What content is included in Volume 2 of the Building Code Compendium?

Volume 2 of the Building Code Compendium specifically includes appendices and supplementary standards that provide additional information and clarification related to the main provisions of the Ontario Building Code. These appendices often contain details such as alternative solutions, guidelines for compliance, and technical standards that assist in the application of the Code.

This volume is crucial as it supplements the main regulations found in the code, offering a comprehensive understanding of various requirements and best practices that builders, designers, and other stakeholders need to follow. The presence of these resources ensures that users have access to updated information that aids in the interpretation and implementation of building regulations.

In contrast, building plans and layouts, legal cases and rulings, and design software and tools pertain to different aspects of building design or legal interpretations rather than being a direct part of the Code's structured content. Therefore, they do not belong to the scope covered in Volume 2 of the Compendium.
