Accessibility is a fundamental aspect of building design and safety, ensuring that all individuals, including those with disabilities, can navigate and use spaces safely and efficiently. In fire and life safety engineering, accessibility extends beyond everyday convenience; it is critical in emergency situations, where clear access routes, alarms, and evacuation systems can save lives.
Designing for accessibility requires a detailed understanding of codes, standards, and human factors, including mobility, sensory, and cognitive needs. Properly implemented accessibility measures ensure that buildings are inclusive, functional, and compliant with regulatory requirements, while enhancing overall safety and operational efficiency.
