum fire-resistance rating of an hour is required for the floor, mezzanine, and load-bearing walls according to Sentence 3.2.2.24.

2).

On the second floor and third floor, a minimum fire-resistance rating of 45 minutes is required for the floor, mezzanine, and load-bearing walls according to Sentence 3.2.2.48. 2).

Parking: 2h Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: 2nd floor: 3rd floor:

1h 45 min 45 min

A.12 - Sprinkler system Parking According to the Clause 3.2.1.5. 1)(a) that states that every basement shall be sprinklered, both floors of the parking require sprinklers.

Commercial / Residential building The mixed-use commercial building requires sprinklers for the entire building following Article 3.2.2.24 for the first floor, Article 3.2.2.48 for the second and third floors.

Parking: Entire Building Sprinklered Commercial/Residential: Entire Building Sprinklered A.13 - Construction requirements and strategy Parking The parking will be required to be built with non-combustible materials following the Clause 3.2.1.2. 1)(b) since it is a storage garage considered as a separate building.

Commercial / Residential building

16

Sentence 3.2.2.24. 2) requires non-combustible materials for the first floor of the commercial residential building. However, for the purpose of sustainability and material property value the building will try to assimilate combustible material in the structure of its first floor with the analysis of similar scenario case studies. Furthermore, the document of the OBC does not take account of the structural integrity properties of mass timber construction under fire. It has been proven that the resiliency of mass timber is allowed by its thickness and that its members can maintain structural integrity through the charring of the outer layer of the wood, slowing the combustion. 3 The second and third floor of the commercial/residential building can use combustible or noncombustible construction material according to Sentence 3.2.2.48. 2).

Parking: Non-combustible required / Will be Non-combustible Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: Non-combustible required / Might be combustible 2nd floor: Combustible permitted / Will be combustible 3rd floor: Combustible permitted / Will be combustible A.14 - High-Building requirements Parking The building height of the storage parking is by definition non-applicable therefore, the additional building height requirements do not apply.

Commercial / Residential building Commercial/Residential building does not exceed 18 m high between grade and floor level of the top storey, therefore the additional requirements for high buildings do not apply according to the sub-clauses 3.2.6.1. 1)(a)(i) and 3.2.6.1. 1)(a)(ii) (fig.10).

Parking: Not Applicable Commercial/Residential: Not a high-building

Figure.10: The Article 3.2.6.1 additional requirements for high buildings (OBC, 2012)

A.15 - Fire alarm system Parking According to Clause 3.2.4.1. 2)(h), both floors will need a fire alarm system due to having more than 75 occupants and being a low hazard industrial occupancy building. Also, because the storage garage does not comply with Article 3.2.2.83 because the article requires the building to have no fire-resistance rating, according to 3.2.4.1. 5), a fire alarm system is required. The fire alarm can be single or two stage systems according to Clause 3.2.4.3. 1)(e) for parking.

Commercial / Residential building The commercial and residential building does not require a fire alarm on the first, second, and third floor due to not being on the required list on the Article 3.2.4.1.

Parking: Fire Alarm Required (single stage or two stage) Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: Fire Alarm Not required 2nd floor: Fire Alarm Not required 3rd floor: Fire Alarm Not required

18

Part B: Occupant Loads B.1 - Occupant load – number of person for which the building is designed In conjunction with the Sub-clause 3.1.17.1. 1) c)(i), the number of occupants per area will follow the Table 3.1.17.1.

Parking On the floor P1, Assuming every spot is filled with 4-seat cars with 60 parking spaces, that equates to 300 people for the first floor (fig.11).

- Parking storage: 4 x 60 = 240 occupants The intended number of occupants in the grocery storage is 5 people.

- Grocery storage: 5 occupants Therefore, using the method from B.1 that looks at how many people the space is designed for, the occupant load of the first floor (P1) will be 245 occupants.

Figure.11: Number of parking spaces in P1 using the B.1 method

On the floor P2, Assuming every spot is filled with 4-seat cars and there are 189 parking spaces provided, that equates to 300 people for the first floor (fig.12).

- Parking storage: 4 x 189 = 756 occupants Therefore, using the method from B.1 looking at how many people the space was designed for, the occupant load of the second floor (P2) will be 756 occupants.

19

Figure.12: Number of parking spaces in P2 using the B.1 method

Parking: 1st floor: 2nd floor:

245 occupants 756 occupants

Commercial / Residential building On the 1st floor For the daycare based on the number of seats, the two offices and the reception, the space presumably can host 20 people (fig.13).

20

Figure.13: The ground floor daycare occupant load found using the B1 method

For the Lobby, also based on the number of seats the space can host 4 people (fig.14).

Figure.14: The floor 1 lobby occupant load found using the B1 method

21

For the open air space, depending on the temporary event, the space is designed to host up to 300 people.

Finally, for the café, based on the number of fixed seats (7) and the number of moveable chairs (2) and the staff (2), the space can host 11 people (fig.15).

Figure.15: Ground level Open air area and cafe occupant load found using the B1 method

Therefore, using the method from B.1 that looks at how many people the space is designed for, the total occupant load of the first floor will be 335 occupants.

On the 2nd floor There are two types of residences on the second floor: one Type 1 and five Type 2. Type 1 residences have 1 bedroom and Type 2 residences have 3 bedrooms that are lofted on the third floor. There is also a lounge in between the residences.

According to Clause 3.1.17.1. 1)(b) the number of occupants for dwelling units must be calculated by counting 2 people per number of sleeping rooms.

Therefore, for Type 1 residences, there are 2 occupants and Type 2 are non-applicable on this floor according to Clause 3.1.17.1. 1)(b) since the sleeping rooms are located on the third floor.

22

Figure.16: Floor 1 lounge occupant load found using the B1 method

The lounge was designed to host 6 people based on the number of seats provided (fig.16).

