February 20, 2004—Workplace Law Publishing’s best-selling guide to building accessibility for FMs, architects, and surveyors, has been revised and updated to include the latest changes in legislation, including the provisions of the Building Regulations Part M (accessibility). Disability: Making Buildings Accessible Special Report, Second Edition will help readers to:
- understand the legal requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act and Building Regulations Part M;
- establish what changes need to be made to buildings and how much they will cost;
- avoid the legal risk of legal action when regulations come into force; and
- manage difficulties with historic buildings, site security, and fire safety.
There are highly practical sections on frequently overlooked issues, such as the use of color and contrast, wayfinding and signage, and issues related to the design and management of transport environments. The report also examines issues of fire safety that apply to the needs of disabled persons, including the compromises which may have to be made when considering safe access, egress, and security requirements.
