Do ramps require intermediate handrails like stairs (handrail within 30 inches of any portion of the stairs?) I did not see any requirement, but I would like to double check.
Are removable handrails allowed on a ramp? The only restriction I saw was 1014.5 Fittings Handrails shall not rotate within their fittings. I did not see anything about "Securely Fastened"
The ramp with landings is 192 feet long rising 13 feet. Adjacent to the ramp will be a conveyor belt. The client wants to run a forklift on the ramp in case the conveyor breaks and they need to offload product and also run forklifts the whole conveyor length until it is repaired.
Thanks
