There is currently no content classified with this term.
8.3.3.1.1: Unobstructed high forward reach
Where the access space is integral to the ICT and the forward reach is unobstructed, the essential controls should be located no higher than 1 220 mm (48 inches) above the floor of the access space.
8.3.3.1.2: Unobstructed low forward reach
When the access space is integral to the ICT and the forward reach is unobstructed, the essential controls shall be located no lower than 380 mm (15 inches) above the floor of the access space.
8.3.3.1.3: Obstructed reach
Where the access space is integral to the ICT and has an obstruction which is integral to the ICT which hinders the access to any essential controls, the ICT should provide a clear floor space which extends beneath the obstructing element for a distance not less than the required reach depth over the obstruction.
Where the access space is integral to the ICT and has an obstruction which is integral to the ICT and which is less than 510 mm (20 inches), the forward reach to all essential controls should be no higher than 1 220 mm (48 inches) above the floor contact of the ICT.
Where the access space is integral to the ICT and has an obstruction which is integral to the ICT and which is greater than 510 mm (20 inches) and less than 635 mm (25 inches) maximum, the forward reach to all essential controls should be no higher than 1 120 mm (44 inches) above the floor contact of the ICT.
8.3.3.2.1: Unobstructed high side reach
Where the access space is integral to the ICT, allows a parallel approach, and the side reach is unobstructed or obstructed by an element integral to the ICT which is less than 255 mm (10 inches), all essential controls should be within a high side reach which is less than or equal to 1 220 mm (48 inches) above the floor of the access space.
8.3.3.2.2: Unobstructed low side reach
Where the access space is integral to the ICT, allows a parallel approach, and the side reach is unobstructed or obstructed by an element integral to the ICT which is less than 255 mm (10 inches), all essential controls should be within a low side reach which is greater than or equal to 380 mm (15 inches) above the floor of the access space.
8.3.3.2.3: Obstructed side reach
Where the access space is integral to the ICT, allows a parallel approach and has an obstruction which is integral to the ICT, the height of the obstruction should be less than 865 mm (34 inches). Where the depth of the obstruction is less than or equal to 255 mm (10 inches), the high side reach to all essential controls should be no higher than 1 220 mm (48 inches) above the floor of the access space.
Where the access space is integral to the ICT, allows a parallel approach and has an obstruction which is integral to the ICT, the height of the obstruction should be less than 865 mm (34 inches). Where the depth of the obstruction is greater than 255 mm (10 inches) and 610 mm (24 inches) maximum, the high side reach to all essential controls should be no higher than 1 170 mm (46 inches) above the floor of the access space.
