Correct Answer
A. 1/12Explanation
The maximum slope of a ramp refers to the steepest incline that the ramp can have without being too difficult or unsafe to use. A slope of 1/12 means that for every 12 units of horizontal distance, the ramp rises 1 unit vertically. This slope is relatively gentle, making it easier for people to walk or wheelchairs to move up and down the ramp safely. A steeper slope, such as 1/10 or 1/20, would make it more challenging to navigate the ramp, while a slope of 1/100 would be almost flat and not provide enough incline for easy movement.Rate this question:

D. 1120 mmExplanation
The correct answer is 1120 mm because it is the maximum width specified in the RA 9514 Fire Code for a ramp. This width is determined to ensure safe and efficient evacuation during fire emergencies. A narrower ramp width may impede the flow of people exiting a building, while a wider ramp may not be necessary and could potentially waste space. Therefore, 1120 mm is the appropriate width according to the fire code regulations.Rate this question:
