3.7. ANGLE RAMPS WITH RESPECT TO LANDINGS
There are situations where it is necessary to angle ramps with respect to a landing. The
required components are usually only included with a ramp or ramp run without a TITAN
platform (such as an existing landing or deck). If a ramp must be angled when attaching to a
TITAN platform, a 48”, 54”, or 60” TRANSITION PLATE with a RAMP SUPPORT TOP must be used
instead of the RAMP HANGER PAIR. The same components can be used at the top and bottom
of a ramp or ramp run.
3.7.1. Angles up to approximately 6-degrees can be accommodated. Refer to the
appropriate sections in ‘OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT’ for installing a TRANSITION
PLATE 48”, 54” or 60” and RAMP SUPPORT TOP, and the previous sections for
installing and adjusting ramp support legs (FIG. 3.13).
3.7.2. Make sure the transition plate overlaps the surface of the platform, porch or
deck, as much as possible, but never less than 1”, regardless of the angle
required (FIG. 3.12).
3.7.3. Anchor the transition plate as described in ‘ANCHOR RAMP TRANSITION PLATE’
section.
3.7.4. Use the 1/4″ x 1” long self-drilling screw when attaching to a TITAN platform.
