UFAS Accessibility Checklist.


PB96152996

Publication Date 1990
Page Count 104
Abstract The purpose of this workbook is to enable people to survey buildings for compliance with the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS). UFAS defines environments which are safe, accessible and usable by people of all ages and abilities. This survey covers UFAS requirements for new construction. It can also be used to survey existing buildings to identify those features or elements in need of modifications. This workbook presents all of the technical requirements of UFAS in the logical progression of traveling to and through a building. The 21 survey forms represent elements on the site and in the building. The survey materials reflect the three levels of UFAS requirements: Occupancy Classifications, Minimum Requirements, and Technical Requirements.
