Using the ADA and ABA Standards Series: Chapter 2: Scoping - Alterations

Thursday, March 5, 2020

Description

Determining what is required to be accessible when a facility is altered or expanded can be a challenge. This session will review how Chapter 2 of the ADA and ABA Accessibility Standards apply to planned alterations and additions. Presenters will clarify common sources of confusion, including what type of work constitutes an “alteration,“ how the scope of work determines application, the provisions for primary function areas and accessible paths of travel, historic facilities, and technical infeasibility.
