Test Your ADA IQ

Check your understanding of
The Americans with Disabilities Act

The Americans with Disabilities Act is a complex law, with sometimes confusing technical standards, set forth in the ADA Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG). We specialize in ADA and Accessibility Consulting.

Just for fun, why not check yourself on this short questionnaire. Some recent questions. These questions apply to new construction accessibility standards per ADA Title III for public accommodations, unless noted otherwise.

Short audio answers can be heard by CLICKING on your selection of or after each question, to hear a short sound file. Full answers and useful information can be found by clicking on the answer link. For more explanation, please contact us.

	PREVIOUS QUESTIONS 1-13. TRY THEM.
	SOME MORE QUESTIONS:

All curb ramps now require detectable warnings of specified dimensions on the face of the ramp to assist the vision impaired. or ?
A person does not need to be a user of your facility who has been subjected to discriminated for a complaint about the lack of accessibility to be filed under the ADA. or ?
All push button lavatory faucets, common in public restrooms, are compliant because they do not require gripping, pinching or twisting. or ?
A curb ramp with a maximum slope on the face of 1:12 (8.33%) and a maximum slope of side flares of 1:10 (10%) is always a compliant curb ramp. or ?
A "built-up" or projecting curb ramp with compliant slopes is not allowed. or ?

If you get these correct, chances are you are quite knowledgeable about the technical standards of the ADAAG.

SCORE?

	If you got 4 to 5 out of 5 correct, bravo - you are quite knowledgeable in the ADA.
	If you got 3 correct out of 5, you are probably more knowledgeable than most people.
	2 or less correct out of 5, you are not tuned into what the ADA requires, and if you own or lease space in a building, your facility may not be accessible and compliant with the law.
