TEK Ramp — Detailed Guide
A sloped Tek floor
The TEK Ramp, written Tek Ramp in ARK: Survival Evolved, is an inclined building piece in ARK: Survival Ascended and ASE for moving between the levels of a base. The game explains: "An inclined composite Tek floor for travelling up or down levels. Can also be used to make an angled roof." So the same piece can also give a building a pitched roof.
Size and placement
The ARK Wiki gives its size as 0.5 foundation wide and 1 foundation long, with a height of 1.5 walls, which can make a layout tricky to plan. Its advice is to place ramps starting at the top: the surplus part then usually ends up below the floor, whereas building upward from the bottom tends to leave the ramp jutting out over the surface you want to reach.
Tekgram and crafting
The ramp is learned as a Tekgram, which the wiki says is earned by beating 
Broodmother Lysrix on medium difficulty. It is made in a 
Tek Replicator or an 
Exo-Mek; one craft takes 90 seconds (1.5 minutes), gives 32 XP and produces 2 ramps from:
- 70
Metal Ingot or 
Scrap Metal Ingot - 20
Polymer, 
Organic Polymer or 
Corrupted Nodule - 20
Crystal or 
Primal Crystal - 1
Element or 
Red Element
Each ramp weighs 4 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 400. Our records also show 20 crate types that can contain it, such as the Genesis Green, Orange and Red crates on Genesis Part 2.
What can damage the ramp
It counts as a Tek structure, and only the following can damage it: the 
Tek Rifle, Tek Saddles, explosives, the 
DodoRex, the 
Arthropluera and the 
Titanosaur, along with titans, bosses and corrupted or enraged creatures.
