Proposed Technical Changes

Technical changes modify the technical meaning of Code provisions.

All comments submitted by November 23, 2007 will be reviewed by the relevant CCBFC standing committees. The standing committees will then either withdraw the proposed technical change, recommend that it be reviewed further for future consideration as a proposed change, or recommend that it be approved by the CCBFC, with or without modification.

If approved by the CCBFC, the technical changes will be published in the 2010 edition of the NBC, NFC and NPC.

For an explanation of the different sections of the proposed change form, see the Sample Form.

Summaries of the significant proposed technical changes for NBC Parts 3 and 9 and the NFC provide the context for these changes.
