Abstract
This research aims to evaluate and propose effective gradient at car porch area
for the housing sector. The dependent variable that acts as presumed effect is vehicle to
stuck and become lodged but the independent variable is referring to the car clearances
dimension, design of the ramp and guidelines in ramp design. In other words, the
situation of the vehicles to stuck and lodged depends on the car clearances dimension,
design of the ramp and guidelines in ramp design. Interview sessions were held with the
professional architects and engineers in the engineering department at Majlis Bandaraya
Seremban, DBKL, Majlis Bandaraya Melaka, Majlis Bandaraya Johor Bahru, Jabatan
Kerja Raya (JKR) and consultant firms. During the interview session, four aspects of
this matter were discussed to explore the existing standards and guidelines in ramp
design for car porch at housing sector in double storey house to accommodate lowclearances
vehicles. The feedback from the professionals was analysed and the result of
the study will be valuable to the construction industry and tools for future design. These
data can be used to estimate the suitable degree and percent for different categories of
ground clearances which is useful for current development and current technology
circulation especially for consultants, authority and contractor.
