| Above Surface Level | Access to the building is at least one floor above the normal surface level, such as up steps, or a via a bridge from another building.                                                                                                                                       |
| Below Surface Level | Access to the building is at least one floor below the normal surface level, such as down steps, down a ramp or underground.                                                                                                                                                  |
| Surface Level       | Access to the building is at ground level and doesn’t require more than one floor level’s ascent or descent from ground level. Note that this has a subtly different meaning to the physicalLevel of ‘Surface Level’ applied to Building Part and other topographic features. |
