Dealing with Accessibility Standards that Conflict or Don't Exist

Gain the tools needed in determining the best method of meeting accessibility standards based on different uses, funding sources, and site conditions.

When faced with a project where you need to follow the accessibility laws and codes, you may find yourself asking Which ones apply? and How do I proceed when there are conflicts? This topic will provide some tools to assist in determining the best method of meeting compliance based on different uses, funding sources, and site conditions. Misinterpreting the accessibility requirements can result in substantial costs, delays, and potential litigation. Therefore, this will be beneficial for all persons involved in a construction project, from the architect to the developer to the general contractor.

Learning Objectives

  • You will be able to identify similarities and difference between Accessibility Requirements.
  • You will be able to discuss how to address conflicts when they occur.
  • You will be able to recognize what to do if there are no standards.
  • You will be able to review documents and field conditions to better assess for non-compliance.