Therefore, using the method from B.1 the occupant load of the first floor will be 8 occupants.

On the 3rd floor On this floor, there is one lounge and multiple sleeping rooms.

According to Clause 3.1.17.1. 1)(b), the residences account for 30 occupants and the lounge was designed to host 6 people (fig.16).

Therefore, using method B.1, the occupant load will be of 36 occupants.

Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: 2nd floor: 3rd floor:

285 occupants 8 occupants 36 occupants

B.2 - Occupant load – area and occupancy The occupant loads found in B.2 were based on the area of the space in combination to the area per person found in Table 3.1.17.1 and Clause 3.1.17.1. 1)(b) for the dwelling units.

Parking On the floor P1 According to Table 3.1.17.1, in a storage garage, 1 occupant uses the space every 49 m2 and in a storage room (warehouse) every 28 m2.

23

Therefore, knowing that on the first floor the area occupied by the storage garage is equal to 3010 m2 and that the grocery store storage occupies 369 m2. The number of occupant for each space will be - Parking garage: 3010 / 46 = 66 occupants - Grocery storage: 369 / 28 = 13 occupants On the floor P2 The area of this floor is equal to 6083m2, therefore: - Parking garage: 6083/46 = 133 occupants Commercial / Residential building On the 1st floor The first floor contains 94 occupants for the daycare (A2), 28 people for the lobby (C), 802 for the open air (A4), and 28 occupants for the café (E).

On the 2nd floor The second floor lounge counts for 9 people with an area of 32m2, and the residential units are not applicable in this case as mentioned above using Clause 3.1.17.1. 1)(b).

On the 3rd floor The third floor also counts for 9 occupants for the lounge.

Parking: 1st floor: 79 occupants 2nd floor: 133 occupants Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: 952 occupants 2nd floor: 9 occupants 3rd floor: 9 occupants B.3 - Final occupant load Parking The total building occupant load for the parking garage uses the B.2 Occupant Loads for a total of 79 occupants on the first floor and 133 occupants on the second floor. The B.2 Occupant Loads were chosen over the total for B.1 due to the larger number of people the results account for.

In total, there will be 212 occupants in this building.

Commercial / Residential building All parts of each floor area were calculated to find the final occupant load of the commercial / residential building to be 433 people. The occupant loads found in B.2 were determined more reasonable for the daycare, first-floor lobby, and the residential lounge on the upper floors.

Parking: 212 occupants Commercial/Residential: 459 occupants

24

Part C : Safety, means of egress and exits C.1 - Required exits Parking According to the Sentence 3.4.2.1 1) every floor area intended for an occupancy needs to provide at least two exits. The storage garage provides based on the Clause 3.4.1.4 1)(i) two interior stairway exits and therefore complies with the Sentence 3.4.2.1 1).

Commercial / Residential The floor area of each commercial/residential building needs two exits as required by Sentence 3.4.2.1 1). The floor areas that do not currently comply with Sentence 3.4.2.1 1) are the first-floor café and the whole third floor with only one exit. The rest of the building’s floor area complies with having two exits.

On the 1st floor The daycare and the lobby currently have two exterior doors with horizontal access according to Clause 3.4.1.4 1)(a). The open-air area is non-applicable as it is completely exterior. The café currently has one exterior doorway not complying with the Clause 3.4.1.4 1)(a) that requires two exits.

On the 2nd floor The second-floor residential units and lounge have two interior stairways that provide vertical access and comply with Clause 3.4.1.4 1)(i).

On the 3rd floor The residential units and lounge have one interior stairway on the third floor that does not comply with Clause 3.4.1.4 1)(i) that requires two exits.

Parking: 2 exits required / (interior stairways) Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: 2 exits required 2nd floor: 2 exits required 3rd floor: 2 exits required C.2 - Distance between exits Parking On the floor P1 The parking area does not have a public corridor. Therefore, using Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b) the least distance between two required exits from a floor area shall be one half of the maximum diagonal dimension of the floor area, but not less than 9 m for all other floor areas. Half of the diagonal and 25

therefore the least distance of the floor area P1 is equal to 60.5 m however the travel distance of smoke between the two exits is equal to 24 m based on Sentence 3.4.2.3 3). In consequence, the two exits do not comply with Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b) and another exit will be placed (fig.17).

Figure.17: The required smoke travel distance between exits for P1

On the floor P2 This floor area does not have a public corridor either. According to Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b) half of the diagonal and therefore the least distance of the floor area P1 is equal to 65.5 m. Based on the same clause, the travel distance of smoke needs to be higher than the least distance of the floor are (here 65.5). However, the travel distance of smoke between the two exits is equal to 24 m based on Sentence 3.4.2.3 3). In consequence, the two exits do not comply with Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b) and another exit will be placed (fig.18).

26

Figure.18: The required smoke travel distance between exits for P2

Commercial / Residential Following the Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b), the commercial/residential building has a public corridor and the rest of the building will have to comply with the least distance required.

On the 1st floor The first floor of the commercial/residential building does not have a public corridor in any of the floor areas based on the definition found in Article 1.4.1.2 found in the Appendix. The daycare does not have a public corridor but has a smoke travel distance of 9.8 m with the minimum distance without a public corridor of 9 m, therefore it complies with Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b) (fig.19).

27

Figure.19: The required smoke travel distance between exits for Floor 1- Daycare

It was calculated that the lobby requires a limited distance of 7 m and currently has a smoke travel distance of 12 m between exits therefore it complies with Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b) (fig.20).

Figure. 20: The required smoke travel distance between exits for Floor 1- Lobby

The café does not comply with Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b) as the least distance cannot be calculated with only one exit.

