"Commissioned under the National Research Council of Canada (NRC), this report reviews how the National Building Code of Canada (NBC) 2020 Part 3 travel distance provisions (Sentence 3.4.2.5.(1), maximum allowable distance to an exit in an emergency and related egress rules) are currently applied, what assumptions underlie them, and where clarifications would improve consistent use.
