Ramps

Our team was wondering about the dimensions of the ramp. The rules say it's 12 inches high and 12 inches wide on the top, but what is the length on the bottom? As well as the angle of the sides of the ramp?

Re: Ramps

The bump is 36 in long in all. The two ramps are each 12 in long, and the top is another 12 in. Since the height is 12 in, this makes the angle 45 degrees. Good luck!

Re: Ramps

The field drawings are found on the FIRST website with the manual. The specific PDF that outlines the bump is GE-10047.
The cross-section of the bump is 36" at the bottom, 12" tall, and 12" wide.
