The aim of this work was to provide well defined criteria for ramp construction for wheelchair dependent individuals (WDI). Force capability was measured in a large sample (140) of WDI, who presented different levels of motor impairment. Levels of impairment were established on the basis of the answers given in a questionnaire regarding the degree of self sufficiency at home as well as outside the home and active participation in sports events. Taking into account those WDI who exhibited at least a minimal level of self-sufficiency, the following prescriptions are indicated. For a 1 metre ramp length, allowable maximal incline 15%; up to 3 metre ramp length, maximal incline 10%. The reliability of such prescriptions was confirmed by having a test ramp traversed by 43 WDI. These values are suggested as confidence limits when faced with public building accommodations. Special prescriptions could be adopted for selected populations of WDI.
这项工作的目的是为依赖轮椅的个体（WDI）提供明确的坡道建设标准。对大量（140名）呈现不同程度运动障碍的WDI样本进行了力量能力测量。根据一份关于在家中和家外的自给自足程度以及积极参与体育活动的问卷答案来确定损伤程度。考虑到那些至少表现出最低程度自给自足的WDI，给出以下规定。对于1米长的坡道，允许的最大坡度为15%；对于长达3米的坡道，最大坡度为10%。43名WDI通过一个测试坡道，证实了这些规定的可靠性。在面对公共建筑设施时，建议将这些值作为置信极限。对于特定的WDI人群，可以采用特殊规定。
