The formula to calculate the loading ramp length is:
\[ LRL = \frac{R}{S} \]
Where:
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 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:
\[ LRL = \frac{36}{0.75} = 48 \text{ inches} \]
