Dear Forum,
I would like some informaton on the requirements for ramp construction/installation for wheel chair users. Any alternative to BS 5810: 1979 that I can get freely online.
Kind regards,
Kenny

Building Regulation AD Parts K and M along with BS 8300:2001.
Also the CAE's Designing for Accessibility (ISBN 1 85946 143 3) is very good.
Hope this helps.

In reference to BS 5810:1979 this has now been replaced by BS 8300:2001.
The COP is now entitled "Design of Buildings and their approaches to meet the needs of disabled people"
A good read at 156 pages, but be mindful of your fire risk assessment / PEEP (personal emergency evacuation plan) for disabled egress as well.
Kind regards
Derek Housley
