    Whenever and wherever possible, walk ways should have a gradient not more than _____.

    • 1:12 or 5%

    • 1:10

    • 1:8

    • 1:20

    Correct Answer
    A. 1:12 or 5%
    Explanation
    Walkways should have a gradient not more than 1:12 or 5% to ensure safety and accessibility for all individuals. This means that for every 1 unit of rise, there should be no more than 12 units of horizontal run, or a maximum slope of 5%. This gradient allows for easier navigation and reduces the risk of accidents, especially for those with mobility challenges or using assistive devices such as wheelchairs or walkers. A steeper gradient would make it more difficult for individuals to traverse the walkway comfortably and safely.

    A level area not less than ____ should be provided at the top and bottom of any ramp.

    • 2.0m

    • 1.8m

    • 1.5m

    • 1.0m

    Correct Answer
    A. 1.8m
    Explanation
    A level area not less than 1.8m should be provided at the top and bottom of any ramp. This is important because it allows for a safe and smooth transition for individuals using the ramp. It provides enough space for them to approach and exit the ramp comfortably without any sudden changes in elevation. Having a level area also reduces the risk of accidents or injuries that could occur if the ramp abruptly ends or begins on an uneven surface. Therefore, 1.8m is the appropriate measurement for ensuring the safety and accessibility of the ramp.

    Gradient of dropped curbs towards adjoining curbs.

    • 1:10

    • 1:20

    • 1:12

    • 1:8

    Correct Answer
    A. 1:12
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 1:12. This ratio indicates the gradient of dropped curbs towards adjoining curbs. A gradient of 1:12 means that for every 1 unit of horizontal distance, there is a change in vertical distance of 1/12 of that unit. In the context of dropped curbs, this ratio indicates the slope or incline of the curb, ensuring a gradual transition between different levels for accessibility purposes.
