Handicap Entrance Ramp

Searched on line but no hits, Any affective way to create a handicap ramp under a front porch roof line sloping from the entrance door to a parking area

As long as the ramp is sloping a min. of 1" in 12" it can be made of conc. or wood or aluminum or just about anything else.
Does this help?

Question would be what tools in CA can create this?

Oh, in elevation view I create a p-line solid up against a wall lets say that the ramp is against. then I give it a thickness equal to the width it should be and then use the break tool and handles as needed to shape.

Search the Help Database under Support at ChiefArchitect.com for wheelchair ramp. There are several good tutorials there.
