You Asked: What is the minimum (steepest) gradient a ramp to a public building can have to receive building control approval? We answered: The maximum (steepest) gradient you can use is 1:12. You can use a gradient between 1:12 and 1:20, if the ramp length remains within the permitted lengths. Please refer to the diagram below for the maximum ramp lengths corresponding to these gradients (see Doc M. Vol 2, Page 19, Table 1 & Diagram 3 / BS8300-1, Page 40). If your project requires a fully compliant ramp, get in touch today! We offer systems that adhere to all necessary standards ➡️ https://buff.ly/3zCOBAw #BuildingRegulations #Accessibility #InclusiveDesign #ConstructionCompliance #BuildingControl #PublicBuildings #EqualityAct2010
