Stepping Thru Toilet & Bathing Facilities – What Makes Them Accessible

DESCRIPTION
Although toilet and bathing facilities have been around forever and the new ADA Standards for over a half dozen years, we still have facilities that are not completely compliant. The major question is, why? Each component within a toilet or bathing room has a myriad of requirements needing to fit together like a puzzle. We will take an in-depth look at the technical and scoping requirements for Access and how it impacts toilet and bathing facility design, whether single-user, multi-user, or multiple single user, including requirements for each of the individual components.

SUMMARY
Most buildings have toilet and/or bathing facilities which are some of the more complex items in Access – we will take an in-depth look at technical and scoping requirements and its impact on toilet and bathing facility design, whether single- user, multi-user, or multiple single user including the requirements for each of the individual components

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Understand overall scoping and spatial parameters for toilet and bathing facility
  • Review differences between between single and multi-user facilities
  • Learn technical requirements for the various elements typically found within a toilet or bathing room
  • Overview critical design factors for compliant design

typically 5 hours for the full seminar, 4 hours for abbreviated eliminating showers & bath tubs
