INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION:
SICO's ® ramp system is a modular system that is
designed to connect to any SICO
Modules are available with either 6" [15.2 cm] or 8"
[20.3 cm] height increments up to 72" [183 cm] high
to match the height or the range of heights of your
SICO ® portable stage. The ramp system includes
the ramp surface, handrails and all hardware that is
required.
A typical ramp system consists of:
• A 0"-6" [0-15.2 cm] or a 0"-8" [0-20.3 cm] wedge
section;
• A 72-3/8" [184cm] or 96-3/8" [245 cm] bridge
section;
• One or more 72-3/8" [184 cm] or 96-3/8" [245 cm]
folding leg sections;
• Right hand and left hand handrails for each ramp
section;
• An upper clamp for connecting the top ramp
section to the stage or ramp landing;
• Optional caddy for storing the ramp system and
for transporting the ramp system between the
storage location and the stage location.
ADA requires that ramp runs be no more than 30 feet
[9.14m] long, so ramps higher than 30" [76cm] will
require one or more ramp landings or turnarounds.
Space considerations may require turnarounds on
lower ramp systems. Each landing or turnaround
requires additional guardrails, an upper and a lower
clamp assembly and may require enter and exit
handles, and a handrail U-turn.
A typical ramp turnaround, where direction of travel
changes by 180 degrees, consists of two 3'x8' [0.9m
x 2.4m] folding leg platforms, but could be a single
6'x8' [1.8m x 2.4m] SICO
portable stage. A typical ramp landing, where direc-
tion of travel does not change, could consist of any
4'x8' [1.2m x 2.4m] SICO
landing is at the same height as the main stage and
is different from the main stage, a landing to stage
connector will be required. Note that a 60" [152 cm]
turning circle is required when there is a change in
the direction of travel.
