Achieving a compliant width for public access ramp

Ramps for public use (whether to a building or space) must have a minimum width of 1500mm, and often can accomplish a minimum ramp gradient of 1:15 or a 1:20 gradient is frequently specified.

The maximum gradient that your ramp can reach is determined by the change in rise (aka the height) to overcome. If the maximum gradient has been reached, a resting platform must be provided to allow the user to pause, as they may become tired and out of breath.

Achieving a compliant width to a domestic building

ramp to a dwelling must meet a minimum width of 900mm and often a can accomplish a gradient of 1:12.

If you are having trouble achieving a fully compliant system, ask yourself if there is an alternative entrance that a ramp can be installed from?
