1 Scope
1.1 General
This Standard specifies special requirements for the durability aspects of the design and construction of new parking structures and parts of buildings subject to vehicular traffic.
This includes pedestrian traffic areas adjoining to or contained within parking structures. These include areas such as stairs, and pedestrian bridges from parking structures.
The application of this Standard includes structures which are designed for the storage and/or repair of vehicles whether those structures are stand alone, above ground or below ground, part of or connected to the structure of a larger structure/development.
Note: This includes commercial, residential, industrial or institutional, and all other building types.
1.2 Structure types
New parking structures constructed of structural steel, reinforced concrete (including prestressed concrete), or a combination of these materials fall within the scope of this Standard.
1.3 Repair of existing parking structures
This Standard does not cover the repair of existing parking structures, and the provisions of this Standard are not necessarily appropriate for the repair and protection of existing structures.
Note: See CSA S448.1 for information on the repair of concrete structures.
1.4 Reference standards
In the event of conflict between this Standard and the reference standards, this Standard takes precedence.
1.5 Terminology
In this Standard, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the Standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard.
Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.
Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements.
Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.
1.1 General
This Code specifies the requirements for those parts of a building’s information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure that enhance the safety, security, and reliability of the building by detecting or causing changes through the direct monitoring and/or control of a building’s real property equipment, assets, processes, and events. It applies to buildings, structures, and premises including factory-built relocatable and non-relocatable structures.
This Code outlines requirements for the following criteria relevant for building systems ICT infrastructure:
operational performance;
security and privacy;
network typology; and
physical environment.
1.2 Inclusions
The Code applies to network security profile, environmental protection, and ICT infrastructure that is associated only with building systems (e.g., HVAC, lighting, video surveillance systems) for office, multi-unit residential, and institutional buildings (e.g., schools, universities, convention centres, health care facilities).
1.3 Exclusions
The Code does not cover
detailed design of building systems connected to the ICT system;
tenant systems (e.g., file servers, printing, IP phones, HR systems) and the ICT infrastructure associated with these systems; and
health care systems (e.g., nurse call systems, oxygen supply systems, CT scans, MRIs) and the ICT infrastructure associated with these systems.
1.4 Terminology
In this Code, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the Code; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Code.
Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.
Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements.
Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.
1.1 These requirements apply to DC conductive charging equipment intended to be supplied with a maximum input voltage of 1000 V ac or 1500 V dc, for recharging the propulsion batteries in over-the-road electric vehicles (EV). Equipment is intended to be installed in accordance with the Installation Codes in Annex A, Ref. No. 1. DC charging equipment, either standalone chargers or dispensers, with internal batteries exceeding 100 Wh and less than 20kWh serving as energy storage also is intended to be installed in accordance with the installation requirements in Annex A, Ref. No. AA. DC charging equipment with separable enclosures with internal batteries not in a standalone charger or charging dispenser shall be dual listed with the enclosures containing internal batteries also listed under UL 9540. DC charging equipment for EV installations are intended for either:
a) Dry location only, or
b) Dry, wet, and damp location.
1.2 The output of the DC charging equipment for EV covered by this standard does not exceed 1500 V dc.
1.3 For the purposes of this Standard, the term "electric vehicle", designated throughout by the initials "EV", is considered to cover electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and plug-in versions of these vehicles.
1.4 DC charging equipment for EV that is not a complete assembly and depends upon installation in an end product for compliance with the requirements in this Standard is investigated under the requirements of this Standard and the standard for the end product.
1.5 These requirements do not cover battery chargers covered by Annex A, Ref. Nos. 2 and 3.
1.6 These requirements do not cover on-board chargers.
1.7 These requirements do not cover electric vehicle supply equipment covered by Annex A, Ref. No. 4.
1.8 These requirements do not cover DC charging equipment for EV intended to be used in hazardous locations, such as near fuel dispensing stations.
1.9 These requirements do not apply to cover bi-directional charging equipment, or unidirectional power export equipment, covered by Annex A, Ref. No. 73B.
1.1 This Standard applies to conductive electric vehicle (EV) supply equipment with a primary source voltage of 1000 V ac or less, with a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz, and intended to provide ac power to an electric vehicle with an on-board charging unit. This Standard covers electric vehicle supply equipment intended for use where ventilation is not required.
1.2 With reference to 1.1, the following list of examples of electric vehicle supply equipment are included in this Standard:
a) EV Cord Sets – Rated 125 Vac maximum, 16 A maximum, intended for indoor and outdoor use;
b) Fastened in place EV Charging Stations – Rated 250 Vac maximum, 40 A maximum, intended for indoor or outdoor use;
c) Fixed in place EV Charging Stations – Rated 1000 Vac maximum, intended for indoor or indoor/outdoor use; and
d) Fixed in place EV Power Outlet – Rated 1000 Vac maximum, intended for indoor or indoor/outdoor use.
For Mexico, use 127 Vac where 120 or 125 Vac is referenced in this Standard. In Canada and the United States, this does not apply.
1.3 The products covered by this Standard are intended for use in accordance with the Installation Codes in Annex A, Ref. No. 1.
1.4 This Standard does not cover cord sets or power supply cords for applications other than EV charging cord sets. For cord sets and power supply cords not covered by this Standard, refer to Annex A, Ref. No. 2 and No. 3.
1.5 With reference to 1.2, this Standard does not cover electric vehicle charging equipment. For EV charging equipment not covered by this Standard, refer to Annex A, Ref. No. 4.
1.6 This Standard does not cover electric vehicle connectors. For electric vehicle connectors not covered by this Standard, refer to Annex A, Ref. No. 5.
1.7 This Standard does not cover regular-use power outlets. For regular-use power outlets not covered by this Standard, refer to Annex A, Ref. No. 6.
1.8 This Standard does not cover equipment intended for wireless power transfer, which may also be designated as wireless charging, inductive charging, magnetic resonance charging, or any other similar designation indicating the transfer of power from the EVSE to the vehicle through other than a conductive connection.
1.9 This standard does not cover electric vehicle export equipment, allowing bi-directional current flow from the vehicle to off board loads. For electric vehicle power export equipment, refer to Annex A, Ref. No. 75.
