New Alberta Building, Fire and Energy Codes
The 2014 editions of the Alberta Building Code and the Alberta Fire Code based on the 2010 National Building and Fire Codes were adopted at the end of February 2015 by provincial regulation. Also adopted by regulation is the National Energy Code for Buildings (NECB) 2011 edition.
For more information and details on when these codes can be implemented in Alberta follow the link below:
When is the National Energy Code for Building 2011 being adopted in Alberta?
Will it be adopted as printed or will there be “Alberta” revisions?
According to Kevan Jess:
So the notice your link takes you to gives the in force date for the NECB 2011 as November 1, 2015 (transition ends May 1, 2016).
There are no Alberta additions to the NECB 2011 that I am aware of.

Where can I find emergency exit requirements. I’m renovating a coffee shop but the landlord is saying that it doesn’t need a emergency exit cause the front door is only feet away. Can someone help me out.
As long as the coffee shop is being renovated under a building permit, the Calgary Fire Department will be involved. They will ensure that the renovation meets the Building Code.
Regardless, I think this is the appropriate part of the code you are looking for.
