FAQ

What is a good slope for a shed ramp?

Many shed ramps use a practical run-to-rise ratio such as 8:1 or 12:1 depending on load, traction, and space.

How do I calculate shed ramp length?

Multiply rise by the slope ratio to get run, then use the diagonal length from rise and run.

Is this an ADA ramp calculator?

No. It is for shed planning only and does not determine building code or ADA compliance.
