wheclctir users nsed a 30 in (760 mm) clear opening 

wkttfrfor doorways,g.s tes,andrtre fike, whentfrelaaer

unfamifiir with a bddhg if competing trsffii is hea..y, 

if sudien or frequent movenrenL5 are needed, or if the 

wheelchair must be tumcd at an opening, then greater 

C!ea. widths are IKUM. FCIr most tition~ ~ ~ddi. 

tion of an inch of leeway on *= tide ~ ~“~le”~ 

Thus, a minimum clear width of 32 in (815 mm) till 

provide adequate clearance However, when an open. 

ing or a restriction in a passageway is mom than 24 in 

(610 mm) long, it is ●ssentially a passageway and 

must be at least 36 in (915 mm) wide 

(2) Space Requirements for Us-s of Walking Aids. 

Although people who use walking aids can rmmmve.r 

Lhrough c!ear width openings of 32 in (815 mm), they 

need 35 in (915 mm) wide frassagewap and wak fOr 

comfortable gaits, Crutch tips, orlen ~endhg down at 

a wide angle, are a hc,ard in narrow passageways 

where they might not be seen ty other pedestr@s 

Thus, the 36 in (915 mm) witi provtdes a safety 

allowance both for the disabled person and for others 

(3) Space Requirements for Passing. AblAo@sd 

r-Pie in tinter clothing, walhng shaight ahead with 

arms stinging, need 32 in (815 mm) of width, which 

includes 2 in (50 mm) on either side for sway, and 

another 1 in (25 mm) to!-erance on either tide for 

clearing nearby objects or other pedestrians. Atmost all 

wire.?lchdr users and those who use walking aids can 

also mamge within rhii 32 in (815 mm) tidth for 

short dktances Thus, two streams of traffic can pass 

in 64 in (1625 mm) in a comfortable flow. Si inches 

(1525 mm) provide a minimum width for a somewtmt 

more restricted flow. If the dear width is less the.n 60 

in (1 525 mm), two wheelchair users till not be able to 

pass but will have to seek a wider place for passing. 

Forty.eight inches (1220 mm) is the minimum width 

needed for an ambulatory person to pass a 

nonambulatoty or semiambulatory person. Withk thk 

48 in (1220 mm) width, the ambulatory person will 

have to twist to pass o wheelchair user, a person with a

till be I& tseway for swaying or missteps (see Fig,

A4.23 Wheelchair Turning Space. This standard 

w-if= a m~tmup space of 60 in (1525 mm) 

dmrmeter for a pivoting lSO.degree turn of a 

*eel*air. Thii space is usualfy satisfactory for turn. 

ing around. but many people will not be able to turn 

Mhout repeated tries and bumping into smrounding 

objects T@ space shown in Fg. A2 will allow most 

tieelctilr users to complete U.turns without difficul~. 

A4.24 Ckar Floor or Ground Space for 

Wheekbi= The wheelchair and user shown in Fig. 

A3 represent typical dimensions for a large adult male. 

The space requirements in this standard are based 

upon maneuvering clearances that will accommodate 

most larger wheelchairs Fq. ,43 provides a uniform 

reference for design not covered by this standard. 

A4.2.5 & A4.2.6 Rasch Reach ranges for Prsorts 

seated in wheelchair may be furrher clarified by Fig.

(1) Travel DMances Many disabled people can 

move at only very slow speeds for many, traveling 200 

ft (61 m) could take about 2 minutes This assumes a 

mte of about 1.5 ft/s (455 mm/s) on Ievcl ground. It 

also assumes that the traveler would move continuous. 

Iy. However, on tips over 100 ft (30 m), disabled 

people are apt to rest ‘frequently, which substantially 

increases their trip times, Resting periods of 2 minutes 

for every 100 ft (30 m) can be used to estimate travel 

times for people with severely limited stamina. [“
