http://schema.org/description

  • ""This study provides information on ramp design and ramp negotiation strategies for wheelchair users, health professionals and builders. Current guidelines and standards are predominantly based on "dry-land" studies, but anecdotal feedback from wheelchair users identifies problems with winter accessibility due to the snow-ice surface properties. This study is the first quantitative biomechanical analysis of wheelchair mobility on ramps under snow and ice conditions and provides evidence-based recommendations on providing ramp-based access to homes during winter."--Publisher's website."