On the 2nd floor The second floor residential units and lounge have a public corridor with a 30 m travel distance of smoke that surpasses the limited distance of 9 m and half of the diagonal of the floor area of 26.85 m, which complies with Clause 3.4.2.3 1)(b) (fig.21).

28

Figure. 21: The required smoke travel distance between exits for Floor 2

On the 3rd floor The residential units and lounge on the third floor does not have a floor area to have either a public corridor, follow the limited distance, or to have two exits with a fire separation required in Clause 3.4.1.4 1)(i). Therefore, the third floor does not comply, but an exterior pathway will be implemented (fig.22).

Figure. 22: The required smoke travel distance between exits for Floor 3

Parking: 2 exits required / (interior stairways) Commercial/Residential: 1st floor: 2 exits required 2nd floor: 2 exits required 3rd floor: 2 exits required C.3 - Travel distance to exits Parking Based on Clause 3.4.2.5 1)(c) and because the building is sprinklered and has an occupancy other than high hazard industrial occupancy, the maximum travel distance from any point of the floor area to at least one exit needs to be 45 m (fig. 23).

29

Figure.23: The location of exits found in Article 3.4.2.5 (OBC online, 2017)

However, based on the plan of floor P1 and floor P2 (fig.24) the travel distance from the farthest point of their floor area exceeds 45 m and therefore do not comply with Clause 3.4.2.5. 1)(c).

30

Figure. 24: The longest travel distance on both lower levels of the parking

Commercial / Residential Again based on Clause 3.4.2.5 1)(c) and because the building is sprinklered and has an occupancy other than high hazard industrial occupancy, the maximum travel distance from any point of the floor area to at least one exit needs to be 45 m.

On the 1st floor

31

The daycare, lobby and café have a travel distance of less than 45 m to their respective exit and therefore complies with Clause 3.4.2.5. 1)(c) (fig. 25 & 26).

Figure. 25: Longest travel distance for both the daycare and lobby

32

Figure. 26: The longest travel distance in the café

On the 2nd floor The lounge and the farthest unit located to an exit have both a travel distance of less than 45 m to an exit and therefore complies with Clause 3.4.2.5. 1)(c) (fig. 27).

On the 3rd floor The lounge again complies with Clause 3.4.2.5. 1)(c). However, since the units do not have access to an exit on this floor, they do not comply with Clause 3.4.2.5. 1)(c). Therefore, an exterior pathway and new exit will be added to comply (fig.28)

33

Figure. 28: Longest travel distance along Floor 3 of the Commercial / Residential building

Parking: Max. travel distance to at least 1 exit : 45 m Commercial/Residential: Max. travel distance to at least 1 exit : 45 m C.4 - Exit width Parking According to Clause 3.4.3.2. 7)(d), a minimum aggregate width of 900 mm is required for the exit stairs. The current aggregate width for the first and second lower floors of parking is 1000 mm, and therefore means the parking exit widths comply. (fig.29)

34

Figure. 29: The current and required dimensions for the P1 exits

Commercial / Residential Again based on Clause 3.4.3.2. 1)(a) and 3.4.3.2. 7)(b) each floor area was analyzed to determine if they do or do not comply with the minimum width for the exit.

On the 1st floor The daycare (A2), lobby (C) and café (E) with an occupant load of 109, complies with their respective exit doorway width of 790 mm based on the Sentence 3.4.3.2. 7)(fig. 30). This does not include the open air area due to it being completely exterior.

35

Figure.30: The current and required dimensions for the Floor 1- Commercial / Residential exits

36

On the 2nd floor The dwelling units (C) and the lounge (C) of the second floor with 11 occupants do not comply with Clause 3.4.3.2. 1)(a) as the calculated required minimum width of the exit stairs is 1100 mm (fig. 31).

Figure.31: The current and required dimensions for the Floor 2- Commercial / Residential exits

On the 3rd floor The dwelling units (C) and the lounge (C) of the third floor with 11 occupants have exits of the same dimension as the second floor therefore their exits do not comply with Clause 3.4.3.2. 7)(a) and Clause 3.4.3.2. 7)(b), as the required minimum width for the exit stairs is 1100 mm.

C.5 - Location of exits Parking For the parking building, on each floor area one exit through a lobby is permitted if that exit complies with Sentence 3.4.4.2 2) (fig.32). In our parking building, one exit leads directly to the outside on the ground floor while the other leads to a sprinklered lobby on the ground floor which has a path of travel to an exit doorway not more than 15 m. Also, the residential units on that floor

37

open directly to this sprinklered lobby, therefore the parking building complies with Sentence 3.4.4.2 2) (fig.32).

Figure.32: The Article 3.4.4.2 describing exits through lobbies (OBC online, 2017)

38

Commercial / Residential All the exits on the first floor of the commercial / residential building lead directly to the outside while the second floor has one exit leading directly to the outside while the other leads to a lobby in conformity with the requirements of Sentence 3.4.4.2 2) (fig. 32).

C.6 - Integrity of exits Parking The parking garage has no exit with openings therefore this part is non-applicable.

Commercial / Residential On the first floor, all the floor area exits have openings that comply with Clause 3.4.4.4. 1)(d) since they are all exit doorways (fig. 33). The commercial/residential building has no exit with openings on the second and third floor, and therefore does not need to follow specific requirements.

Figure.33: The Article 3.4.4.4 on the integrity of exits (OBC online)

C.7 - Stairs and landings Parking Based on Article 3.4.6.2, 3.4.6.3, Sentence 3.4.6.4 1), 3.4.6.8 1) and 3.4.6.8 2) the exits stairs of both floors of the parking building complies in terms maximum vertical rise for flight of stairs, number and dimension of landings and size of treads and risers (See Table. 1 below).

The ramp slope calculation is not applicable for both the parking and the commercial/residential building since they have no ramps.

