• Scope of work
• Technical feasibility
• Primary function areas affected
Application determined by:
Alterations
![Page 44: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44
In general, standards apply to those spaces and elements that are altered
Application & Scoping
![Page 45: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
45
Within an altered space, standards apply to those elements that are altered
(accessible route not required unless circulation paths altered or path of travel required)
Application & Scoping
![Page 46: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
46
Recommendation:
Maximize opportunities for access beyond minimum
required where possible –
often more cost-effective when work is already underway
Application & Scoping
![Page 47: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
47
Specific provisions for alterations located throughout standards
(refer to “alterations” or “existing facilities”)
Alterations
![Page 48: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
48
Alterations:
not required to exceed NC level of access (§202.3.2, §F202.3.2)
can’t reduce access below NC level (§202.3.1, §F202.3.1)
New construction = basis for alterations (aside from specific provisions/ exceptions)
Application & Scoping
![Page 49: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
49
Meeting standards not possible because:
• Existing structural conditions would require removing/ altering a load-bearing member that is an essential part of the structural frame OR
• Other existing physical or site constraints prohibit full compliance
Compliance required to the maximum extent feasible
Technical Infeasibility
![Page 50: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

Space limitations and technical infeasibility
Technical Infeasibility
![Page 51: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
51
Example: Code Conflict
Compliance conflicts with applicable building, plumbing, life safety or other codes
(e.g., combining 2 toilet stalls to create an accessible stall will violate plumbing code’s
required fixture count)
Technical Infeasibility
![Page 52: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
52
• Case-by-case determination
• Based on existing constraints/ conditions, scope of work
• Relative to scope of work; where renovation = more extensive, technical infeasibility = less likely
Technical Infeasibility
![Page 53: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
53

58
Path of Travel
Path of travel is required to the extent that it is not “disproportionate” to the
project cost (more than 20%)
Compliance required up to the 20% limit
![Page 59: Overview of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012423/617798e43ad5440a885492e1/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
59
Path of TravelRecommended prioritization where
20% cap reached :
1. Entrance
2. Route connecting primary function area
3. Restrooms
4. Phone
