The provided handicapped parking space detail does not appear to match what is shown on the plan. The plan appears to show a 8'-6" parking space with a 5'-0" access aisle. Per ICC A117.1-2009 502.2 a van accessible space with and access aisle is required to be 16'-0" wide. Either an 8'-0" vehicle parking space and a 8'-0" access aisle or a 11'-0" vehicle parking space and a 5'-0" access aisle. Clearly demonstrate on the plan that the requirement is met. Also the provided detail should match what is shown on the plan. Show that all running and cross slopes meet the requirement of ICC A117.1-2009 403.3 and IBC 107.2.1 2. Provide running slope directional arrows, running slope percentages, cross slope directional arrows and cross slope percentages for all surfaces along the required accessible route from the proposed building entrance to the sidewalk located in the right-of-way and to the accessible vehicle parking space. See ICC A117.1-2009 403.3 and IBC 107.2.1. 3. The proposed ramp called out under detail 3 does not appear to meet the running slope requirements. See ICC A117.1-2009 403.3. 4. It does not appear that the proposed sidewalk connects to the existing sidewalk located in the right-of-way along 8th Avenue. See TSM 7-01.4.1.A. 5. Accessible ramps are required at the new curb returns. |
