Maximum Truck Ramp Slope Guidelines

The document provides guidelines on minimum dimensions for access ramps to parking lots. It establishes that the maximum slope for ramps is 20% and that their minimum width must be 3m, in addition to specifying requirements for turning radii and orientation of parking spaces based on the slope of the ramp.

The ramps must allow easy access to the spots without the need for maneuvering.

The minimum useful circulation width of the ramps is 3m (R1), 3m with alignment (R2) or 6m (R3).
defined in terms of the overall capacity of the parking lot and the use of the building.

3 - Whenever parking is carried out on multiple floors, the connecting ramps between them may have
width dimensions corresponding to the capacity of the floors they serve.

4 - Excluded are the large commercial areas and large automobile garages, in the
It should be ensured that there are R3 ramps (with two-way traffic) or double ramps.
R1 or R2 (with a direction of circulation).

5 - Minimum curvature rays are:


a) Ramp R1 - 6.50m to the outer edge, with a minimum lane width of 4m;

b) Ramp R2 - similar to R1, with agreement of adjacent landings;

c) Ramp R3 - 9.50m to the outer edge, with a minimum lane width of 7m;

d) In large commercial areas and large car garages, the ramps must
are designed according to the specificity of each project.

6 - The slope of the ramps must not exceed the following values:

Parking Type A - 17%;

b) Parking Type B - 18% (straight guideline) and 16% (curved guideline);

In exceptionally unfavorable cases, located in historic areas, consolidated areas and in


small lots, a maximum value of 20% for ramp slopes may be accepted
of straight guideline (type B parking) of small extension.

7 - Whenever the slope exceeds 12%, a transition curve must be provided with the area of
agreement in the floors, with a minimum extension of 3 m, in exceptional situations, and of 3.50 m in
current situations, and with the inclination reduced to half of the ramp's inclination.

8 - Whenever the designed solution for the park includes ramps, and based on its
tilt, the orientation of parking spaces in relation to the guideline of the corridors of
circulation must respect the following values:

a) Ramp with an incline of up to 15% - Maximum parking orientation - 90º;

b) Ramp with an incline between 15% and 16.5% - Maximum parking orientation - 60º;

c) Ramp with an inclination greater than 16.5% - Longitudinal parking, preferably in the direction
descendant;

In exceptional cases, located in historic areas, consolidated and on small lots.


dimensions, less favorable values may be accepted.
9 - The ramps R2 that have two circulation directions must have light signaling.
so that only vehicles that can proceed freely attempt to pass.

What are the minimum dimensions of a parking space?


At least 2.40m x 5.00m and a clear ceiling height of 2.20m. For collective garages, it must-
passage openings of 3.00m are expected and two openings when accommodating more than 50
cars. The ramps must also have a minimum width of 3.00m and a maximum slope
20%. Continuous ventilation equivalent to 1/20 of the floor area must be observed.
In addition, the corridors for parking lots at up to 30º must have a width of
3.50m; at 45°, 4.00m and at 90°, 5.00m. Curved ramps must have an inner radius

Is there a minimum circulation width for semi-detached houses?
It is mandatory to have independent access for vehicles and pedestrians. The entrance openings
vehicle circulation areas must have a free width of 3.00m (art. 107-IV) and the
pedestrian walkways must have a clear width of 1.10m (equivalent to 2 units)
by passage according to NBR 9077.

CIRCULATION

Article 87 - Vehicle traffic lanes must have minimum dimensions for each
traffic sense of:
a) 2,75 m (dois metros e cinqüenta centímetros) de largura e 2,30 m. (dois metros e trinta
centimeters) of free passage height when intended for the circulation of cars and utilities.
b) 3,50 m (três metros e cinqüenta centímetros) de largura e 3,50 m. (três metros e cinqüenta
centimeters) of free passage height when intended for the circulation of trucks and buses.
Article 88 - A single lane of traffic will be allowed when it is intended for a maximum of
transit of 60 (sixty) vehicles in residential buildings and 30 (thirty) vehicles in
other uses.

Article 89 - The access ramps to parking lots must present:


a) A setback of 4.00 (four) meters from the building alignment, for its beginning, when it pertains to
vertical buildings;
b) Maximum slope of 20% (twenty percent) when intended for vehicle circulation and
utilities;
c) Maximum slope of 12% (twelve percent) when intended for the circulation of trucks and
bus.

Article 90 - Ramps for cars and utility vehicles in single-family residences will have a slope
maximum of 25% (twenty-five percent) which can start at alignment.

Article 91 - The lanes in curved sections will have increased width due to the internal radius,
expressed in meters, and the slope, expressed as a percentage taken in the development
inside the curve, according to the provisions in the table below.

§ 1º - There should be a provision for agreement between the normal width of the lane and the increased width.
necessary for the development of the curve.

§ 2 - The cross section of the ramps must not have a slope greater than 2% (two percent)
hundred).
