52
ANNEXURE
(Explanatory Notes for Regulation No. 31)
The floor material to guide or to warn the visually impaired persons with a change of colour or material with
conspicuously different texture and easily distinguishable from the rest of the surrounding floor materials is
called guiding or warning floor material. The material with different texture gives audible signals with sensory
warning when a person moves on this surface with walking stick. The guiding/warning floor material is meant
to give the directional effect or warn a person at critical places. This floor material shall be provided in the
following areas :
b) The landing lobby towards the information board, reception, lifts, stair-cases and toilets.
PROPER SIGNAGE:
Appropriate identification of specific facilities within a building for the handicapped persons should be done
with proper signals. Visually impaired persons make use of other senses such as hearing and touch to
compensate for the lack of vision. Whereas visual signals benefit those with hearing disabilities.
Signs should be designed and located so that they are easily legible by suing suitable letter size (not less than
20mm. High) for visually impaired persons, information board in braille should be possible to approach them
closely. To ensure safe walking there should not be any protruding sign which creates obstruction in walking.
Public Address System may also be provided in busy public areas.
The symbols / information's should be in contrasting colour and properly illuminated because people with
limited vision may be able to differentiate amongst primary colours. International symbol mark for wheel chair
as shown below be installed at the lift, toilet, staircase, parking areas etc., that have been provided for the
handicapped.
