Mandatory spatial clearances for wheelchair-accessible drinking fountains include elevation and plan views. The elevation view specifies a minimum knee clearance of 27 inches high and 8 inches deep at the top, extending to 16 inches deep at the base. A minimum toe clearance of 9 inches high and 6 inches deep is required at the floor level. The plan view establishes a minimum width of 30 inches for the clear floor space and a depth of 17 to 25 inches for the fountain projection. Equipment is permitted only within the designated shaded area to ensure unobstructed access for users.
