See 806.2 &\; 806.2 Advisory.\n \n \n Wh at should the overall height of a mattress be in an accessible room?\n \n \n If there is a soaking/spa tub in an accessible room that also has a rol l-in shower\, what are the requirements for height of tub\, clearances\, g rab bars\, etc. at the tub?\n \n \n What signage is required for hotel\, a nd what guest rooms must have this signage?\n \n \n Why is there NO standa rd bed heights rooms only with roll in shower ? @Hotels &\; motels- Onl y rooms with A roll in showers ? Hilton had a newly remodeled room bed was 37”High -very concerned. My son wheelchair an roll in shower chair At 3 2” high - A wheelchair person could traveling alone Would not be able to get in to bed . This has been a common problem with hotels As we have tra veled for 20 yrs. Why is no guidelines for Bed heights Only for rooms with roll in shower that’s is truly For handicap.\n \n \n Is there a height requirement for the bed measured from the floor to the top of the mattress ?\n \n \n What about accessible Homeless shelters\, ie stairs\, bunk beds\ , service animals\, shower areas? Many times Social Service Agencies don ’t always take that in consideration.\n \n \n Are housing like Air b’ B have the same responsibilities as hotels? And what ate there responsibil ities?\n \n \n What approach is to be used when you cannot make an accessi ble route to a guest room due to terrain and other existing conditions?\n \n \n In order to provide a two bedroom\, is it permissible to use a small er bed in a two bed ADA room (i.e two double beds\, rather than two queens )\, when other double rooms have two queens due to the size of the room no t being large enough?\n \n \n Is there a minimum width for transaction cou nter?\n \n \n Do the accessible beds\, lockers &\; tables (for dining) have to be designated with an ISA symbol? If not\, are they required to be identified with other signs?\n \n \n Will the PowerPoint presentation be available for download prior to webinar? I would like a copy so that I can annotate slides during the presentation.\n \n \n Why are there no ADA sta ndards regarding height requirements under a bed to accommodate a Hoyer Li ft? Most hotels/motels have solid frames under the beds. This includes the ADA rooms.\n \n \n Battery\n \n \n Can you address whether private vacati on rentals fall within the definition of public accommodation under the AD A with respect to service dog access.\n \n \n Hotel Bed Heights are from 2 4 inches to 32 inches Above the Finished floor. As a barrier free consulta nt and knowing that this will not work for someone with mobility impairmen t (reference bench seat heights or toilet seat heights 17 to 19 inches)\, am I legally responsible to ask the interior designer\, architect\, or tra nsient lodging owner to provide access to and make the bed usable by an in dividual with a disability so they can stay at the hotel? I have at time l et the design and property owner team know that the high beds are not usab le. I have been told Beds are not covered therefore they do not need to co mply.\n \n \n Are standard deep hotel lavatories in ADA rooms allowed to b e installed so the beginning of the bowl (where you can place your face at ) is 3 to 6 inches from the leading edge of the vanity counter? I am seein g this done more to provide the knee clearance. Unfortunately it drastical ly affects the primary use of the sink bowl. Individuals in wheelchairs ca nnot all bend torso forward and sitting in a chair makes it more difficult to find this type of lavatory installation usable for teeth brushing\, sh aving\, face washing\, the water ends up in your lap. Is there a maximum d istance for the placement of the leading edge of a sink bowl in a counter? Wall hung lavatories leading edges of bowls are 1 to 2 inches away from t he rim edge.\n \n \n If the first occupancy of an existing building is com pleted prior to March 1991 and more than 50% is gutted leaving only load b earing construction\, is new construction required to comply to FFHA? I un derstand it is required to comply with the IBC or latest local building co de and ADA 2010 at public accommodations\, but unsure if it's required to comply with FFHA as well. Thank you.\n \n \n Is there any way a hotel can be required to have the bed mattress and box spring put on a platform that can be removed and the mattress and box spring placed directly on the flo or so as to lower the total bed height for direct wheelchair transfer rath er than on a fixed in place platform which makes the mattress too high for such a transfer?\n \n \n Please clarify when and what requirements must b e met for small properties (5 or 6 rooms). If one of the rooms is separate from the main building\, does it count towards the total number of rooms or is it a separate facility?\n \n \n What upgrade requirements must be me t if a small property has been in use for 30+ years (prior to ADA requirem ents)?\n \n\n\nSession Questions\n\nThis session is accepting questions fr om registered users.
