The diagram below illustrates the minimum information required to determine the Length of Ramp for a 35° angle of inclination required for a client’s needs. A 35° angle is the optimum angle that makes it easy enough for an individual to climb up the ramp in a manual wheelchair or for a person to push a someone up the ramp in a transfer chair. Using an angle below 35° will unnecessarily increase the length of the ramp beyond what is required or available. This is confirmed by using the Wheelchair Access Ramp Calculator.
