1. PART THREE Current LAW And 2010 Standard

2. Currently TBR Uses:IBC 2006/ANSI 2003 AND 1991 ADAAG WHEN MORE STRINGENT

3. 2010 STANDARD

5. The 2010 Standard mirrors the ANSI text, details and numbering system. Much of the new requirements in the 2010 Standard were already required in ANSI 2003. There are still slight differences in many sections so careful sections and highlighting of differences is recommended.

6. GUIDELINES BACKGROUND • Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) 1990 • The Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) 1968

8. Architectural Barriers Act 1968

9. 2010 Standard Combines both ADA and ABA scoping into one code book with a technical requirements section referenced by both.

10. Under newly updated law the old ADAAG will be referred to as 1991 Standard • The new combined ADA ABA will be known as 2010 Standard

11. U.S. ACCESS BOARD An independent Federal Agency Developed and Updated the new 2010 Standard

12. Under 2010 Standards: • Private Entities • Use ADA Scoping • Federal Entities • Use ABA Scoping • State & Local Entities • May use ADA OR ABA Scoping • All Jurisdictions • Use Chapters 3-10 for Technical Requirements

13. 2010 STANDARD EFFECTIVE DATES - DOJ • These final rules will take effect March 15, 2011. Compliance with the 2010 Standards for Accessible Design is permitted as of September 15, 2010, but not required until March 15, 2012. The Department has prepared fact sheets identifying the major changes in the rules.

14. This means TBR designers may begin using the 2010 standards March 15, 2011 but are required to on all projects pulling permits after March 15, 2012.

15. For Accessibility Requirements From now until March 15 , 2011 use the current TBR code - IBC Chapter 11 with ANSI 2003. After March 15, 2011 use the 2010 Standard for projects designed for TBR
