Hello, what level of intervention would constitute as "Major Renovation"? we are renovating a building from the 1890's and need to preserve the shell, interior partitions, structure etc, but are renewing all energy, water, ventilation systems, and of course interiors and furnishings. Can I asume this would be accounted for as major renovation and then be able to certify under NC 2009?

Yes that certainly sounds like a major renovation.

A good rule of thumb - if the work is ongoing while the building is occupied, it's probably not a major renovation. If the spaces has been vacated - major reno.
