Accessible Toilet Rooms

2:30 pm EDT October 03, 2019   |   Organized by: Great Lakes ADA Center

Description

Most technical questions about the ADA and ABA Accessibility Standards concern access to toilet and bathing facilities. This session will clarify common sources of confusion and frequently asked questions about accessible toilet rooms. Presenters will review requirements for toilets and toilet compartments, urinals, lavatories and mirrors, doors, turning space, dispensers, and amenities such as baby-changing tables. They will explain how these provisions apply and interrelate in designing single-user and multi-user toilet rooms in compliance with the standards. This will be followed by a webinar on bathing facilities (October 24).
