Our experts have decades of experience dealing with a variety of different ramp types including straight, curved, switchback or manual wheelchair accessible stairs. Concrete ramps are built with precision and attention to detail to ensure proper function and ease of use. Safety features such as non-slip and detectable warning mat surfaces are also incorporated into each ramp design to provide an extra layer of protection.
What Factors Are Considered When Designing a Concrete Ramp?
The first consideration should be the purpose of the ramp. For example, ramps that need to comply with the ADA guidelines for accessibility must meet certain requirements for slope, width, run length, and texture. The slope is a representation of the change in elevation between the starting and ending points, and it is calculated by dividing the difference in elevation by the ramp’s horizontal length. A run can be an entire ramp, but it is commonly used to describe the individual sections of a ramp that changes direction or is interrupted by flat platforms. As a rule, ramps and runs with steep slopes require more effort to transfer loads.
Therefore, an ADA-compliant ramp needs to have less slope than a ramp that will be used exclusively by forklifts. The second consideration of importance is the weight that the ramp will need to support. A pedestrian ramp, for example, does not need to be as strong as a ramp that is constantly subjected to truck traffic.
