you did a very long time ago (surprised its not built yet –
but good things take time) – that is it for Canada codes –
Other codes are a little better on working dimensions. Codes
are codes – it shouldn’t have been an effort and
professionals are supposed to give correct information. You
now have an obligation to tell us ‘why’ the ‘eng’ or
designer said it was not ‘allowed’ and also to promise that
there will be sufficient knee room – legs are getting

style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I'd
actually posted the initial question a while back. Wow,
what a flurry of responses! In Ontario, it is indeed
possible to place a powder room under a staircase, provided
that ventilation, headroom and egress criteria are met. It
certainly took some effort to find this out (and to convince
the designer) but it is now in the plans. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p>I guess that has to depend on where the job is, and most
particularly where the engineer is, but I have done it
several times and, as long as the minimum height
requirements are applied, it hasn't been a problem. And the
engineer hasn't so much as said "Boo!" I really have to
wonder what the codes are that "don't permit"... <o:p></o:p></p>
