Pyramide 's recommendation |
 |
|
Use fold-away crash mats with built-in straps
to be able to conceal access to the wall outside normal climbing
hours (the mats are then folded vertically against the climbing
surface and strapped).
Plan slabs on movable structure units that will allow precise and
quick adaptation to the physical abilities of the patients
