🌟 Case Study Spotlight: Swift Temporary Access for Euston Station The Task: With the station’s main entrance closed for construction works, we were tasked with creating a temporary access route from an alternative entrance. This needed to be completed within a tight deadline of three days and two nights. What We Delivered: Our team worked around the clock in shifts to install a fully compliant ramp system with four entry points and a connecting step system. After the hire period ended, the systems were dismantled and repurposed to prevent landfill waste. Unlike single-use wood or concrete alternatives, our modular systems will be reused In other hire projects, providing access from different entrances in new configurations.

We’ve had great success enhancing accessibility to heritage buildings, including projects with the National Trust! WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE RAPID RAMP TOO? ☑️ Non-Invasive Installations: Our systems can be installed without bolting to walls, preserving historic structures. Plus, concrete tiles can be placed underneath the system's feet to prevent flooring damage. ☑️Effective Communication: We continuously engage with relevant conservation and planning authorities throughout projects to uphold the highest standards. ☑️Compliance: Our systems fully adhere to Parts M & K of the building regulations. ☑️Flexible & Fast Installations: Systems are installed within a few hours, often during non-operational hours, minimising visitor disruption. ☑️Better Than Concrete: Unlike concrete ramps, which need at least 24 hours to dry in on good weather, our modular solutions can be installed quickly in most conditions, including light snow and rain.

🌟 Case Study Spotlight: Creating a Wheelchair-Accessible Entrance for Campus & Co! We installed a new modular ramp for Campus & Co in just a few hours on a bank holiday, ensuring no disruption to the shop's daily operations. In contrast, a concrete ramp would have required a minimum drying time of 24 hours and could only be installed in good weather conditions. By adding ramped access, the owners have created an inclusive environment where everyone can easily access their services while meeting their obligations under the 2010 Equality Act.

Make sure you have a Building Control Officer (BCO) assigned to your project! A BCO, often employed by a local authority, can provide sign-off. Alternatively, an approved inspector (typically working in the private sector) can do so too. We’ll make sure your system meets all sign-off standards on your next project ➡️ ➡️https://buff.ly/3zCOBAw #BuildingControl #ConstructionCompliance #ProjectManagement #UKConstruction #BuildingRegulations #Modular #ModularDesign #UKConstruction #PartK #PartM

You asked: How strong is the modular Rapid Ramp System? We tested: An incredible 3,000 kg load of blocks were stacked onto our widest metal platform (1,500 mm), designed for public pedestrian use. The platform and handrail successfully experienced no sign of failure, showcasing its exceptional strength and durability. Although our ramp successfully supported 3,000 kg during the testing, we recommend a safe working load of 1,000 kg. It’s also worth noting that this was a single module, the structural performance is only increases as more modules & turns are added to configure a ramp.
