In CSA Standards, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to

satisfy in order to comply with the standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which

is advised but not required; and “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the

limits of the standard, and “can” is used to express possibility or capability. Notes accompanying clauses

do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is

to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.  Notes to tables and figures are considered

part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements.  Legends to equations and figures are

considered requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (nonmandatory)

to define their application
