This week, we are continuing our conversation on the pro tips for walks and sidewalks, specifically, Section 307 of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design specifying the guidelines for protruding objects and how to work your way around to avoid violations.

We're joined by two phenomenal ADA inspectors and consultants Paul Klein and Mark Wood, who are also BlueDAG co-founders. Together, they have more than 50 years of experience in the field, doing ADA inspections and developing BlueDAG. BlueDAG's Director of Content and Compliance Victor Felix also joins the discussion.

In this episode, you will hear:

• Protruding objects section of a walk
• Vertical clearance requirements
• Writing up tree branches in your report
• A catch-22 solution for tables with umbrellas out of the main path of travel
