Can someone point me to the ADA specs for shower grab bar heights or tell me what the height should be for the grab bars in a custom shower?

Call the building inspector and ask him what height they look for. It may not be right but I have found not everyone agrees with what the ADA code says. Definitely don't forget to put the blocking in for the bars, I have at least 2 inspectors who are big boys & like to balance on ADA bars to make sure they are strong enough
