Definitions  \nABAAS: Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards are the accessibility standards which pertain to the Federal sector. The ABA, or Architectural Barriers Act of 1968, requires access to facilities designed, built, altered, or leased with federal funds. (See also “Accessible,”“ADA,” and “Rehabilitation Act.”)  \nAccessible: In context with the requirements of this contract, accessible is defined as in compliance with accessibility standards as specified in the Programmatic Accessibility Guidelines for National Park Service Interpretive Media. Federal laws, including the Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards (ABAAS) and Sections 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, shall be followed. Universal Design and its seven principles shall be applied as a part of the NPS definition and requirements.  \nAccessioned Objects (AO): Objects accessioned into the park collection, or objects on loan from other institutions. These items require the highest level of preservation and security criteria. Historic objects also include original period items acquired as part of the exhibit project to enhance interpretation. Park staff determines whether to accession these objects on a case by case basis.  \nADA: Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. This law prohibits discrimination against individualson the basis of disability. It applies to state and local governments, and public accommodations operated by the private sector. While there are exceptions, it does not generally apply to media and exhibitions that are federally funded and installed in federal facilities. Therefore, the term “ADA” or “ADA compliant” should not be used when referring to accessibility compliance in Federal Government owned and operated facilities. (See also “ABAAS” and “Rehabilitation Act.”)  \nArtifacts: See “Accessioned Objects.”  \nAs-Built AV Drawings: Final design and detail drawings updated by the contractor to reflect all changes that occur during installation and provide a record of the “as-built” condition of the AV, or Electronic Equipment, systems. Drawings include all equipment, cables, connectors, connections points, and devices.  \nAs-Built Exhibit Plan: The fabrication contractor updates exhibition content data (e.g., text, content schedules, technical data, etc.) to reflect all changes that occur during fabrication and installation, and provides a record of the “as-built” condition of the exhibits, which may vary from the final design documents prepared by the exhibit planning & design contractor.  \nAs-Built Exhibit Drawings: Final design and detail drawings updated by the fabrication contra","cbCaiv3VccDrpp7C","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiv3VccDrpp7C","pdf",739750,193,"English","# Definitions\n## Accessibility and related federal standards\n## Exhibit lifecycle terms\n## As-built and documentation terms\n## Audio/AV and related technologies\n## Audience-centered interpretation concepts","[{\"question\":\"What does ABAAS mean and what is its purpose in the document?\",\"answer\":\"ABAAS means Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards.
