In this program, we'll discuss accessibility and ADA compliance in restroom design. We'll identify who needs accessibility in the restroom. We'll also review the principles of universal design as well as proper placement of fixtures and accessories and clearances in accordance with code and ADA guidelines and requirements to ensure accessibility for all.
Learning Objectives:
Explain the principles of accessibility and universal design
Apply regulations governing accessibility in the toilet room
Apply accessible design to toilet room components
Use fixture and accessory selection knowledge to improve toilet room accessibility for all users.
Group Registration
How can we register a group of people attending the event from a single location that work with the same organization?
One person from the organization needs to register for each location.
At the time of the presentation, the webinar facilitator will ask each designated registrant of each group to record the roll call of those in attendance.
Our webinar provider will register each attendee with AIA National; however the roll call list needs to include each attendee's --
first and last name,
email address,
AIA Number and
Phone number is optional. The webinar provider may need to contact them if they encounter any problems with registration or email address.
Your designated registrant needs to email the roll call list within 24 hours to our webinar provider; whose email address will be given at the end of the session.
An overview of the types and use of emergency wash equipment, latest ANSI standards & requirements that affect design, and tepid water requirements for emergency equipment.
Learning Objectives:
Explain the importance of emergency eyewash and shower equipment in settings where users are exposed to hazardous substances.
Comply with regulations and design best practices for locating and specifying emergency eyewash and shower equipment
Incorporate emergency eyewash and shower equipment in workplace and teaching environments
Comply with tepid water requirements for emergency fixtures by incorporating a tepid water solution

BIM Level-Of-Development (LOD) was highlighted within several presentations. Those presentations providing LOD are bold-faced in the list below. I admit, I haven't listened to all the presentations on this list --as they were released 2 weeks ago. I'll update the boldfaced list of LOD presentations once I review them all.
