FAQ

What key features do Occupational Therapists include in ramp design drawings?
When designing ramps, whether small threshold ramps or larger access ramps, occupational therapists must clearly indicate the ramp’s overall width, length, and height (and possible elevation).

They often include an arrow to point upwards.

Additionally, they should specify features like tactile ground surface indicators, landings, and handrails.
How does Moddy help OTs design to Australian standards?
The Ramp tool in Moddy displays the gradient + ratio of the ramp for the Occupational Therapist when they are building it.

This allows the Occupational Therapist to know whether the ramp they’re designing (based off the measurements they’ve taken in the real world) will meet the gradient requirements of the building standards.

It is the responsibility of the OT to have a working understanding of the current building standards and how they will apply this to the environment which they’re designing for.
How do I add ramp wings?
The Ramp tool in Moddy allows OTs to add wings to a ramp, on either side or both.

This is typically used for small threshold ramps and is achieved by toggling these on or off in the right-side menu.
Can I design both large and threshold ramps in Moddy?
Yes.

In Moddy, the ramp tool is able to be used to design either a smaller threshold ramp or quite large complex ramps, such as those with a middle that turn back on themselves.
Is it possible to add railings to the ramp?
Yes.

The handrail tool can be used to create a single handrail or bilateral rails.

You can quickly add an associated kerbrail, midrail, or balustrade to the handrail.
