We're doing a commercial remodel which is requiring us to drop a warehouse slab 7". If we use a 1:15 slope, is this still considered a ramp, and are we still required to have a landing at the door?
 
Anything greater than a 1:20 slope is considered a ramp, both from a building code point of view and an accessibility point of view.
