Maximum Forward Reach Over an Obstruction

About this detail

Forward reach criteria specify dimensional limits for wheelchair users interacting with building elements and controls over an obstruction. The high forward reach limit establishes a maximum height of 48 inches above the floor, with a minimum clear floor space depth of 48 inches and width of 30 inches. When an obstruction is present, dimension X must be less than 25 inches and dimension Z must be greater than X. If dimension X is less than 20 inches, the maximum height Y is 48 inches; if dimension X is between 20 and 25 inches, the maximum height Y is 44 inches.
