			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Public utility buildings and facilities are made mainly for general social access wherein they must cater to the different qualities and characteristics of individuals in the society. For this issue, buildings are created and developed under a normative standard for social access including the adequate points of entry and passageway spaces.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">However, in the aspect of general public access, public utility buildings should also consider establishing accessibility features for people with disabilities namely those in the wheelchair population. For this concern, wheelchair ramp slope should be constructed in these building for entry and passageway access in these buildings and the services contained within it. This includes public offices, utility buildings, banks, hospitals, recreational facilities, comfort rooms, and others that cater to the necessity and wants of the society including the disabled population.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Wheelchair Ramp Slope Construction</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the aspect of construction wheelchair ramp slope, there are several standards and factors that must be considered for its ease and functionality for the disable population. This includes the adequate space for mobility, traffic, and comfort of its users. In general, there is a basic wheelchair ramp slope that is being followed relating to the rising angle of the slope, movement space in terms of width, safety medium, and the mobility ease of the moving wheelchair. For the width clearing, wheelchair ramp slope should have ample space measured within 36 inches or more. The slope ratio should cater to the qualities and abilities of its users wherein the disabled population can easily rise and descent. The easiest standard for this is established within 1:12 ratio for the angular level.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The quality of the wheelchair ramp slope material and level landing spaces should also be considered in the construction. The floor slope should be made in a way that it doesn't hinder with the ascent and descent of the disabled population particularly on their control over their wheelchair. Certain technological innovations can also be applied in this concern such as electric wheelchair slope made based on the conveyer belt system to assist the people with disability in their mobility. Instead of using physical force in moving their chair, the wheelchair ramp slope can be made automatic to transport its users between different level landings for the comfort and ease of the disable population.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Indeed, adhering to these standards and applying certain technological innovations can effectively make public utility construction and buildings accessible for the general public including the disabled society.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The society is mainly composed of different individuals each having their own respective qualities and characteristics which make them unique. On normative scale, there are some factors that are generally similar in the society which are called the public standards. From these factors that most social concepts, ideas and innovations are created for public use and construction however, some minority aspects should still be considered in the public perspective.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">People who are physically challenged are still part of the society thus, must be included in the public perspective and issues. The population riding in wheelchair must also be considered in particular such as allotting several transportation means and mediums for their accessibility and necessities. In this concern, the idea of wheelchair ramp construction must be made mandatory for public utility structure making them inclusive towards general public access including people with disability.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Designated Point for Wheelchair Access</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Public utility structures should be made to be accessible for the population in all aspect and in general perspective. With this idea, people with disabilities should also be considered wherein a designated point for entry and passageway must be considered for wheelchair access. A particular issue in this argument is the necessity of wheelchair ramp construction.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Allotting appropriate spaces for wheelchair ramp construction is an important concern for public access for both public and private construction. Buildings that are made for public access whether for the business of incoming customers, patrons, or employees/workers, a designated space for wheelchair ramp construction must be given as entry and exit points towards the building construction.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In addition to this, adequate funds, effort, and space should also be given for wheelchair ramp construction as passageway inside the building structure such as in between floor access and room access. In this aspect of wheelchair ramp construction, several means and approaches can be considered in constructing wheelchair ramp slope such as employing technological innovations such as elevator ramp or escalator mode ramp which allow easy access for the disabled population.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ideally, wheelchair ramp construction is a concern that must applied in all possible construction facility but mainly on public buildings. Hospitals already apply the idea of wheelchair ramp construction not solely on the interest of accessibility but because of their necessity. Other facilities should likewise apply the similar idea such as city halls, public liparies, comfort rooms, restaurants, and others making them open and accessible for the disable population.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In general, wheelchair ramp construction is important to create general-wide public access for the population with disability thus, building a single social unit idea that caters to everyone in the society.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Public utility buildings and facilities must be made based on the concern of the social interest wherein they must be constructed based on accessibility and comfort for the different qualities and characteristics of the people. Primary in this construction concern is the normative quality wherein the building should have entrance and exit point, sufficient passageway access, and comfortable transportation mobility for both inside and outside the buildingâ€™s vicinity. For this concern, the primary characteristics of the buildings are established in terms of access and mobility.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">However, there are several minority characteristics that should also be considered on the concern of social accessibility which must also be included on the attention of public accessibility and ease. This is the concern towards the disabled population which possesses different concerns from the normative view. For their specific situation, different concept must be applied such as the employment of wheelchair ramp design in the building construction.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Special Concern on Public Access Interest</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The concern of public accessibility and concern must be specially applied and implemented in the building design construction. For this concern wheelchair ramp design should also be included in the construction process to make the facility accessible for the physically-challenged population in terms of entry and passageway. Similar likewise to the concern of creating comfortable normative access point, wheelchair ramp design should also consider the ease, mobility, and comfort of its target population.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the concern of wheelchair ramp construction, its design must likewise be critically planned and analyzed to provide easy passage and entry for its target social demographic. In particular, a spacious allowance should be allotted in the wheelchair ramp design for the benefit of its users. In this concern, the width, height, and slope inclination should be critically considered to enhance their usage and applicability to the handicapped population. For the specifications, the wheelchair ramp design should allow comfortable space for mobility and traffic for easy handicapped access for both ascent and descent.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Considering the slope characteristics, wheelchair ramp design should also be made for easy movement. In the design, the inclination should be easy for both direction movements enabling the person to maintain full control over the wheelchair during the transportation. In addition, sufficient floor landings must be constructed either in between floors for rest stops and floor changes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Indeed, constructing wheelchair ramp slope is needed for the public accessibility concern of the general population. Considering the benefit of its target population, the wheelchair ramp design should consider also ease, mobility, and comfort for easy access and passage of the handicapped population.</p>
