Fixtures & Water HeatersPregunta 62 de 120
Two water closets are to be installed side by side in a school restroom. What is the minimum distance between the centerline of one closet and the centerline of the adjacent closet?
a.30 inches
b.24 inches
c.21 inches
d.36 inches
Explicación
Because each closet needs 15 inches of clearance on each side of its centerline, two adjacent closets require 15 plus 15, or 30 inches center to center. The 24 inch and 21 inches figures are front clearance numbers, not lateral spacing. 36 inches exceeds the requirement and would be an accessibility compartment width rather than the general fixture spacing minimum.
