PD CEN/TR 15913:2009 CEN/TR 15913:2009 (E) 4 Introduction This Technical Report has been prepared by CEN/TC 315 in order to establish important criteria for people with special needs to be

13、 considered when a spectator viewing area is designed. PD CEN/TR 15913:2009 CEN/TR 15913:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This Technical Report gives certain design solutions on how a spectator viewing area should be designed in order to cover people with disabilities and special needs. 2 Viewing Areas New and ex

14、isting stands should need to provide accessible viewing areas to all disability groups, including ambulant disabled spectators. These areas should be in adequate numbers located around the spectator facility and should be of appropriate viewing quality, to give all spectators a suitable range of vie

15、wing options. Provision and standards should be reviewed by management, disabled spectators and local disability groups on a regular basis. 2.1 Number of Spaces Table 1 gives the appropriate guidance on the minimum acceptable scale of provision of wheelchair spaces in newly constructed stands. Where

16、 permanent or removable seating is provided, allowance should be made for disabled spectators to have a choice of seating at spectator events. They should also be able to have access to, and the use of, all of the facilities provided within the stadium. Consultations with local supporters and disabi

17、lity groups should determine the appropriate number of spaces which may, in some instances, exceed the recommended criteria herein specified. Table 1 Recommended provision of wheelchair spaces at a newly constructed spectator facility Seated capacity of stand or stadium Number of wheelchair spaces U

18、nder 10,000 Minimum of 6 or 1 in 100 of seated capacity (whichever is greater) 10,000 to 20,000 100 plus 5 per 1,000 above 10,000 20,000 to 40,000 150 plus 3 per 1,000 above 20,000 40,000 or more 210 plus 2 per 1,000 above 40,000 NOTE 1 Refer also to national legislation or equivalent.

19、rmative Annex A For existing stands, it is recommended that management provide spaces for people who use wheelchairs. When considering the number of spaces, service providers will need to demonstrate that adequate provision should be made in their Access Statement or Strategy. It is recommended that

20、 Table 1 is applied to existing stands, but where this is impracticable it should be necessary to consult with supporters and local disability groups over compensatory provision elsewhere in the stadium and this may result in a requirement for extra spaces in new stands. 2.2 Location of Viewing Area

21、s Good practice highlights the preference for providing wheelchair users with “a range of vantage points”. It is therefore recommended that areas for disabled spectators should, where possible, be dispersed throughout the spectator facility to provide a variety of locations at different levels and f

22、or various prices. When sitting viewing areas, it is recommended that: PD CEN/TR 15913:2009 CEN/TR 15913:2009 (E) 6 Management will need to demonstrate through an access audit, a strategy for the provision of adequately dispersed viewing areas and support accommodation. Viewing areas should be acces

23、sible to and used independently by spectators with disabilities with the minimum of assistance. Where appropriate, designated viewing areas should be provided for both home and visiting spectators. Management should make available clear advice on the location of disabled facilities and wheelchair sp

24、aces to away spectators who may be visiting the spectator facility for the first time. Spectators who use wheelchairs or other similar devices should not be located in areas that may make them feel isolated from spectators in the main body of the stand. Access should be available to different areas

25、of a seating deck for ambulant disabled. Designated viewing areas should be included in any family areas within a spectator facility. 2.3 Quality of Viewing Spaces Provisions relating to spectator seating are as follows: Wheelchair users should be able to manoeuvre easily to a space that allows them

26、 a clear view of the event. Wheelchair users should be provided with a choice of sitting next to a disabled or non disabled companion. Some seats should be located so that an assistance/guide dog can accompany its owner and rest in front of, or under, the seat. Prefabricated, temporary or demountabl

27、e stands all come under the same criteria as conventional construction and need to satisfy the same criteria for numbers, dispersal and viewing quality for disabled spectators. If these criteria cannot be achieved within the stand, alternative and satisfactory provisions may be acceptable. Although

28、an individual wheelchair place can be provided by a clear space with a width of at least 900mm and a depth of at least 1400mm, it is recommended that each designated place should ideally measure 1400mm x 1400mm to allow space for one helper per wheelchair space to sit alongside in a fixed or removab

29、le seat. Spaces shall be marked (outlined) and equipped with the international symbol. Spectators using electrically powered wheelchairs may need a socket or equivalent electrical device to charge a flat battery. Refer also to national legislation or equivalent. See also informative Annex A. NOTE 1

