IR-11B-10 SCOPING AND PATH OF TRAVEL IMPROVEMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR FACILITY ALTERATION, ADDITION AND STRUCTURAL REPAIR PROJECTS (Revised 10/14/25)

This IR is intended for use by DSA staff and by design professionals to promote statewide consistency for review and approval of plans and specifications as well as construction oversight of projects within the jurisdiction of DSA, which includes State of California public schools (K-12), community colleges and state-owned or state-leased essential services buildings. This IR indicates an acceptable method for achieving compliance with applicable codes and regulations, although other methods proposed by design professionals may be considered by DSA.

This IR is subject to revision at any time. Please check DSA’s website for currently effective IRs. Only IRs listed on the webpage at www.dgs.ca.gov/dsa/publications at the time of the project application submittal to DSA are considered applicable.

5.2 Projects with Adjusted Construction Cost Above the Valuation Threshold

Projects with an adjusted construction cost above the valuation threshold must provide full compliance of the path of travel elements with current accessibility requirements. CBC Section 11B-202.4, Exception 8 addresses projects where the cost of full compliance of path of travel improvements is disproportionate to the adjusted construction cost and may be an unreasonable hardship. See DSA PR 24-04 for additional information.