C.9 - Suites Parking This section is not applicable for the parking building since there are no suites in this building.

Commercial / Residential In the commercial / residential building on the first floor there is one individual store: the café (E) and on the second floor there are 1 one-storey dwelling unit suite and 5 individual two-storey dwelling units suites.

C.10 - Suite means of egress Parking The storage garage does not have any suites and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential This section is not applicable for the first floor as there are no suites. Each suite in a floor area that contains more than one suite shall have a doorway into a public corridor according to Clause 3.3.1.3. 8)(b)(i). On the second floor dwelling units have doorways into the public corridor and therefore complies with Clause 3.3.1.3. 8)(b)(i) and Clause 3.3.1.3. 9). The third floor does not comply as the dwelling units does not have any means of egress leading to an exit, a door into a public corridor, or to an exterior passageway. Therefore, a door into an exterior pathway will be added on the third floor to comply with Clause 3.3.1.3. 8)(b)(i) (fig.34).

Figure.34: The implementation of a new means of egress for Floor 3 - Commercial / Residential building

41

C.11 - Suite or room requiring a min. 2 egress doorways Parking The first floor of the parking building has one storage warehouse (F3) needing 2 egress doorways according to the Sub-Clause 3.3.1.5 1)(d)(i) because the building is sprinklered and the travel distance to the egress doorway is longer than 25 m. (fig.35) And the maximum travel distance to an exit shall be of 45 m according to the Clause 3.4.2.5 1)(c).

Figure.35: The Article 3.3.1.5 on egress doorways for dwelling units (OBC, 2012)

Commercial / Residential Since the building is sprinklered and the first floor areas have a maximum travel distance to an egress doorway that is no longer than 25 m (fig.#), according to the Sub-Clause 3.3.1.5 1)(d)(i).

The daycare, lobby, and café rooms do not need a second means of egress. On the second and third floor, the lounges have two means of egress and the dwelling units do not require two egress doorways according to the Sentence 3.3.1.5 1).

C.12 - Egress from one storey dwelling units Parking The storage garage does not have any egress from one storey dwelling units and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential According to Article 3.3.4.4, the second floor one storey dwelling unit (Type 1), complies as it has an egress to a public corridor on the same storey.

42

C.13 - Egress from multiple storey dwelling units Parking The storage garage does not have any egress from multiple storey dwelling units and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential According to Article 3.3.4.4, the second floor multiple storey dwelling units (Type 2), must have an exit/egress door to access an exit from both the upper and lower storey. However, the units do not comply according to Sentence 3.3.4.4. 2), as there is currently only one exit door. Therefore, an exit will need to be added to the upper storey of the dwelling units to comply with Sentence 3.3.4.4. 2)(fig. 36). Please refer to C.10 - Suite means of egress above for proposal.

Figure.36: The Article 3.3.4.4 on the egress from dwelling units (OBC online, 2017)

C.14 - Means of egress for roofs intended for occupancy Parking The underground parking garage does not have any roofs intended for occupancy and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential The commercial/residential building does not have any roofs intended for occupancy and therefore this section is not applicable.

43

C.15 - Corridor width & dead-end Parking The underground parking garage does not have any corridors with dead-ends and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential According to the Clause 3.4.3.2. 7)(a), the width of the public corridor on the second floor complies with the minimum width of 1100 m. However, there is a dead end public corridor of 10 m which does not comply with the dead-end public corridor permitted maximum length of 6 m based on the Sentence 3.3.1.9. 9). Therefore, the residential corridor will need to be rearranged to allow for the dead-end to have a smaller length from the exit to the unit entrance (fig.37).

Figure.37: The corridor width & dead-end on Floor 2 - Commercial / Residential building

44

C.16 - Direction of door swing Parking According to Article 3.4.6.12. 1)(a), every exit door needs to swing in the direction of the exit travel (fig. 38).

Figure.38: The Article 3.4.6.12 on the required direction of door swing (OBC online, 2017)

The underground parking garage location of the door swing does not open in the direction of the exit travel of the floor area. Therefore, the door swing direction to the exit stairs will need to be changed for both floors, according to Article 3.4.6.12. 1)(a) (fig. 39). The occupant load served for P1 is 133 and for P2 is 79.

45

Figure.39: The direction of the door swing for exit in the Parking building

46

Commercial / Residential According to the Article 3.4.6.12. 1)(a), the location of the door opening must be in the direction of travel, which does not comply with the exit stairs of Floor 2 serving the floor area with 11 occupants. The rest of the building complies with the Article 3.4.6.12. 1)(a), of opening in the direction of exit travel (fig. 40).

Based on the results found on Tables 9 & 10 above, the South and North façade of the Commercial / residential building will be constructed with combustible structural members and combustible cladding material.

F.4 - Protection of structural members Parking The underground parking garage does not have any exposing building face and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential The Article 3.2.3.9 determines whether the structural members need extra fire protection by either a fire-resistance rating, extra cladding, or none at all. The commercial / residential building complies with Sentence 3.2.3.9. 2), since the smallest limiting distance (6 m) of the building is bigger than 3 m that the structural members are placed outside and therefore do not require fire protection (fig.58).

Figure.58: The Article 3.2.3.9 on the protection of structural members (OBC, 2012)

F.5 - Wall exposed to another wall Parking

76

The underground parking garage does not have any exposing building face and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential The commercial / residential building does not have any walls exposed to other walls and therefore this section is not applicable. All the building’s window openings are at 180 degrees or more from one another, which corresponds to Sentence 3.2.3.14. 1) explaining that a wall exposed to another wall has their exterior faces not less than 135 degrees from one another (fig.59).

