6.4.
RAMP LOWER TRANSITION:
6.4.1.
The lower transition, in combination with an MRST (RAMP SUPPORT TOP)
is commonly used to span wider gaps or accommodate larger angular
misalignment than can be achieved with an upper transition. It can also be
used in place of the ground transition in some situations. Despite being
called a lower transition, it can be used at either end of a ramp or ramp run.
NOTE: The lower transition is the larger of the two transitions.
6.4.2.
Lift the end of the ramp and install the lower transition as shown in FIG. 6.16.
6.4.3.
If the lower transition is resting on the ground, anchoring is optional.
6.4.4.
If a lower transition is resting on any type of raised area (i.e., a platform,
deck or porch), it must be anchored using the same procedures as used in
‘ANCHOR RAMP UPPER TRANSITION.’
