Building and life safety codes require that facilities provide accessible means of egress so that all people, including those with disabilities, can relocate and evacuate in a timely and safe manner. The 2010 ADA Accessibility Standards and the Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards reference the International Building Code (IBC) for accessible means of egress. The next webinar in the Board's free monthly series will take place November 4 from 1:30 – 3:00 (CT) and will review the minimum technical requirements for accessible means of egress in the IBC, including criteria for emergency evacuation for people with disabilities, evacuation planning, alarms, evacuation routes inside and outside of the building, and signage. An International Code Council representative and Access Board staff will also address frequently asked questions and common sources of confusion about accessible means of egress.
