Existing fire station is adding a second floor (exceeds 3,00 sq ft) over the equipment bay which will accomodate the sleeping and bathing facilities along with the day room, Basically an R-2 occupancy. I think I am correct in that it is an existing building, (the floor is being installed between the existing roof and truck bay floor. The funding grant requires the remodel to comply with ADA.
Question
1. Can a platform lift be installed under ADA to access an area not open to the public?
This would be a Title II facility.
2. Am I correct in allowing a platform lift in leiu of an elevator under the IBC?
IBC 2006 3409.8.3 Platform lifts.
Platform (wheelchair) lifts complying with ICC A117.1 and installed in accordance with ASME A18.1 shall be permitted as a component of an accessible route.
I don't want to miss something on this one.
