What new requirements does Part 2 of Division B introduce?

Part 2 of Division B of the Ontario Building Code specifically addresses technical requirements that apply broadly to large farm buildings. This section outlines essential standards related to structural integrity, safety measures, and other technical aspects necessary for the construction and renovation of these facilities. It ensures that agricultural buildings are not only functional but also constructed with safety and efficiency in mind, reflecting the specific needs of agricultural operations.

Focusing on large farm buildings helps to distinguish this requirement from others that may pertain solely to residential structures or accessibility features, which are covered under different parts of the code or entirely separate regulations. Similarly, fire protection and occupant safety are covered in different sections of Division B, as are provisions for residential accessibility, which do not fall under the specific purview of Part 2 for large farm buildings.
