Urban accessibility as a pillar of citizenship.
Urban accessibility goes far beyond building ramps. Therefore, it requires careful attention to universal design to guarantee the autonomy of all. After all, inclusive cities benefit society as a whole. For this reason, WGB Arquitetura e Engenharia prioritizes technical solutions that eliminate physical barriers.
Understand the concept of Universal Design.
Universal design proposes spaces that are usable by everyone. Therefore, there is no need to create exclusive designs for specific groups. Furthermore, this approach improves the user experience for the elderly, pregnant women, and people with reduced mobility. For example, tactile paving and adequate widths are fundamental in this process.
Technical standards and safety
Following ABNT (Brazilian Association of Technical Standards) guidelines is mandatory to ensure safety. To meet these requirements, we analyze every detail of the infrastructure. However, many projects ignore the correct slope of ramps. Consequently, the risk of accidents increases significantly. Therefore, technical planning is indispensable.
Accessibility in practice
We design sidewalks that respect continuous accessible routes. In addition, we remove obstacles that impede traffic flow. A practical example of this application occurs in the vicinity of... Ibirapuera Park, In a city where the fluidity of pedestrian traffic demands precise engineering solutions, the success of a city depends directly on how we connect public spaces to buildings.
Technology promoting inclusion.
We utilize advanced technologies in our civil engineering projects. This ensures millimeter precision in all interventions. Furthermore, technology allows for simulations that anticipate problems before execution. Therefore, investing in technical expertise avoids rework and unnecessary costs.
