What is Loading Ramp Length?

Loading ramp length is the length of the ramp needed to cover a certain rise at a given slope. It is an important parameter in designing ramps for accessibility and loading purposes.

Example Calculation

Example 1:

Step 1: Calculate the loading ramp length:

\[ LRL = \frac{24}{0.5} = 48 \text{ inches} \]

Example 2:

Step 1: Calculate the loading ramp length:

\[ LRL = \frac{36}{0.75} = 48 \text{ inches} \]
