National Building Code of Canada

National Building Code of Canada

(OP)
I am looking for an online resource for part 4 of the National Building Code of Canada.  Does anyone know of an online resource without having to purchase the full code?

The Design Loads listed in CAN/CSA Z721-98 (Safety Code for Elevated Platforms) lists the loads specified in Part 4 of the NBCofC.  It really urkes me when codes do not put the information required into it?  Why did I pay the $80 just to be referenced to another code when they could have just put the load combination table in here as well?

RE: National Building Code of Canada

It's a feature of CSA... and they keep publishing stuff each 5 years to keep themselves employed.  I've not done any elevated platforms, but you can check my handle for other areas of interest.
