Ramp review and timing question

Postby home_alone » Sat Dec 30, 2017 9:50 am

Hi Folks,

Please review this ramp.

I finished in 35 minutes including making notes from the program, etc. How does that compare to others?

Thank you as always!

You have an average of 55 minutes each, so that's fine.

Looks good.

Hi I noticed that you did not place the handrail on the right side of the ramp between the 30" landing and the 26" landing. Is there anything on the code which allow us to skip it? I am attempting the ramp vignette for the first time myself and I was trying to figure out how to solve the 12" handrail extension on the top landing from the ramp.

Rise less than 6" does not req handrail. Thus ramps less than 6' long at 1:12 don't require it, only a guard rail.
