< BR> I am currently involved in construction of two new laboratories and was ins tructed by the city commercial building review department to include a 1&quo t; high curb around the shower area to keep hazmat from entering the floor d rain in the event of a spill.  Also, the curb has to be sloped on both sides to allow accessibility.