Figure.59: The Article 3.2.3.14 on the wall exposure to another wall for fire and smoke safety (OBC, 2012)

F.6 - Window areas - additional requirements Parking The underground parking garage does not have any exposing building face and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential In conformity with the Sentence 3.7.2.1 1) the commercial / residential exposing building faces that serves a dwelling units room listed as: sleeping room, living room, dining room or combination of them needs to be provided with windows having areas conforming to Part 9.

Following the Sentence 9.7.2.3 1) and Table 9.7.2.3 of the building code (fig.60), the Tables 12 & 13 were created for the South and North façade of the building.

77

Part G : Barrier-free Design G.1 - Barrier-free application Parking Barrier-free design applies to the entire parking building (F3) according to Article 3.8.1.1 (fig. 62).

Commercial / Residential Barrier-free design applies to the entire commercial / residential building (A2, A4, C, E), according to Article 3.8.1.1 (fig. 62).

Figure.62: The Article 3.8.1.1 on if barrier-free application is required (OBC, 2012)

G.2 - Barrier-free entrances Parking According to Sentence 3.8.1.2 1) and Table 3.8.1.2 because the parking building has 2 pedestrian entrances, it is required that at least one of them is barrier-free (see fig.63 below).

81

Figure.63: The Article 3.8.1.2 determines the number of barrier-free entrances required (OBC, 2012)

Sentence 3.8.3.3 1) requires that every barrier-free entrance shall have a clear width of not less than 860 mm when the door is in the open position. Looking at figure 64, the width of the principal entrance is larger than 860 mm and therefore complies with Sentence 3.8.1.2. 1).

82

Figure.64: The dimension for barrier-free entrance

Commercial / Residential According to the Sentence 3.8.1.2 1) and the Table 3.8.1.2 because the Commercial / Residential building has a total of 6 pedestrian entrances, it is required that not less than 50 of them are barrier-free (fig.65). Which means that a minimum of 3 of them needs to be barrier free and that one of them needs to be a main entrance. Based on figure 65, all the entrances to each major occupation are barrier-free according to Sentence 3.8.3.3 1). Therefore, the pedestrian entrances of the building complies with Sentence 3.8.1.2 1).

83

Figure.65: The dimension for barrier-free entrance width

G.3 - Suites requiring a barrier-free entrance 84

Parking The underground parking garage does not have any suites and therefore cannot have any barrierfree entrances.

Commercial / Residential According to the Clause 3.8.1.2. 3), any suites that fall under the occupancy of assembly, personal or business services, or mercantile must have a minimum one barrier-free entrance on the first storey or if the path of travel is not already barrier-free. The commercial / residential building has two suites on the ground level that therefore require a barrier-free entrance to comply with Clause 3.8.1.2. 3). The daycare (A2) and the café (E) have barrier-free entrances because they are on the first storey and have at least one barrier-free entrance as stated in G.2 - Barrier-free entrances (fig.

65). Therefore, the daycare and the café entrances comply with Clause 3.8.1.2. 3).

G.4 - Barrier-free path of travel In accordance with Sentence 3.8.1.3 1) every barrier-free path of travel shall provide an unobstructed width of at least 1 100 mm for the passage of wheelchairs for the parking and the commercial / residential building. It is also mentioned in Sentence 3.8.1.3 3) that barrier-free paths of travel are permitted to include ramps, passenger elevators or other platform equipped passenger elevating devices to overcome a difference in level. Sentence 3.8.1.3 4) also requires regarding path of travels with less than 1 600 mm in width and explains that not more than 30 m shall separate spaces of 1 800 mm in width and length in the path (fig.66).

Figure.66: The Article 3.8.1.3 for the distances of barrier-free path of travel

G.5 - Floors requiring a barrier-free path of travel

85

Parking In correspondence to Sentence 3.8.2.1. 1), a barrier-free path of travel is required for both P1 and P2. As the parking is not exterior, it does not need to follow the requirements of Clause 3.8.2.1.

2)(c) or Sentence 3.8.2.2. 1).

Commercial / Residential A Barrier-free path of travel is required to all three floors of the commercial / residential building, based on Article 3.8.2.1. According to Sentence 3.8.2.1. 5), at least 15% of the residential dwelling units (C) must have a barrier-free path of travel from the entrance door to the rooms on the same floor level. The Type 1 dwelling unit on the second floor complies with Sentence 3.8.2.1. 5) of being one storey and accounting for 16.7% of all building residential units. On the contrary, the Type 1 unit does not currently comply with the interior size requirements for an accessible bathroom to be barrier free, as stated in Clause 3.8.2.1. 6)(e), and will therefore need to be modified to provide more space for wheelchair accessibility (fig. 67).

Figure.67: The Sentence 3.8.2.1. 5)@6) on the dwelling unit barrier-free requirements (OBC, 2012)

G.6 - Areas of the building requiring a barrier-free path of travel Parking In accordance with Sentence 3.8.2.1.1) @ 4), because the floors of the parking garage are required to have barrier free pathways, the storage garage (F3) and storage warehouse (F3) on level P1 need a barrier-free path of travel. Furthermore, the storage garage (F3) on level P1 needs also a barrier free path of travel. However, both level do not have barrier-free path of travel since the path of travel to the elevator is smaller than 1 600 mm and the radius in front of the elevator is smaller than 1 800 mm, therefore in concordance with the Sentence 3.8.1.3 4), the areas of the building do not comply and size adjustments as well as new entrances will be made.

Commercial / Residential

86

In accordance with Sentence 3.8.2.1.1) @ 4), because the floors of the commercial / residential building are required to have barrier free pathways, the daycare (A2), the lobby (C) and café (E) on the ground level need a barrier-free path of travel. Furthermore, the dwelling units Type 1 (C) on the 2nd level and the lounges (C) on the 2nd and 3rd levels need also a barrier free path of travel.

