DESCRIPTION:ADA Shop Talk Episode 038 - How Do You Measure The 36" x 36" IS
 A? Nursing Home Canopy And Is Accessibility Required For Fuel Island Pumps
 ?\n\nOctober 27\, 2017\n\nQuestions answered this episode:\n\nSteve - We r
 eceived an inspection from a certified CASp inspector on one of our constr
 uction projects. In his punchlist report\, he stated that the ISA within t
 he accessible parking space was incorrectly painted\, even though the over
 all dimension is 36"x36". The ISA is in the center of a blue background an
 d has a white border. Since the outside of the white border defines the 36
 "x36" dimension\, the blue background is somewhat small then 36"x36". The 
 CASp inspector cited CBC 11B-502.6.4.1 that states the ISA shall appear "i
 n white on a blue background a minimum of 36 inches wide by 36 inches high
 ." I have seen this ISA on a blue background and surrounded by a white bor
 der in many construction documents and installed in many locations. Have y
 ou heard of this dispute in your work? Is the ISA on a blue background and
  surrounded by a white border an acceptable portrayal of the ISA pavement 
 marking for an accessible parking space? Does this ISA meet the intent of 
 the CBC\, but perhaps not the strict letter of the CBC?\n\nMegan -  Quest
 ion regarding fuel islands at a mini-mart. Are they required to comply? If
  so\, Are they required to have an accessible route to the island from the
  store? Are there reach range requirements for the transaction keypad? Doe
 s the keypad have the same requirements as any transaction pad or is it no
 w exempt? What are the rules for supplying assistance to the patrons? If t
 hey have assistance\, do all these requirements go away? Can the store hav
 e hours for the assistance? Also\, how about the tire inflation area? Does
  that have to have an accessible route to it\, level area around it? Does 
 reach range apply? Is anything from the access board on this?\n\nJeff - An
  existing nursing home of I.2 Occupancy considered as a long-term care med
 ical facility in California proposed a major alteration to add more patien
 t rooms without increasing the floor area. The adjusted construction cost 
 exceeds the current valuation threshold. OSHPD directed AHJ (local buildin
 g department) to review only the path of travel from the accessible parkin
 g to the main entrance\; whereas the rest of scope was reviewed by OSHPD. 
 As the plan examiner for the AHJ\, I applied Section 11B-206.4.10 to this 
 project and request for weather protection as part of compliance to provid
 e accessible entrance under Section 11B-202.4. My request was overturned b
 y OSHPD because it is their interpretation that weather protection require
 ment only applies to new building and addition\, not alteration. I respect
  their decision but I do not understand the code basis behind such interpr
 etation. When it comes to compliance with the path of travel requirements\
 , how do you distinguish between addition and alteration? Can you clarify?
  Had this project not certified by OSHPD\, how would you enforce the path 
 of travel requirement? this.\n\nMalvin -  Quick question\, my colleague i
 s working on a housing project for housing graduate students\, 600 units t
 otal. They’re looking at a mailbox configuration. My question is in putt
 ing all mailboxes in reach ranges\, 15” – 48”\, Can we start at 24
 ” AFF and go up to 72” AFF and ensure that mailboxes can be assigned a
 s needed at convenient heights? I would think so\, but I’d appreciate yo
 ur opinions.\n
