Overview
A three-page building guide from the City of Kitchener on determining grade, the average level of ground adjoining a building, and from it building height. It quotes the Ontario Building Code definitions of grade, building height, storey, first storey and basement, gives a length-weighted average grade formula, and works an example with building elevations, a grading plan and a segment table that ends in a three storey building plus basement. It is one of the Building Division's standard guides.
