The research investigates pedestrian movement characteristics on two specific building ramps. Variables of pedestrian movement such as speed, flow, and area were studied, as well as the relationships between these variables. In addition, the specific measurements of speed, flow and area were compared with similar measurements determined by other researchers not only for ramps, but also for stairs and level surfaces. Finally, suggestions were made for additional research into the characteristics of pedestrian movement on various elements of the building circulation system.
