ICC A117.1-2017 Field Verification Manual is a practical, inspection-oriented guide to the Standard for Accessible and Usable Buildings, written for professionals who must verify compliance in the field-not just design it on paper.

While ICC A117.1-2017 defines technical accessibility requirements, this manual addresses the verification gap between compliant construction documents and non-compliant field installations. It translates the standard into measurable, finish-condition criteria that reflect how accessibility is actually reviewed during inspections, plan review, and post-construction evaluations.

This book is not a commentary on intent, history, or theory. It is a field-side companion focused on physical measurability, construction tolerances, and documentation practices that support defensible compliance determinations.

Written in a neutral, inspection-focused tone, the manual prioritizes where measurements are taken, how compliance is commonly lost during construction, and what inspectors typically verify before approving work.


What This Manual Provides
  • A practical interpretation of ICC A117.1-2017 as applied in real-world field conditions

  • Verification-first explanations of accessibility requirements based on physical measurement, not design intent

  • Clear guidance on finish-to-finish dimensions, encroachments, and construction tolerances

  • Identification of high-risk and "silent" failures that frequently lead to failed inspections or remediation

  • Inspection-ready documentation guidance, including what measurements and observations should be recorded


Key Features
  • Field Verification Focus
    Each requirement is analyzed through the lens of on-site measurement, identifying exactly what is checked and how it is typically verified.

  • Construction Tolerance Awareness
    Addresses dimensional drift caused by finishes, base, trim, hardware projection, and slope variation.

  • Inspection-Oriented Organization
    Content is structured to mirror how accessibility is reviewed during inspections and plan review, not how standards are written.

  • Documentation for Compliance Defense
    Emphasizes measurable criteria and record-keeping that support defensible compliance determinations.

  • No Legal or Design Commentary
    The manual does not provide legal advice, interpret case law, or offer design alternatives. It focuses strictly on technical compliance verification.
