Subject: Use of portions of the A117.1 (in addition to 2010 ADAAG requirements)
Questions (from various UM Campuses):
Since the IBC and IEBC contain references to ICC A117.1, are we going to adopt or use select sections of this reference standard? Or do we continue to follow the 2010 ADAAG guidelines?
Answer (from UM System):
Due to the use and classification of our facilities, our construction documents will continue to meet the requirements of the 2010 ADAAG.
The 2017 ICC A117.1 will not be adopted in total for CY2022, however, in addition to the 2010 ADAAG requirements, designers shall include the sections listed below for restroom layout details, etc., for all new projects, and projects that are past the SD design phase.
305.3 Clear Floor Space (dimensions enlarged for new construction)
502.11 Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (provides criteria for charging stations)
602.4 Bottle Filling Stations (provides criteria for bottle filling stations)

608.3 Grab Bars (criteria includes provisions for vertical grab bars at accessible roll in showers)
609.4.2 Grab Bars (criteria includes provisions for vertical grab bars at accessible children鈥檚 toilets)
Designers are free to use other sections of this standard that may be applicable to other specific situations, plumbing fixtures, or configurations (example: a hospital toilet room is renovated to install a transfer type shower compartment- follow the criteria shown in section 608.2.1 as necessary)
You will note that many of the requirements listed above are already included in our current day construction document standard details.
