California 11B-203.2 and ADA 203.2 both include the exemption from accessibility req's for construction job-site trailers and portable toilets.
But the exemption revolves around the phrase "directly associated with the actual processes of construction."
So CA went and created 11B-201.4 which specifically does require accessibility for Construction Support Facilities.
11B-201.4 Construction support facilities. These requirements shall apply to temporary or permanent construction support facilities for uses and activities not directly associated with the actual processes of construction, including but not limited to offices, meeting rooms, plan rooms, other administrative or support functions. When provided, toilet and bathing facilities serving construction support facilities shall comply with Section 11B-213. When toilet and bathing facilities serving construction support facilities are provided by portable units, at least one of each type shall be accessible and connected to the construction support facilities it serves by an accessible route.
Exception: During construction an accessible route shall not be required between site arrival points or the boundary of the area of construction and the entrance to the construction support facilities if the only means of access between them is a vehicular way not providing pedestrian access.
Question: Do you enforce this provision for job site trailers that include a superintendent's desk, plan table, and general storage?
