Provisions for Individuals with Disabilities

DOE-STD-1088-95

7.5 Provisions for Individuals with Disabilities

Relocatable structures that may be used by individuals with disabilities should be designed in

accordance with the criteria contained in the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility

Guidelines (ADAAG).

7.6 Sleeping Facilities

Sleeping areas should not be permitted in relocatable structures unless they are specifically

designed for this purpose. Such facilities should conform with the provisions of NFPA 101,

including the requirements for two remote means of egress and for a smoke detection system that

alarms in the facility and is interconnected with the site fire alarm/signalling system.

7.7 Remote Facilities

Where fire protection criteria of this Standard cannot be feasibly met because the relocatable

structure is in a remote location, alternate fire protection features may be provided as determined

by the AHJ.

7.8 Portable Heat Producing Devices

Coffee pots, hot plates, ovens, and similar items producing heat or capable of overheating should

be listed by a nationally recognized independent testing agency. All such devices or the

receptacles into which they are plugged should feature a light or other equivalent means to

indicate when the appliance is energized.
