All of these statements are TRUE about RAMP EXCEPT...?
provides a rough transition for the access of vehicular and pedestrians.
provided next or near staircase as an alternative to facilitate the movement of end users.
inclined surfaces used inside and outside buildings to provide access between vertical levels.
a short concave slope or bend, as one connecting the higher and lower parts of a staircase railing at a landing.
What are the important characteristics ramp design for the disabled?
Handrails, Edge Protection, Slip Resistance Surface & Width Clearance
Handrails & Width Clearance
Handrails, Edge Protection & Slip Resistance Surface
Edge Protection, Slip Resistance Surface & Width Clearance
Concrete ramps can only be casted in-situ and cannot by using precast concrete.
The statement above is TRUE or FALSE?
TRUE
FALSE
Types of ramp are vehicular ramp, pedestrian ramp, ramp for the disabled and service ramps. Each of the
ramp has its own ratio of slope. Which of the sloping ratio is wrong?
Vehicular ramp – 1:7 - 1:9
Pedestrian ramp – 1:10 - 1:12
Ramp for the disabled – 1:7 - 1:9
Service ramp – 1:10 - 1:12
What is SLOPE RATIO?
Which of the statement below is INCORRECT?
Slope or gradient of a ramp, is the angular relationship between its rise (vertical height) and its horizontal projection or length (run), often expressed as a ratio.
1:12 slope ratio means that for every inch of rise, you will need one meter of ramp. As an example, a 12 inch rise would require a 12 meter ramp to achieve a 1:12 ratio.
Slope percentage is calculated in much the same way as the gradient. Convert the rise and run to the same units and then divide the rise by the run. Multiply this number by 100 and you have the percentage slope.
Slope gradient is a key factor in influencing the relative stability of a slope.
What is this?
a non-slip surface
a curb
a ‘warning tactile’
a clear line of sight
What are the mistakes of this ramp design?
(a)
The ramp design is efficient or not?
YES
NO
