Ada sink depth side approach.

The 2010 ada and 2009 ansi mandates that an operable part of an accessible element must be reachable either through a forward approach or a side approach. Sometimes the standards provide figures that can be confusing when it comes to dimensions and what the dimensions refer to. Is it the depth of the counter that we care about. If the side reach is over an obstruction the reach and clearances shall be see here under.

Sinks used primarily by children ages 5 and younger shall not be required to provide knee clearance if clear floor space for a parallel approach complying with 4 2 4 is provided. A parallel approach complying with 305 shall be permitted to lavatories and sinks used primarily by children 5 years and younger. The dip of the overflow shall not be considered in determining knee and toe clearances. Knee and toe space is required below drinking fountains lavatories and sinks dining and work surfaces and those sales and service counters that provide a forward approach.

Please come back again later. 4 2 6 side reach if the clear floor space allows parallel approach by a person in a wheelchair the maximum high side reach allowed shall be 54 in 1370 mm and the low side reach shall be no less than 9 in 230 mm above the floor. No more than one bowl of a multi bowl sink shall be required to provide knee and toe clearance complying with 306.
