What Are the ADA Requirements for Concrete Ramps?

The Americans with Disabilities Act guidelines say that all newly constructed ramps must meet the following requirements:

A 1:12 ramp-slope ratio—in other words, a slope of 4.8 degrees in the ramp itself, and at least one foot of ramp for every inch of rise
Flat and unobstructed areas at both the top and bottom of the ramp, each measuring at least five feet by five feet in area
Minimum ramp width of 36 inches
No more than 30 feet of ramp surface without a landing and/or turning area
Curbs or railings on the outer edges of all ramps
Permanently installed railings at least 36 inches high on both sides of ramps which rise more than six inches above ground level
Slip-resistant and stable surfaces on all areas of the ramp, which properly set concrete generally qualifies as

There are also some unique rules and restrictions for the construction of ADA ramps specifically in Austin set by local ordinances, which our team can explain to you in more detail.

Repairing and Replacing Old ADA Ramps

In addition to new ADA ramp construction in Austin, we can also assist with making minor repairs to ramps already in place on your property, or—if the damage is too severe for minor fixes to be effective—tearing up and replacing the ramps altogether. Typically, very narrow cracks and minor damages to a ramp’s edges and curbs can be addressed with spot repairs. However, widespread hairline and block cracking usually require a full replacement, as does any crumbling in sections of concrete.

No matter what your specific needs are, our concrete experts will give you the service you need while prioritizing logistics, flexibility, honestly, and integrity.
