RAMP CALCULATOR
NOTE:
A.- These calculations apply only to portable ramps. Contact us for modular ramp estimations.
B.- USE THESE CALCULATIONS ONLY AS A GUIDE for determining the ramp length you REQUIRE.
DIRECTIONS:
1.- You ONLY need to enter the rise (vertical height from the loading surface to the ground).
2.- Then, press the button "calculate results" and you will obtain 3 different measurements of ramp. If you get decimals, round to the next higher number (i.e. 3.33 feet or ramp means 4.00 feet of ramp).
3.- Press the "reset" button (if you want to try other rises).
PLEASE,ENTER RISE IN INCHES (vertical height) inches id = "inp" size = "3">
Ramp length recommended for Commercial Locations (1:12 slope) feet of ramp id = "result1" size = "2.9">
Ramp length recommended for Residential Locations (2:12 slope) for Occupied Ramps, when the powerchair /scooter is being used feet of ramp id = "result2" size = "2.9">
Ramp length recommended for Residential Locations (3:12 slope) for Unoccupied Ramps, when nobody is seated on the wheelchair /scooter feet of ramp id = "result3" size = "2.9">
