RS Means ADA Compliance Pricing Guide
Cost Estimates for the Most Necessary
Modifications for Compliance with ADA Guidelines

2nd Edition

Revised and updated to the new 2004 ADA guidelines, featuring more than 70 of the most commonly needed modifications for ADA compliance—and what they cost.

The most often-asked questions about making a building accessible are: “What do I have to do?” and “How much will it cost?” This new second edition answers both–with professional guidance on the revised 2004 ADA guidelines and cost estimates for the most commonly needed building modifications.

The ADA requirements, cost estimates, illustrations and reference numbers have all been updated. Each of the more than 70 project estimates contains specific dimensions and materials mandated by the ADA, with estimated:

• Material quantities
• Labor-hours
• Total contractor’s charges
• Additional, alternate designs and estimates—to fit almost any site or budget limitations

Easy-to-use location factors for over 900 cities and towns give you accurate costs for your specific area. An additional 3,000 unit prices let you modify an estimate for unique site conditions.

Projects include: installing ramps and walkways, widening doorways, installing/re-fitting elevators, relocating light switches, signage, remodeling bathrooms and kitchens, and many more, including auditoriums, public transportation, and recreational facilities.

With additional guidance on:

• How the 2004 ADA guidelines apply to new construction and remodeling projects.
• Who’s responsible, and how to make any public accommodation accessible.
• How to reduce future maintenance, and avoid “failure to comply” citations.

Means ADA Compliance Pricing Guide helps facility managers, owners, architects, engineers, contractors, interior designers and building users answer the complicated questions of what’s required, when, and how to make sure you comply.
