What guidelines govern outdoor bar stool dimensions for public accessibility?
When designing outdoor spaces with bar stools, ensuring public accessibility is crucial. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) provides key guidelines for outdoor bar stool dimensions to accommodate all users. Typically, accessible seating should have a seat height between 28-34 inches (71-86 cm) with adequate knee clearance (at least 27 inches high and 30 inches wide). The stool should also include back support or armrests for stability. Additionally, spacing between stools (minimum 36 inches) and non-slip surfaces are essential for safety. Always consult local regulations to ensure compliance with accessibility standards in public areas.
