Abstract:
The lecture illustrates the current legislative and normative framework at national and regional level on accessibility of public and private spaces, structures and services. After an in-depth analysis of the concepts of architectural barriers and accessibility and the related glossary (Barrier-free design, Inclusive Design, Universal Design, Design for All, etc.), the lecture explains the issues and the implications on the design process of the accessibility legislation: in particular, DPR 503/1996 (related to public buildings, spaces and services); DM 236/1989 (connected to accessibility, visitability and adaptability of private buildings and public housing, that has become the technical normative reference at national level, for all interventions); law 6/1989 of Region Lombardia and finally those articles of DPR 380/2001 (the main law in the construction field) that have an influence on accessibility.
