Beyond those familiar blue-painted spaces lies a world of precise measurements, thoughtful design, and life-changing accessibility. This course breaks down the 2010 ADA Standards for accessible parking, guiding you through everything from calculating the required number of spaces for different facility types to understanding the critical components that make parking truly accessible for people with visible and invisible disabilities. You'll learn about proper dimensions, access aisle requirements, signage placement, and special provisions for hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, and residential buildings. Through real-world examples of both effective and problematic implementations, you'll gain practical knowledge that makes the difference between merely complying with regulations and creating truly inclusive environments that allow everyone equal access to your facilities.

BJ Dietz Epstein holds a master’s degree in architecture (M.Arch) from Iowa State University. The major emphasis of her studies there was accessibility. Working with Dr. Arvid Osterberg, author of Access for Everyone, she developed training materials for accessibility to teach students, architects, building inspectors, and facilities, planning, and management staff.
 
Ms. Epstein has ten years of experience in the field of accessibility. She currently works for the LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired in San Francisco, as an Accessible Media Specialist. There, she creates audio tactile maps as wayfinding solutions for people who are blind or visually impaired. She also performs accessibility compliance checks for signage, and consults with museums, parks, and businesses to ensure that they go above and beyond for their patrons with disabilities.
 
Ms. Epstein brings a passion for accessibility to her work, as well as the ability to translate from legalese into layman’s terms. She is well versed in the ADA Standards, as well as the California Building Codes pertaining to accessibility. She wants to make accessibility easy to understand and easy to implement.

Accreditation: In order to have an accessible site where parking is provided, people must be able to get to the site first. This means accessible parking is a necessity. This is a common part of the accessibility codes that most design professionals and building inspectors will have to deal with in their everyday work.
