I'm going to be doing some renovations in my home and would like to make sure I do everything to code (I live in Ontario, Canada, so this would be the Ontario Code). I'm currently reading thru the "Electrical Code Simplified - Residental Wiring, Ontario Edition" book (it's the yellow book ...) and it's wonderful, just what I need to rewire the house (with the help of an electrician).
Now I'm hoping to get similiar information about the Ontario building code ... I'm not building a house, just need the simplified version of it ... R values, drywall thickness, stud size, etc. Is there an "Ontario Building Code Simplified" type of book that I can purchase, if so what's it called. If not, what's the best way to learn the basic code to help me renovate some parts of the house up to code (preferable without spending a couple hundred on the actual code books)
I'm also interesting in a simplified version of the Ontario plumbing code, since I'll be moving some plumbing around in the kitchen when it get's renovated.
Thanks, Harry
