Specific Spaces and Occupancies
The ADA Standards include scoping requirements specific to certain types of spaces and facilities that apply based on the intended use and design. Spaces with multiple uses must meet all applicable requirements for each use. Scoping provisions for specific spaces and occupancies address:
Transportation Facilities (§218) and Bus Stops (§209)
Assembly Areas (§221) *
Dressing, Fitting, and Locker Rooms (§222)
Medical Care and Long-Term Care Facilities (§223) *
Transient Lodging Guest Rooms (§224) *
Storage (§225)
Judicial Facilities (§231)
Detention and Correctional Facilities (§232) *
Residential Facilities (§233) *
Recreation Facilities (§234 – §243)
DOJ’s 2010 ADA Standards incorporate regulatory language that modifies or augments a number of these provisions (noted with an asterisk) and also set forth additional requirements for spaces and facilities provided in housing at a place of education, social service center establishments, and curb ramps.
