In Plain Language

This clause says garages and carports follow the same general building requirements as any other building under this Part, unless a more specific rule elsewhere in this Section says otherwise.

This is a plain-language summary of the 2012/2017 Ontario Building Code text above, for general understanding only and not a substitute for the Code. Always confirm current requirements against the 2024 edition (O.Reg. 163/24) or a qualified professional before construction.
