15' ALLEY (+/-11% longitudinal grade)
SAG: ~25% break
PL / alley edge
City limits: ramp slope 15% max; change of slope 11% max, 5-ft min. transitions (NBMC 20.40 / PW Std. 160L).

Proposed: ~25% ramp with ~25% breaks at both ends. AASHTO P front overhang 3 ft x 25% = ~9 in. of ramp under the bumper (sag) - more than typical car front clearance; up to ~8 in. of ground rise inside the wheelbase at the crest (high-centering).

Vertical exaggerated 3x for clarity. Ramp length ~4.5 ft per A2. Shown rising to garage; breaks are the same magnitude if it falls.

TURNING MOVEMENT EXHIBIT - ALLEY GARAGE ENTRY (OPTION B) Design vehicle: AASHTO 'P' passenger car - 19' L x 7' W, 11' wheelbase, 3' front / 5' rear overhang, min. centerline turn radius 21', inside radius 14.4'.

Maneuver: northbound up alley from Riverside Ave (+/-14% then +/-11%), single forward left turn at minimum radius into garage. Driver assumed to hug the far (east) alley line (0.3-1 ft off) - the most favorable case available.

RESULTS (swept width needed at door line = 11.2 ft; P car is only 7 ft wide):

Stall 1 - single door, ~10.7' opening < 11.2' swept width: hits pier. NOT FEASIBLE.

Stall 2 - double door, S bay: clears pier by only ~0.5 ft, with perfect driving.

Stall 3 - double door, N bay: swept path hits N wall/jamb ~3 ft. NOT FEASIBLE.

Any correction = multi-point turn / reversing within the public alley on an 11% grade.

VERTICAL (not shown in plan): The +/-25% driveway approach exceeds the 15% max. ramp slope in NBMC 20.40, and the alley-to-approach grade break (~25%) exceeds the 11% max. change of slope (5-ft min. transitions, PW Std. 160L). The turn above must be made while the vehicle climbs onto that break at an angle on an 11% alley.

NOTES: 1. Sheet A2 is marked NTS. Scale derived from the 15.00' alley R/W and 17'-0" dimensions (~10.4 pt/ft); verify against CAD/survey. 2. Door, pier and wall locations taken from A2 linework. 3. Exhibit for discussion - recommend confirmation with AutoTURN by a licensed civil engineer.