On the ground level, second floor and third floor all the areas have a barrier free path of travel, therefore each area of the commercial / residential building complies with Sentence 3.8.2.1.1) @ 4).

G.7 - Barrier-free path of travel in residential suites Parking The underground parking garage does not have any residential suites and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential The commercial / residential building currently has a 100% barrier-free path of travel to residential suites. According to Sentence 3.8.2.1. 5), as previously stated in G.5 - Floors requiring a barrier-free path of travel, the residential suits comply with having one unit or 16.7% being barrier-free path of travel. On the contrary, there are no residential bathrooms that comply with Clause 3.8.2.1.6)(e), and therefore do not comply with Sentence 3.8.2.1.6) and are not barrier-free.

There are 16.7% of 1-bedroom suites in proportion to all 6 of the residential units (100%) being a barrier-free path of travel. There is a total of 83.3% of 3 bedroom units in comparison to the 0% of barrier-free path of travel units, due to the previously stated non-compliance with Sentence 3.8.2.1.6). There are barrier-free paths of travel suites among all the three floors.

G.8 - Barrier-free path of travel doorways & doors Based on Sentence 3.8.3.3 1), every doorway located on a barrier-free path of travel should have a minimum clear-width of 860 mm. Since all the doorways for both buildings have a minimum clear width of 860 mm, both buildings complies with Sentence 3.8.3.3 1). Also, according to Sentence 3.8.3.3 10), doors not equipped with a power door operator, in a barrier-free path of travel, must have a clear space, on the side, not less than 600 mm on the side of the door swinging on the approach side 300 mm on the side of the door swinging away from the approach side (fig. 68).

87

Figure.68: The Sentence 3.8.3.3. 10) in the OBC Appendix on the wheelchair size clearance (OBC, 2012)

In both buildings, every doorway in a barrier-free path of travel has at least 775 mm on the side of the door on the approach side (Commercial / Residential building - dwelling units type 1) and at least 300 mm on the side of the door swinging away from the approach side (Commercial / Residential building - café). By consequence, both buildings complies with Sentence 3.8.3.3 10).

G.9 - Barrier-free path of travel doorways & doors for residential suites Parking The storage garage does not have any residential suites and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential The mixed-use building requires doors that corridors that are 1060 mm or larger need a minimum doorway clearance width of 760 mm, according to the Sentence 3.8.3.3. 2). The residential corridors are larger than the required widths from Sentence 3.8.3.3. 2), and therefore the travel doorways and doors do comply.

G.10 - Vestibules in a barrier-free path of travel Parking The underground parking garage does not have any vestibules and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential 88

The lobby (C) of the commercial / residential serve as a vestibule and is in a barrier-free path of travel. In conformity with the Sentence 3.8.3.3 (11), it needs to allow movement for a wheelchair which is the case because of its size (1 500 mm) based on Sentence 3.8.3.3 1) and since the doors are not arranged in a series, the lobby complies to Sentence 3.8.3.3 (11).

G.11 - Ramps in a barrier-free path of travel Parking The parking does not have any pedestrian ramps and therefore this section is not applicable.

Commercial / Residential The commercial / residential does not have any pedestrian ramps and therefore this section is not applicable.

G.12 - Universal washrooms Parking According to Sentence 3.8.2.3 1) a barrier-free path of travel shall be provided to barrier-free washrooms designed to accommodate persons with disabilities. By consequence, using the Sentence 3.8.2.3.2. 2) and Table 3.8.2.3. A., the parking building which has none will need 1 universal washroom since it has 2 storeys. That universal washroom will need to conform to the 1 700 mm by 1 700 mm minimum dimensions for wheelchair accessibility as stated in Clause 3.8.3.12. 1)(h).

Commercial / Residential According to Sentence 3.8.2.3 1), the commercial / residential building also needs to provide universal washrooms. The building has one universal washroom in the café with dimension conforming to Clause 3.8.3.12. 1)(h). Therefore, the building since it has 3 storeys complies with Sentence 3.8.2.3.2. 2) and Table 3.8.2.3. A. G.13 - Barrier-free water closet stall Parking Following Clause 3.8.3.8. 1)(a), states that every water closet stall requires a turning diameter of at least 1500 mm to be barrier-free. The stall doors must also have an opening of 860 mm when the door is open, according to Sub-clause 3.8.3.8. 1)(b)(ii). Finally, if the water closet stall doors do not swing outward, a floor area of 820 mm by 1440 mm is required based on Sub-clause 3.8.3.8.

1)(b)(iii) to provide ample turning space for a wheelchair.

Commercial / Residential

89

The same water closet stall dimension requirements as the parking are needed as stated previously in compliance with Sentence 3.8.3.8. 1)(a) and 3.8.3.8. 1)(b).

G.14 - Barrier-free washrooms Parking In accordance with Sentence 3.7.4.2. 2), water closets need to be provided for each sex assuming that the occupant load is equally divided between males and females for each floor of the storage garage as previously stated in part D of this report. The Table 3.8.2.3. B was used to determine the number of barrier-free water closet stalls required per floor of the parking garage. Based on the Table 3.8.2.3. B, the first and second floor of the parking both require 2 barrier-free water (includes one male and one female) closet stalls out of the two washrooms required (includes one male and one female) per floor (fig.69). The P1 warehouse does not require any barrier-free water closet stalls as it will be an addition of a universal washroom.

Commercial / Residential The areas from the mixed-use building that require barrier-free water closet stalls are the daycare, lobby, open air space, café on the ground floor, and the two lounges on the second and third floors.

On the 1st floor The daycare requires 2 barrier-free water closet stalls per sex based on the Table 3.8.2.3. B, and with no universal washroom in a 45 m proximity. The lobby and the open air area do not require any barrier-free washroom stalls as they are within 45 m of the universal washroom located in the café.

