Thank you for this info.I've not seen anything special for that state. Rick is the go to guy on this, but ADA is Federal, not state. State can add their own stuff to it, but that seems to be mainly California that's messing all around with that.
From my understanding of it, you must have braille and tactile. One's no good without the other. It should be 60" from the ground to the center of the sign.
The most important thing for anyone to know is it must be GRADE 2 braille. If you don't know what grade 2 is, you need to get that education before you quote the job. You cannot, repeat CANNOT download a braille font, type in the text and just change the font. You'll be in a world of hurt if you do.
Thank you very much for this I will give it a good read.The following document will be of assistance, do not skim it though, there are a lot of things one can accidentally make a mistake on, such as contrast of background/lettering.

Providing 18 Wheelchair and 18 exit signs for a new fitness center.Joehauls edition is a little old.... before I can suggest a correct edition....
A few questions...
Are you redoing a whole facility, or onsey twosey signs?
What type of facility... apartments, government building, housing with government funding, state building, federal building, hospital or private office?
What do you mean wheelchair and exit signs? Neither of those are braille or tactile, but there are local codes for those.
The contractor has been advised by the architect that all exits must have a generic if you wish Disabled access sign.I would assume that these are the type that have a wheelchair symbol above the wording 'Disabled Access'
