Suffolk Construction came to Nation Ramps with a requirement to create access to their Park 5th Los Angeles development site.

The large scale project needed to have ability for tractor trailers to access the site during multiple stages of the project development; they needed a ramp that could provide grade level access handle the weight capacity and width, and be adjustable to accommodate for the changing site through the life of the project. They also needed a solution that was strong enough to handle the daily abuse of a busy job site. Engineered to exceed capacity levels, Suffolk needed a solution that could survive the unpredictable.
