2 4. Entries and Blanks in the Form. All blanks must be filled-in, except that in the case of stair lifts shaded spaces may remain blank and also in the case of standard design spaces specified in guideline 8 may remain blank. Entry N/A shall be used where an item is not applicable. Where the provided blanks cannot accommodate all data, additional pages may be enclosed, bearing reference numbers of respective blanks. The entries in this specification are legally binding and shall prevail in the case of discrepancy with any other documents in the submission. Please note that it is an offence to knowingly, make a false statement in any document required by Ontario s Elevating Devices Act and the Regulation. 5. Units & Abbreviation in the Form. Numbers in brackets, e.g. (3.3.3) or (T1) mean a clause or table in CSA standard B3555 to which a designer should refer for clarification of the terminology used, or of the expected entry. All entries shall be expressed in metric units in accordance with CSA Standard CAN3-Z324, 1-7_ Canadian Metric Practice Guide. Where model of a part is required to be specified, it will mean any designation: e.g. name, number, etc., which is specific to that particular model and which enables any person and the original manufacturer to identify the part. 6. Additional Specification Data. This specification requires only data on a few common components and characteristics for an elevating device. However, the submitting engineer should, if he/she considers it necessary, forward additional specification data to the manufacturer or submitter in order to ensure that the balance for the parts and features of the elevating device type, mandatorily required by the code, will be fulfilled. 7. Major Alteration. In the case of design submission for major alteration, the specification and drawings may be limited to the scope of the proposed alteration so that whole sections may be omitted. 8. Standard Design. For Standard design Submissions, related details and procedures, please refer appropriate Director s Ruling. This ruling also contains instructions for new submissions or alterations based on standard design. 9. Lift location and fire protection. The engineer who signs this specification must assure himself/herself that the design of the runway enclosure and obstruction created by stair chair or platform, as the case may be, are acceptable to the authorities governing fire resistivity and egresss.
