Practice Tips & Regulatory Notices

Practice Tips & Regulatory Notices are available to any interested party to promote better understanding of the services architects offer and to generally help clarify the expectations of those who work with architects.

In 2009 Practice Bulletins were reviewed for accuracy, currency of content, elimination of redundancies and consolidation where appropriate. The bulletins have been re-organized and reformatted from the previous A, B, C, D and Numeric versions into Practice Tips and Regulatory Notices, ‘PT’ and ‘R’ series.

The one exception is Practice Bulletin A.9 Ontario Building Code (OBC) - OBC Data on Drawings, containing Data Matrixes Part 3 and 9, and Part 11, which is being maintained as it is currently listed in Regulation 27.

(Practice Tip PT.3 2006 Building Code (BC) - BC Data on Drawings contains the same information.) 

Practice Tips provide guidance on issues affecting the daily practice of architecture. They support architects by helping them apply ‘best practices’ to meet the standards of the profession.

New Practice Tips (these are the newest practice  tips that will be moved shortly into the bank of existing PT):

(PT.23):  
is a series of Practice Tips related to contracts, guides and other publications of the Canadian Construction Documents Committee (CCDC).

PT.27: 
This Practice Tip has been prepared to clarify the definition contained in the standard forms of client/architect contracts by listing tasks involved within the various phases of the architect’s services.