On the 2nd floor The second floor lounge mandatory washrooms will be located with the third floor washrooms.

The required number of barrier-free water closet stalls are 1 for the male washroom and 1 for the female washroom, for a total of 2 barrier-free stalls.

On the 3rd floor The required number of barrier-free water closet stalls are 2 barrier-free stalls (includes one male and one female), which will be joined with the required washroom stalls from the second floor lounge. In total on the third floor there will be 4 barrier-free water closet stalls.

Part H : Parking Requirements Part H does not apply to the commercial / residential building and only the parking building will be discussed below.

H.1 - Vestibule and stair tower/elevator in storage garages According to Sentence 3.3.5.4. 1), a stair tower or elevator access is required from the storage garage through a vestibule (fig. #). According to Clause 3.3.5.7. 3)(a), the access space exiting from the stairs and elevator are not considered to be vestibule The current parking garage does have access through both stair towers and elevators, but does not connect to vestibules and therefore does not comply with 3.3.5.4. 1).

H.2 - Storage garage ventilation The Sentence 3.3.5.4. 4) requires either mechanical or natural ventilation for the storage garage.

The parking building will use mechanical ventilation. Sentence 3.3.5.4. 4) refers to Article 6.2.2.3 also discusses open-air storey ventilation, but this is not applicable as the parking is completely below grade (fig. 70)

92

Figure.70: Article 6.2.2.3 on the ventilation for the parking garage (OBC online, 2017)

93

H.3 - Storage garage height Corresponding to Sentence 3.3.5.4. 7), the minimum clearance height for the parking garage is 2 m (fig. 71). The storage garage height for the first storey P1 is equal to 2.4 m and the second storey P2 is 3.3 m. Therefore, the storage garage height complies with Sentence 3.3.5.4. 7).

Figure.71: The required storage garage height

H.4 - Sprinklers in storage garage As the storage garage’s storeys are below grade, both P1 and P2 floors must be sprinklered to comply with Clause 3.3.5.4. 7) (fig.72).

94

Figure.72: The Article 3.3.5.4 states the size requirements for the parking garage (OBC, 2012)

95

Part 9: Senior Residence Building I1 - Project Type The senior residential building is a new project based on the Subsection 1.1.2 in the building code Appendix.

I2-3 - Major Occupancy Classification & Superimposed Major Occupancies: The Subsection 9.10.2 determines that the major occupancy classification for residential is Group C with no superimposed major occupancies since the building is solely residential.

I4 - Building Area (m2) The building area is a total of 331m2 (fig. 73).

Figure.73: The area of the senior’s residence

I5 - Gross Area (m2) The gross area for the first and second floors are 331m2, and the third floor is 238 m2 for a total gross floor area of 900 m2 (fig.74).

96

Figure.74: The gross area of all floors of the senior’s residence

97

I6. - Mezzanine Area (m2) There are no mezzanines in the building and therefore this section is not applicable.

I7. - Building Height The senior building height is 3 storeys and 13 m above grade with no storeys below grade (fig.75).

Figure.75: The building height of the Senior’s residence

I8 - Number of Streets/ Firefighter access There is one street based on Clause 3.2.2.10. 2) (See fig.76 below).

98

Figure.76: The exposure of the Residence to the street

I9. - Sprinkler System The senior residential building follows the Article 3.2.2.48 and complies with Clause 3.2.2.48. 1) (b), Sub-Clause 3.2.2.48. 1) c) (iii), since it is a building of Group C that has a height of 3 storeys.

Based on the Clause 3.2.2.48. 1) (a) the building will need to be sprinklered in the entire building (fig. 77).

Figure.77: The Article 3.2.2.48 on the residential requirements (OBC, 2012)

99

I10 - Fire Alarm System Considering the Sub-Clause 9.10.18.2. 1) (c) and the Table 9.10.18.2, the building has an occupant load exceeding 10. Therefore, based on the Sentence 9.10.18.2. 1) the entire building requires a fire alarm system (fig.78).

Figure.78: The Article 9.10.18.2 on the requirements for a fire alarm (OBC, 2012)

I.11 - Water service/Supply Water service/Supply needs to be adequate according to the Article 9.31.3.1 Article 3.2.5.18 and 3.2.5.19 I12-13 - Construction Type & Post-disaster Building According to the Sentence 3.2.2.48. 2), the senior residential building can be built with combustible or non-combustible material (fig.79). Therefore, the building will be combustible.

The senior residential building is not a post-disaster building based on the definition found in the building code Appendix 1.4.1.2.

100

Figure.79: The Article 3.2.2.48 on the material requirements for the Residential building (OBC, 2012)

I14 - Occupant Load The Clause 3.1.17. 1)(b) states that each sleeping room accounts for 2 occupants. Therefore, the first and second floor has 4 units, which equates to 8 occupants per floor, and the third floor has 2 units and accounts for 4 people.

I15 - Barrier-free Design The Sentence 9.5.2.1. 1) on barrier-free design, contains the exception to Article 3.8.1.1, which is not applicable, so the building must conform to Section 3.8. Since there is 1 pedestrian entrance in the building, according to Table 3.8.1.2 1), the building is required to have 1 pedestrian entrance that is barrier-free. Referring to the Clause 3.8.1.2. 4)(a) all entrances and doorways must follow the measurement requirements of Article 3.8.3.3 (fig. 81). Following fig. 82 and fig.

83 the building complies with Section 3.8.

Figure.81: The Article 3.8.3.3 on the dimension requirements for doorways and doors (OBC, 2012)

103

Figure.82: The existing dimensions for the doors within the units

Figure.83: The North Elevation of the Residential building and the barrier-free entrance

I16 - Hazardous Substances Since the building is solely designed for residential purposes and does not conform to 9.10.1.3, there are no hazardous substances.

