Yattendon C Of E Primary School

Accessible ramped entryway leading to the newly constructed outdoor classroom.

Our in-house specialist designer generated CAD drawings, which were then included with the client's quotation.

The ramp's design works around the existing tree.

The ground before the entrance is divided into two sections: tarmac and a bark-covered area. The tarmac is elevated and stable, while the bark-covered area is a softer surface. 

To address this, a weed membrane was laid over the bark-covered area, and the ramp feet on that side were affixed to concrete slabs.

All of the ramp feet were precisely adjusted to create a level walkway with a compliant gradient of 1:15.

This ramp fully aligns with the requirements outlined in Document K and M of the Building Regulations.

FEATURES INCLUDED:

•  Infill Handrail - this product prevents users from climbing or falling through gaps.
• Telescopic Legs - these can be adjusted to accommodate different threshold heights.
• Yellow Tread - this is a safety feature designed to help those with impaired vision identify the nose of the ramp and any level changes.
• Trombone Ends - these are added to the ends of a Rapid Ramp to prevent clothes catching.
• Mesh Platform - the self-draining mesh allows water to pass through rather than collect on the surface.
• 1100mm High Rail – these handrails attach to any level sections.
• Continuous Handrail - this handrail system ensures users always have support to hold onto.
• Standard colour: Black - Ramps are powder coated black to create a durable finish that is tougher than conventional paint.
