Goal of the study

Virtually all building standards have accessibility requirements. This study will show how these requirements can be improved to support the planning and construction of buildings.

Building standards are used by architects, engineers, and construction workers. The project team will propose solutions to help these users better understand accessibility requirements. People with disabilities will test the proposed solutions, such as best practices and guidelines, to ensure they are practical.
