Seneca College Facilities Management March 11, 2016 Seneca College Markham Campus 1.0 INTRODUCTION LRI Engineering Inc. (LRI) has conducted a site audit for general barrier-free accessibility within the Seneca College Markham campus, in accordance with the approved proposal dated November 25, 2015. The audit was conducted on the basis of the 2012 Ontario Building Code (OBC) barrier-free requirements relative to general floor area maneuverability and washroom requirements, as amended (i.e. amendments effective January 1, 2015). Additionally, the site audit included a visual review of the inclusion of barrier-free service counters, fixed queuing guides, recreational trails and general public waiting areas, forming part of the Design of Public Spaces standard of the AODA. The audit took place over several days of site measurements during the month of December 2015. The scope of the review is based on applicable requirements within Section 3.8 of the OBC. It is noted that the recent accessibility amendments to the OBC primarily within Ontario Regulation 368/13, and within Ontario Regulation 191/14, are partially a result of proposed changes for the built environment as part of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) legislation. The requirements of the 2012 OBC are not retroactive. As such, noncompliant existing building elements are not subject to mandatory upgrading, until such time as renovations are proposed.
