- Abstract:This European Standard (EN) describes basic, common minimum functional requirements and recommendations for an accessible and usable built environment, following the Design for All/Universal design principles . The standard specifies what is necessary to align with these principles which will facilitate equitable and safe use for a wide range of users.The requirements and recommendations are applicable to across the full spectrum of the built environment and can be used as criteria for awarding public contracts (in support of the Public Procurement Directives).These functional accessibility and usability requirements are specifically applicable to the design, construction, refurbishment or adaptation, and maintenance of public or public-use environments including external pedestrian and urban areas.NOTE 1 Design for All and Universal Design share a similar inclusive design philosophy. "Universal design" means the design of products, environments, programmes and services to be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design. "Universal design" shall not exclude assistive devices for particular groups of persons with disabilities where this is needed.NOTE 2 Terms such as "design for all", "universal design", "accessible design", "barrier-free design", "inclusive design" and "transgenerational design" are often used interchangeably with the same meaning.
