Features: With the success of Beijing's bid for the 2008 Olympic Games, Beijing also became the host city for the 2008 Paralympic Games, which means that architectural design concepts for people with disabilities will receive increasing attention in our country. This book is a newly licensed book from the UK architectural publisher, covering design concepts related to stairs, elevators, ramps, corridors, signage, sanitary facilities, fire doors, and residential areas in barrier-free design. Additionally, the book discusses legislation on people with disabilities in Western countries as well as relevant building regulations. The book is rich in content, with a fluent narrative, illustrated with numerous vivid examples, making it highly instructive and reference-worthy for professionals in China.
