Question : We need to get a removable wheelchair ramp for a height of 75cm, any ideas of minimum lengths?
It's hardly ever going to be used and there would be people to assist. We are just trying to work out how long it needs to be to make the gradient workable.

Answer:
There are standards for this and I'll have a look for you. British Standard 8300 couild be the one to go for.....Section 5.8.10:Portable ramps should have a surface width of at least 800 mm, adrainable, slip-resistant surface and upstands at least 100 mm high toprevent wheelchair tyres veering off the edge5.8.2 Gradient of a rampA ramp should have the lowest practical gradient within the range 1:20 to 1:12.The gradient of a ramp flight in relation to its going should be no steeper than that shown in Table 1.Table 1....Going up: Not exceeding 2mMaximum Gradient: 1:12 which I think is a bit shallow but that is what it says

 

Question : You need to build a wheelchair ramp to a porch that is 2 ft 4 inches off the ground.?
You need to build a wheelchair ramp to a porch that is 2 ft 4 inches off the ground. The ramp must have a slope of a 1 in 12. How far away from the house must the end of the ramp be?

Answer:
For every 1 unit of rise, there are 12 units of run. That's what slope means.So multiply the height by 12 to find out how long the ramp is.

Question : Does anyone know of an organization that would help pay for a wheelchair ramp for a van?
I have a 9 year old son with cerebral palsy and he's getting too big for my car. I'm in the process of buying a used van, but I'm going to need a ramp put in and I don't have the money to do it. A few people said the Lions Club, or Rotary Club. But, I've never had to ask for money from an organization. I'm just not sure where to start.

Answer:
Another good one is the shriners,they sponser my daughter,5yo w/cerebral palsy.We haven't gotten a van yet,and I'm not sure if they will help.If you buy a new van,both Chevy and Ford have programs that will pay up to 500 and up to 1000$ of the retrofit.I looked for my favorite's links to some site's,but could not find them.Try searching handicap accessible grant.

 

Question : Wheelchair Ramp?
Ok, my friends mother recently suffered a mild stroke. She has had several as well as other health complications and the reality is if not now, very soon she is going to need a wheelchair ramp. She lives in Illinois, zip code 60411, and is on medicaid and medicare. I imagine if she is completely wheelchair bound the doctor would give her a prescription or something for the ramp. Anyways, just wondering where I could find some information and what the best way going about getting a wheelchair ramp would be and if medicare and medicaid would cover it, thank you.

Answer:
Our church paid for someone to build my mom a ramp. If your mom belongs to a church then try contacting them. Could this also possibly be an eagle scout project?

 

Question : We need to build a temporary wheelchair ramp.?
Does anyone know where my dad and I can get plans for a temporary ramp? All the plans we have found involve making it a permanent part of the house. My mother just had surgery that is going to confine her to a wheelchair for only about 3 months. We need a plan that is quick to put up and take down, but will be strudy enough to last a couple months. Any links or ideas? Thanks!

Answer:
My husband built a wooden temporary ramp for my mother using 2x4's and plywood. He attached it to our deck and when she no longer needed it, he removed it. You can use any plan for a wooden wheelchair ramp but attach it to a deck or porch using screws that can be removed later.Do not use materials that make it a permanent fixture like concrete place the support studs on paving stones to keep them from sinking in the dirt and follow the rest of the plans Just use screws instead of nails so it can be removed and disasembled when no longer needed..Make sure you use something on the surface for traction and old piece of carpet or a plastic runner turned bumpy side up.

Question : Is the cost of building a wheelchair ramp tax deductible if I am renting the home?
My wife and I paid our own money to add a wheelchair ramp to a home that we are renting. I'm quite sure that this cost would be deductible if we owned the home, but I'm not clear about our status with this as renters. Is it spelled out clearly someplace?

Answer:
While its not really relevant to this question, homeowners can only include capital improvements for medical reasons (ie: a wheelchair ramp) in medical expenses to the extent which the cost of the improvement exceeds the increase in home value due to the improvement.

 

Question : Wheelchair Ramp-A contractor is building a wheelchair accessibility ramp ?
(see figure) for a business. Using your knowledge of right-triangle trigonometry, help advise him how to create a ramp whose dimensions will meet the specification needed that will allow wheelchair accessibility. Talk about the procedure the contractor will need to follow to find the dimensions of the three sides and the measurements of the three angles. Consider the implications of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in your discussion and provide an example.

Answer:
Basic issue is the maximum safe ramp angle. If you know the height difference then you can find the length of ramp by the following relationship:ramp length = (height change) / sin (ramp angle)suppose the height difference is 4 ft, and safe maximum ramp angle is 10 degree (I don't know this angle is correct, you need to look this up at ADA website). Then the length of ramp is:ramp length = 4 / sin 10 = 23 ft.
