Guest Blogger Ian McMillan writes: Week 8 was about levels. Scraping back the (apparently) flat site to incorporate foundations, pads, ground slab and domestic drainage. Given that the site is only 250m2, the 260 cubic metres/ 130 tonnes that has to be removed off site does seem incredible. However the levels are the key to…
Utility ramp handrails are common all-in-one safety components used along any accessible ramp that typically provide user assistance and protection from falling off a ramp. As free-standing elements, utliity handrails must double as both an assistive handrail and a guardrail for users. The Ramp (Handrails - Utility) has an overall combined height of 4’ (122 cm), total length of 18.7’ (5.7 m), and width of 44” (111.7 cm). Dimensions will vary based on the desired slope and height needed. Handrails along both sides of a ramp are required on any ramp system with a rise greater than 6” (15.2 cm) or a horizontal run greater than 72” (182.9 cm). The top grippable surface of any ramp handrail must be set at a height between 34”-38” (86.4-96.5 cm) above the ramp surface and a minimum clear width of 36” (91.4 cm) must be provided between handrails. In situations where a handrail is not continuous, handrails must extend at least another 12” (30.5 cm) parallel to the flat surface of the ramp landing. Inner handrails on a switchback or turned ramp must always be continuous. The ends of any handrail should be rounded or returned smoothly to the floor, wall, or post.

A ramp is comprised of horizontal sloped runs connected by level landings between runs. Any slope greater than 1:20 and less than 1:12 along an accessible route shall be considered a ramp that is required to comply with ADA accessibility codes and compliances. The maximum allowable slope in any new construction is 1:12 with a maximum rise of 30” (76.2 cm) without a landing. A ramp with a slope between 1:12 and 1:16 can have a maximum horizontal length of 30’ (9.14 m) without a landing. A ramp with a slope between 1:16 and 1:20 can have a horizontal run up to 40’ (12.19 m) before requiring a landing.

Known as a dreamer who created utopia, architect Oscar Niemeyer took on a project of epic proportions more than 50 year ago: designing the monumental buildings of a new city, Brasilia, the capital of Brazil. At 103, he reflects on his work, past and present.
