Amendments to Chapter III, Plumbing, of the
Construction Code were adopted by the Province of Quebec on March 19, 2008 with
an effective date of July 1, 2008. This Chapter comprises the National Plumbing
Code of Canada 2005 (NPC) and approximately 180 changes related to potable
water supply, drainage systems, as well as the sale and lease of materials and
fixtures to be used in plumbing systems, among others. The Plumbing Chapter is
intended for designers, contractors responsible for carrying out building work,
and owner-builders.
NRC-IRC, in collaboration with the Régie du
bâtiment du Québec, is pleased to announce the publication of the
Quebec Construction Code, Chapter III - Plumbing, and National Plumbing Code
of Canada 2005 (amended). This new document includes the amendments to
Chapter III, Plumbing, and the amended NPC provisions so as to indicate clearly
to users the changes that apply to construction and renovation work in
Quebec. |
As in the case of the NPC, an
objective-based approach was used to prepare this new Chapter III, Plumbing.
The majority of the Code provisions are linked to objectives describing the
overall goals that the provisions are intended to achieve and to functional
statements describing conditions that help satisfy the objectives. This new
information allows for flexibility by helping users evaluate alternative
solutions to the acceptable solutions provided in the Code. |
