Sections 4.2 Through 4.35. Sections 4.2 through 4.35 contain the technical specifications for
elements and spaces required to be accessible by the scoping provisions
(sections 4.1 through 4.1.7) and special application sections (sections
5 through 10). The technical specifications are the same as the 1980
version of ANSI A117.1 standard, except as noted in the text by italics.
Sections 5 Through 9.
These are special application sections and contain additional
requirements for restaurants and cafeterias, medical care facilities,
business and mercantile facilities, libraries, and transient lodging.
For example, at least 5 percent, but not less than one, of the fixed
tables in a restaurant must be accessible.
In section 7, Business and Mercantile, paragraph 7.2 (Sales and
Service Counters, Teller Windows, Information Counters) has been revised
to provide greater flexibility in new construction than did the proposed
rule. At least one of each type of sales or service counter where a cash
register is located shall be made accessible. Accessible counters shall
be dispersed throughout the facility. At counters such as bank teller
windows or ticketing counters, alternative methods of compliance are
permitted. A public accommodation may lower a portion of the counter,
provide an auxiliary counter, or provide equivalent facilitation through
such means as installing a folding shelf on the front of the counter at
an accessible height to provide a work surface for a person using a
wheelchair.
