Abstract

In the current architecture, the concept of universal access as a necessity in new architectural projects has been expressed, its outcome has given respectful, healthy, functional and comprehensible access to the disabled in all genres of buildings, especially social interest housing. In this article we analyze the regulations for the accessibility of the paraplegic user in the home of the city of Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico making a great emphasis on the most intimate space of the house, the bathroom. Taking into consideration national accessibility regulations such as: The normative study of the Design and Construction Criteria for Adaptable and Accessible Housing CONAFOVI, and the Manual of Accessibility Technical Standards CDMX and Technical Document of Accessibility for Persons with Disabilities, Blue Manual, UAEM. These documents being valued for their content of technical standards to avoid future architectural barriers, however it was decided to follow the guidelines of the CDMX Accessibility Standards Manual as it is a document endorsed by government institutions and professional associations in order to generate better quality of living spaces for a paraplegic in a wheelchair.
