Stairs slope

I walk with a cane because I now have trouble with stairs and slopes, and when something moves across my visual field I can lose my balance and fall. There are days when I cannot get out of bed, I m in such pain and so fatigued. 

Personnel access to Monk s Park was via a double-car electric lift, with emergency stairs adjacent to the slope-shaft and in a secondary venical shaft. Goods were brought into the depot via the slope-shaft, which was... 

FIGURE 15.4 A scheme of the organization of a skill-based multilevel control for locomotion. Regular reflexes are sequences of system states connected with conditional If-Then expressions within a single mode of the gait, mode reflexes relate to the change of the mode of the gait (level, slope, stairs, etc.), and hazard reflexes are for situations where software or hardware cannot drive the system upon the preferred sequence of system states. 

A collaborator with a height of 1 = 1.8 m hastens up a flight of stairs, stumbles and falls backwards with his head on a stair, since he does not manage to regain control of his body. The slope of the staircase is 45°. What consequences are to be... 

There are several factors that affect stairs safety. They include uniformity of dimensions, resistance, slope, visibility, stmcrnral strength, width, tread depth, placement, and other feamres. 

Slope The slope of a stairway is the ratio of riser height to tread depth. The preferred slope for stairs is about 30-35 degrees from horizontal. Standards differ on actual values and slopes may fall between 20 and 50 degrees. Tread and riser dimensions should have dimensions that are easy to create using a tape or mle. Otherwise, it is difficult to lay them out or to buy them. Table 11-6 lists some combinations of tread and riser dimensions that result in slopes between 30 and 40 degrees. 

Figure 2-11. A plot of the stress measured during the three-point bending test for aged gels. The X indicates the point of fracture and used to calculate the modulus-of-rupture. The straight lines are set by the initial slope of the flexure cure and are used to obtain the elastic modulus. The area under the curve is the energy-to-break. The stair-stepfeatures in the data are due limited digitization resolution.

Ramps are used in areas where there is high traffic and/or frequent use of wheeled carts that are used to move equipment. Ramps will be used where the elevation change is small and there is sufficient room to allow for a gentle slope. Stairs should generally be used over ladders in the following situations ...
