About the AWMT
The Aspects of Wheelchair Mobility Test is a tool to provide data on the mobility facilitated by different wheelchair types. In the AWMT, wheelchair users roll in three rolling environments, rough, smooth and tight spaces. (Click here for directions and more information.) The rough surface can be done on local rough surfaces, or it can be done with Modular Rough Surface Units which provide a standardized rough surface for wheelchair users and can be put together locally.

Important: Print documents "Actual Size."
