2.4. 45-DEGREE ANGLE PLATFORM
This platform is used between two ramps to make a 45-degree turn and features a symmetrical design,
making it usable in either direction.
2.4.1.
There are two handrail options for 45-degree Angle Platforms: Two-Line and Vertical
Pickets. The platform includes the handrail components needed for the option ordered.
Platform handrails are shown for clarity on how to orient platforms in various
configurations. It is strongly suggested that all platforms and ramps be assembled
before installing handrails (see ‘HANDRAILS’).
2.4.2.
Set platform on one of the sides where the ramp will attach and install legs and feet, then
adjust height as described previously in this section. The two legs on the short side must
be installed in the orientation shown (FIG. 2.8).
Use “low profile foot” for platform heights under 4”.
FIG. 2.8
2.5. 8’ X 5’ TURN BACK PLATFORM
This platform is used to create a turn back (or switchback) instead of connecting two 5’ x 4’ platforms. It
includes two standard 5’ platform handrails and handrails for the 8’ side with a curb (FIG. 2.4).
