The OAA is pleased to announce it has renewed access to critical CSA standards for Ontario’s practices and licensed members through the CSA OnDemand program. The renewal takes effect Thursday, June 1. For more on eligibility, how to register or renew, and to review the User Guides, visit the OAA's landing page. 

From Design Development to General Review, CSA standards are used to ensure design and construction meet regulatory requirements, the building code, and the public interest. In support of its mandate to serve the public interest, the OAA has arranged for free viewing access to all CSA standards referenced in the Ontario Building Code or National Building Code of Canada, including previous versions of the standards, in both English and French versions, where available. 

This year’s subscription continues to include three additional topical standards:

• CSA A460:19 Bird-friendly Building Design;
• CSA A500:16 (R2021) Building Guards; and
•  CSA Z250:21 Process for Delivery of Volumetric Modular Buildings.
