Figure F3.2 Required circulation spaces

Figure F3.2A—Turning space, each side of the pan and in front of the pan A diagram showing the turning space needed in an accessible adult change facility near a toilet pan as outlined in subclause F3.2(2) and the notes to Figures F3.2A, F3.2B and F3.2C. Figure F3.2B—Turning space and circulation space for a washbasin A diagram showing the turning space needed in an accessible adult change facility near a washbasin as outlined in subclause F3.2(2) and the notes to Figures F3.2A, F3.2B and F3.2C. Figure F3.2C—Turning space and circulation space for changing rails A diagram showing the turning space needed in an accessible adult change facility near the changing rails as outlined in subclause F3.2(2) and the notes to Figures F3.2A, F3.2B and F3.2C.

Notes to Figures F3.2A, F3.2B and F3.2C:

(a) The Roman numerals shown in Figures F3.2A, F3.2B, and F3.2C indicate the following required circulation spaces:

(i) turning space—a full circle of 1,125 mm radius;

(ii) each side of the pan—900 mm (measured from each edge of the pan);

(iii) in front of the pan—2,350 mm (measured from the wall behind the pan, and therefore includes the pan itself);

(iv) for a washbasin—the width of the basin (450 mm) increasing to a width of 1,350 mm measured at a distance of 750 mm out from the wall against which the washbasin is mounted then continuing at that width for a further 800 mm (to a total of 1,550 mm out from the wall);

(v) for changing rails—the width of the rails increased to a width of 1,350 mm at a distance of 750 mm out from the wall to which the rails are fixed then continuing at that width for a further 800 mm (to a total of 1,550 mm out from the wall).

(b) All required circulation spaces must extend for a minimum height of 2,000 mm above finished floor level.

(c) Required circulation spaces may be overlapped.

(d) The floor surface must have a slip resistance classification of not less than R10 or P3 when tested in accordance with AS 4586.
