R320.1.1

Section R320.1.1 is titled 'Guestrooms' and covers requirements for accessibility. A cross-reference to another code which covers details of accessible construction, which a dwelling with guestrooms must comply with, and clarification on how to apply the cross-referenced code to guestrooms is established. The purpose of this section is to mandate accessible features where a dwelling contains guestrooms. This section has an exception which exempts the requirements for accessibility where the ownership arrangement and number of guestrooms meet specific criteria. The purpose of this exception is to clarify that certain arrangements are allowed without accessible features.

The model shows a simple grayscale Victorian-style dwelling which contains 6 guestrooms and which has a wheelchair lift on the exterior to provide an accessible entrance.
