Abstract

Since 1980s, the accessible industry in China has witnessed many important achievements. However, problems such as the uneven development of accessible construction between cities, developed and underdeveloped regions in China, and the large population base demanding accessibility have become increasingly prominent, putting forward new requirements and challenges for urban accessible design. In September 2021, China issued a new version of the mandatory Engineering Construction Code for Accessibility for Construction and Municipal Engineering. Given the current situation of national accessible development, this paper summarized the development history of China’s accessible industry based on the research of accessible design standards and accessibility guidelines, and forecasted the future development trend of accessible construction. It is hoped that through summary and analysis, workers in related industries can clarify the development direction of accessible design and devote to the humanized and sustainable development of social environment in China.
