Scope of Technical Booklet R

The scope of this Technical Booklet is to give provisions for generic solutions to the more common building scenarios to enable people to – (a) get access to a building; (b) get into a building; (c) move around all floors of a building; and (d) get access to and use the facilities (toilets, changing rooms, showers etc.) that are provided in a building. The methods and standards within this Technical Booklet relate, in the main, but not exclusively, to the provision of design features and sufficient space, to make it possible for people with disabilities to independently access and use a building.
