When your design falls outside the prescriptive acceptable solutions in the BC Building Code or National Building Code – Alberta Edition (NBC(AE)), an Alternative Solution (AS) allows the project to proceed — provided it can be demonstrated to achieve the same level of performance.

 

CompliLogic Solutions has extensive experience preparing Alternative Solutions accepted by Authorities Having Jurisdiction across BC and Alberta. We combine technical analysis, fire and egress modelling, and clear documentation to build a compelling, well-supported case for your design.

​

Whether the goal is design innovation, cost efficiency, sustainability, or accommodating a site constraint, our team finds creative, practical paths to compliance without compromising safety or project vision.

 

 

Our Alternative Solutions services include:

• Review of design intent and identification of non-compliant elements

• Engineering-based AS for designs that fall outside Division B acceptable solutions

• Liaison with Authorities Having Jurisdiction across BC and Alberta

• Fire, smoke, and egress modelling to support engineering-based AS submissions

• Full documentation and technical justification packages for AHJ submission

 

Alternative Solutions can save your project from costly redesigns. Contact CompliLogic to discuss whether your project qualifies.
