Calgary Deck Code

[JfuckinC]

Is there anything like this: https://www.cochrane.ca/DocumentCenter/View/2894 for City of Calgary? Guidelines to the deck building code? I've searched a ton and can't find anything.. I feel like im just missing it somehow haha.. :banghead:

Edit: sorry I should just point out I'm looking for Post/Beam/Joist size/spacing requirments. Thanks!

You would want to look at the Alberta Building Code for those requirements.

You would want to look at the Alberta Building Code for those requirements.

In that case, any of the rockyview standards would be sufficient then for Calgary I guess eh. Essentially I could use the Cochrane one as a guideline?

The Cochrane stuff looks like it comes out of the Alberta Building Code. Yes use that as a template.
When you file for your building permit the inspector will tell you what is wrong before issuing the permit.
