[2010 ADAS] Advisory 213.3.1 Toilet Compartments. A toilet compartment is a partitioned space that is located within a toilet room, and that normally contains no more than one water closet. A toilet compartment may also contain a lavatory. A lavatory is a sink provided for hand washing. Full-height partitions and door assemblies can comprise toilet compartments where the minimum required spaces are provided within the compartment.
ETA Editor’s Note:
The 2016 CBC includes scoping requirements for toilet compartments based on the total number of compartments and urinals provided. The CBC is more inclusive and will require more accessible toilet compartments in larger toilet rooms.
