CONTENTS: AS1428.1 - 2001 PART 1 - GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ACCESS - BUILDINGS. Sets out minimum requirements for elements of building and related facilities; in particular, access pathways, circulation spaces and fitments to permit access by people with disabilities. A set of transparent overlays of space modules to assist in the design of sanitary facilities is included. The Standard refers only to those requirements for access which are to be regulated under the building code. This Standard claims to meet only basic needs for minimum access.

AS1428.2 - 1992 PART 2 - ENHANCED AND ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS - BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES. The purpose of this Standard is twofold. First, it covers items which are not covered in AS1428.1 (see above); and second it gives enhanced requirements for access, for reference by authorities and other users who wish to provide a greater level of accessibility than the minimum requirements of Part 1. Information in this Standard includes details on the following: Car parking facilities. Water closets (ambulant disabled), urinals, baths symbols, signs and tactile ground surface indicators. Emergency warning systems, lighting, hearing augmentation - listening systems.

AS1428.4 - 1992 PART 4 - TACTILE GROUND SURFACE INDICATORS FOR THE ORIENTATION OF PEOPLE WITH VISUAL IMPAIRMENT.
