Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Walkway Slip-Resistance Research at the National Bureau of Standards The National Safety Council reports that slips and falls are the major building-related cause of accidental death and injury In 1976, over 8 million falls resulted in million disabling injuries and deaths. The victims are primarily the young and the old, with more serious consequences for the elderly. Children under 15 (approximately 30% of the u.s. Population) suffered nearly half of the disabling injuries. Adults over 65 (approximately 10% of the u.s. Population) experienced 20% of the fatalities. In more than half of the falls, slippery surfaces were identified as a major contributing factor. Existing standards and codes for walkway surfaces are generally vague and difficult to enforce since they lack quantitative definition of acceptable levels of slip-resistance.

(1) Each facility or part of a facility constructed by, on behalf of, or for the use of a public entity shall be designed and constructed in such manner that the facility or part of the facility is readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities, if the construction was commenced after January 26, 1992. (2) Exception for structural impracticability. (i) Full compliance with the requirements of this section is not required where a public entity can demonstrate that it is structurally impracticable to meet the requirements. Full compliance will be considered structurally impracticable only in those rare circumstances when the unique characteristics of terrain prevent the incorporation of accessibility features. (ii) If full compliance with this section would be structurally impracticable, compliance with this section is required to the extent that it is not structurally impracticable. In that case, any portion of the facility that can be made accessible shall be made accessible to the extent that it is not structurally impracticable. (iii) If providing accessibility in conformance with this section to individuals with certain disabilities (e.g., those who use wheelchairs) would be structurally impracticable, accessibility shall nonetheless be ensured to persons with other types of disabilities, (e.g., those who use crutches or who have sight, hearing, or mental impairments) in accordance with this section.