I17 - Required Fire Resistance Ratings According to Table 9.10.8.1, the required fire resistance rating and supporting assembly for the floors is a minimum of 45 minutes. There are no floors above the basement, mezzanine, or

104

rooftop space, so they are not applicable. The Article 9.10.8.3 states that the fire-resistance ratings for walls and columns are to be no less than what is required for the floor.

I18 - Spatial Separation (north & west facade) The spatial separation requirement between buildings for the south and west facade follows the Article 9.10.14, because it does not comply with the Subsection 9.10.15 based on the Clause 9.10.14.1. 1). Table 15 & Table 16 below follows the Article 9.10.14.2 to calculate the exposing building face (EBF) area (Fig.84 & 86). The limiting distance was calculated following the centre line of the laneway (fig.85) and the centre line of College street (fig.87). The maximum aggregate area of unprotected openings was calculated using Table 9.10.14.4. The fire resistance rating (FRR), type of construction, and type of cladding was determined using the Sub-clause 9.10.14.2.

1)(b)(ii) and the Table 9.10.14.5.

I19 - Plumbing Fixture Requirements The plumbing fixture requirements follow Section 9.31. The Articles 9.31.3.2 and 9.31.4.1 state the required fixtures for each dwelling unit (fig. 88). The senior building complies to 9.31.1.1. 1) for plumbing facilities for dwelling units (See fig.89 & fig. 90) (Table.17).

I20 - Energy Efficiency The location of the site is located in Sudbury, which has Heating Degree Days (HDD) of 5180 and in Zone 2 according to the Table 1.2 design data for selected locations in Ontario from the MMA Supplementary/SB-1. The remainder of the energy efficiency matrix questions are not able to be completed at this time.

Conclusion In closing, the building code research has allowed for a better design and understanding of the Conjuguer project. The project buildings and the Ontario Building Code were analyzed through the lenses of necessity, safety, and accessibility. The three buildings that were examined are the parking, the mixed-use commercial and residential building, and the residential building. The Ontario Building Code investigates the classification of the building (Part A), the occupant loads (Part B), the safety (Part C), plumbing (Part D), fire separation (Part E), spatial separation (Part F), barrier-free accessibility (Part G), and parking (Part H).

The main issues and modifications that need to be made for compliance with the code are the safety exits, the barrier-free accessibility, and the lack of washrooms. One of the areas where there was a lack of compliance with the code was with Part C: Safety, means of egress and exits.

In C.2 - Distance between exits, the parking garage on the first and second floors had travel distances that are less than the minimum distance between exits for a floor area without a public corridor. The distance of travel being less than the minimum was also non-compliant for the commercial / residential building’s first-floor daycare. The new smoke travel distances were increased to create a greater distance for the smoke giving more time for people to exit. Another large design and compliance issue is the lack of means of egress for the multiple storey dwelling units on the third floor of the commercial / residential building (fig. 34). Additionally, the corridor width with a dead-end on the second floor needs to have a smaller distance, located in the same area as the exit stairs for the potential means of egress for the third floor. To answer those issues and be compliant with the building code, the second and third-floor plans will need to be reconfigured to make space for a means of egress and the shorter dead-end corridor.

Figure.34: The implementation of a new means of egress for Floor 3 - Commercial / Residential building

Secondly, in Part D: Plumbing facilities, there is a lack of water closets and lavatories required for both the storage garage and mixed-use building (example: 1st floor (fig. 43).). The addition of

113

several washroom facilities in both buildings will require adjustments to the floor plans on all storeys.

Figure.43: The addition of required plumbing fixtures for Floor 1 - Commercial / Residential building

Lastly, in Part G: Barrier-free design, the residential dwelling units of the commercial / residential building require more space within the washrooms for the turning radius of wheelchairs.

In summary, some larger issues overlap and will require solving multiple code compliance together, like the residential units within the commercial / residential building.

Furthermore, according to the building code, the ground floor of the commercial / residential building is required to be built of non-combustible material, but this is problematic as the goal for this project is to have a mass timber structure. Instead, a counter-proposal referencing the Canadian CLT handbook and case study research proving that a mass timber structure is capable of sustaining the building will be conducted.

Implementing the code is essential to create better design solutions for the safety and accessibility of the occupants to fully enjoy and use the spaces. By doing the building code investigation at this point in the design process, the changes that need to be made are not drastic and do not impede the initial intentions and design. The implementation of the code has made the design better by identifying problem areas within the buildings. For example with the residential units in the commercial / residential building, which will now receive properly spaced dwelling units to corridor ratio and provide a second exit on the third floor. The design had been created through existing site constraints, but now through the code, it was filtered to be a better and optimal and safer version. The modifications of the code should be realized after the creative design process as to not fully limit the potential and creativity of design. The introduction of technical aspects after the design base has been created to allow for refinement and safety measures.

114

The role of the architect is not only to create beautiful spaces but to create spaces that work and hold the user’s best interest at hand. The application of the building code puts the occupants' safety and needs first.

The building code requirements are at a safety standard that has been tested and is continually updated so that architects can have more than just functioning buildings. As well now that the code has been thoroughly studied, the gained knowledge on safety and accessibility standards have become design conventions that will carry on to future projects. The Conjuguer mixed-use buildings have now been technically reviewed to move on to continue the design at greater depth.

Universal washrooms are enclosed washrooms providing one barrier-free toilet and one sink. The space can accommodate a wheeled mobility device (turning space). Universal washrooms provide privacy and dignity for people of all abilities and can also benefit families with small children. They are thus not required to be designated for people with disabilities only. * : in G.6, please note that you need to identify spaces that NEED as well as spaces that DO NOT NEED barrier-free paths of travel in order to adequately design all floorplans.
