by oneself or others, either purposefully or inadvertently, that may limit or prevent
someone's full participation in their communities.


Barrier: Awareness - ANSWER - A lack of understanding of the extent of social,
health, and economic impacts of disability and of motivation to care and take
action.


Barrier: Education - ANSWER - A lack of appropriate access — whether physical or
attitudinal — to educational experiences and/or training and skills development.


Barrier: Employment - ANSWER - A lack of access to meaningful, relevant, and
economically self-sustaining work.


Barrier: Health - ANSWER - A lack of cures and care that contribute to an individual's
state of well-being in body and/or mind.

, Disability - ANSWER - A broad term that describes a physical condition that may
require consideration to ensure their full participation in the activities of daily living
and community involvement.

and at the open sides of stairs, landings, balconies, mezzanines and ramps. This is
also required where there is a significant drop-off along exterior pathways.


Barrier: Physical - ANSWER - A feature of a site, structure, technology, system,
space or an environment that may prevent or limit someone's ability to fully
participate in that designed environment.


Blended transition - ANSWER - A connection with a slope of 1:20 (5%) or less

travel.

Braille - ANSWER - • A system where raised dots are used to represent letters and
words. Unified English Braille (UEB) is the braille standard for Canada. Note: In the
CSA Standard, unless stated otherwise, "braille" indicates uncontracted braille.
• A system of small raised dots that are read using the fingertips. Braille can
represent everything from words to mathematical symbols to music.
• There are two main types of braille: uncontracted and contracted. Just as sighted
people have shorthand, some people impacted by blindness use a contracted
version of braille that is space-saving and allows for rapid reading and writing. Note
that not all braille readers know contracted braille, so it is not always appropriate in
the built environment.


Building - ANSWER - • A permanent or temporary structure of any size that
accommodates facilities to which people have access. A site accommodating
sanitary facilities may include a toilet block in a public park or shower facilities at a
campsite.
• A temporary building may include portable toilet facilities such as those provided
