Disclaimer
Every attempt has been made to create accurate reproductions of the Federal Register ADAAG figures. These drawings should only be used for reference. For complete technical standards obtain a copy of the Federal Register listed below.


The files differ from the Federal Register figures in the following ways:
Drawings of people were not reproduced.
Metric equivalencies were not included.
A few additional dimensions were added for clarification.
The ADAAG Standards for Accessible Design were published in the Federal Register / Vol. 56, No. 144 / Friday July 26, 1991 / Part III / 28 CFR Part 36 / Pages 35605 through 35691.
