The U.S. Access Board has released new chapters for its online guide to accessibility standards under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA). The new installments include information about requirements for accessible routes, including doors, ramps, elevators and exits. It also has an animated video on hazards that protruding objects pose to people with vision impairments. The guide covers design requirements for places of public accommodation, commercial facilities and state and local government agencies covered by the ADA.
