Georgia has multiple rules surrounding how to get modular aluminum wheelchair ramps ready. Many of these rules are based on regular ADA standards, but the state lists some specifics surrounding getting a ramp ready. REDD Team can work around these state-specific rules and help you get a quality ramp that fits your school in Georgia. Our modular aluminum wheelchair ramps for schools in Georgia are custom-made to fit your space while being easy to support and maintain.
Following the Right Standards
Your Georgia school ramps must be built with various points to improve how well they work. Here are some of the standards the state requires for a ramp:
- You can have as many runs on a ramp as you wish, but each run can only have a maximum rise of 30 inches. A landing is necessary in between any runs in the ramp.
- Landings of 60 inches or longer should be at the bottom and top of the ramp and between runs.
- The slope can be as steep as 1:12 or 12 inches long for every inch of rise. A slope from 1:16 to 1:20 is recommended. A steeper slope at 1:8 to 1:10 can work in existing constructions, provided the rise is three to six inches.
- There should be enough drainage points around the ramp to keep water from accumulating. This point is critical for outdoor ramps.
- There should be at least 80 inches of headroom around the ramp for any person who might assist something in moving a wheelchair up or down.
- Handrails are necessary if the ramp has a rise of six inches or more and has a slope steeper than 1:20. The handrail should be about 34 to 38 inches high and about two inches away from any wall or other adjacent surface.
These rules for getting a ramp are thorough, but our experts at REDD Team understand them and will be ready to prepare a ramp for your school.