30、Designated wheelchair spaces may be those which are kept clear or which can be easily provided by removing seats (see Section Flexible viewing areas). Some spaces should be provided in pairs, with standard seating on at least one side. NOTE 2 Designers are advised to pursue an enlightened and flexib

31、le approach. 2.4 Viewing Areas for Ambulant Disabled Spectators Although ambulant disabled spectators represent the larger proportion of spectators with disabilities there is no established guidance on the scale of provision, the location of areas or the design of individual viewing PD CEN/TR 15913:

32、2009 CEN/TR 15913:2009 (E) 7 spaces. It is, however, essential that a reasonable approach is taken to determine the quality, numbers and dispersal of seated accommodation to the design standards set out below. Ideally, Table 1 should be used to determine the minimum proportion of seated accommodatio

33、n for ambulant disabled in the whole stadium. Management, access consultants and designers should demonstrate that they have determined the design requirements in their access plan by consultation with local disability groups and disabled supporters. The provision should be reviewed regularly. A rea

34、sonable approach should be taken in existing stands, i.e. it may be appropriate to set aside seats at the end of rows or the front tier or to design entire rows to a higher standard. Each seat should be identified by the management. Ambulant disabled spectators may prefer not to sit in areas intende

35、d primarily for wheelchair users and their helpers. It may also be appropriate to identify areas to be used by some ambulant disabled spectators (and their helpers) which are close to vomitories whilst retaining a choice of viewing positions elsewhere in the stadium. A flexible layout and management

36、 approach will be particularly helpful for spectators with visual impairments and also with assistance dogs. It is recommended that some ambulant disabled seating areas are situated where there are few steps to negotiate, and that some are provided where the rake of the seating tier is not more than

37、 20 degrees. Where the rake is greater, it is advisable to consider the provision of intermittent handrails on radial gangways (or “hand-holds). If seats are fitted with armrests they should be removable, extra width and extra legroom. Management and their designers will need to agree appropriate di

38、mensions with local disability groups. Seating row depth should be available for those who have difficulty in bending their legs (although this may be achieved by the temporary removal of the seat in front, safety barriers may still be required which may affect sightlines). Premium seating rows ofte

39、n provided for Directors etc may be suitable for this purpose. These seats should be easily identified with vandal-proof markings. Wheelchair storage space should also be considered within reasonable distance, for those who prefer to transfer from their wheelchairs to a seat. Consideration should be

40、 given to the care of assistance dogs during a match. Management should ensure that the ticketing system allocates spaces that do not allow dogs to obstruct gangways. Spectators using walking frames, crutches, sticks and canes need room to store their devices closely to them at their seat without ob

41、structing others or reducing passageways. 2.5 Sightlines Sightlines should be such that all spectators have a clear view of the event to the whole of the activity area, unobstructed by persons in front, by roof stanchions or by other obstructions. The provision of areas located around the stadium de

42、signated for spectators in wheelchairs has implications for the sightlines of both disabled spectators and other spectators seated or standing nearby. The following paragraphs and diagrams explain the advantages and disadvantages of various viewing locations, and how sightlines are affected. Sightli

43、nes require particularly careful attention, as some wheelchair users cannot lean forwards or sideways in their seats or turn their heads like non disabled spectators. Nor should it be forgotten that wheelchair users cannot stand up to avoid having their view blocked. The main principle is that any w

44、heelchair seating area should be designed so that spectators in wheelchairs can still see the event when located behind standing accommodation or where people in front may stand up. The quality of sightlines is defined in C values. This is the vertical measurement from the eye level of the person in

45、 front to the sightline from the eye level of the person behind. Calculating C values can be complex PD CEN/TR 15913:2009 CEN/TR 15913:2009 (E) 8 and must be undertaken by a competent person. (In this instance, a competent person must understand C values and the wider issues of viewing quality). Car

46、e should be taken in considering the average eye level height of a person using a wheelchair, which is 1.15m. The assumed height of a person standing in front is 1.8m. Although sitting positions in wheelchairs vary considerably, it is recommended that the average position could be measured in line a

47、bove the centre point of the wheels. It is generally acknowledged that an acceptable viewing standard is obtained with a C value of 90mm or above for all new stands. Only under exceptional circumstances can a C value of less than 90mm be considered acceptable e.g. where the recommended maximum viewi

48、ng distance to any part of the activity area may be exceeded. It is also acknowledged that at exciting moments during an event some seated spectators will stand. This can affect the quality of view of those in wheelchair spaces behind. NOTE 1 For further information on how to calculate sightlines an
