CHILD ACCESSIBILITY
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Facilities will be accessible in accordance
with TI 800-01 and 36 CFR 1191, Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) Accessibility Guidelines for
Buildings and Facilities.
Ensure one access and egress point for a furnished
play event meets accessibility. Ensure all children
are accommodated on the playground in a 'play for
all' socialization skill development environment.
When children with disabilities are allowed to
choose play events, they are more eager to learn the
skills necessary to participate.
**************************************************************************
The accessibility requirement in accordance with ASTM F 1487 includes the
following: When the play event use zone consists of a protective surfacing
rated as unaccessible, at least one accessible route shall be provided from
the use zone perimeter to the play event. When there is more than one of
the same play activity provided, only one shall meet accessibility
requirements i.e.: one swing seat or one spring rocking play event). When
the access and egress points are not the same for a play event, an
accessible route shall be provided to both. The accessible route shall
access all accessible play events and elements. The protective surfacings
that meet accessibility are synthetic surfacing and engineered wood fiber
per ASTM E 1912. When the accessible surface is within the use zone, it
shall meet the requirements of paragraph CHILD SAFETY
1.4
SUBMITTALS
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Submittals must be limited to those necessary
for adequate quality control. The importance of an
item in the project should be one of the primary
factors in determining if a submittal for the item
should be required.
A "G" following a submittal item indicates that the
submittal requires Government approval. Some
submittals are already marked with a "G". Only
delete an existing "G" if the submittal item is not
complex and can be reviewed through the Contractor's
Quality Control system. Only add a "G" if the
submittal is sufficiently important or complex in
context of the project.
For submittals requiring Government approval on Army
projects, a code of up to three characters within
the submittal tags may be used following the "G"
designation to indicate the approving authority.
Codes for Army projects using the Resident
Management System (RMS) are: "AE" for
Architect-Engineer; "DO" for District Office
(Engineering Division or other organization in the
District Office); "AO" for Area Office; "RO" for
