How to Calculate the Lawn Slope
|
There are two common ways to measure the slope of a surface: degrees and percentage.
The simplest way is to measure the slope in percentage using the formula given in Figure 1, while: L – is the length of the slope H – is the height difference
After calculating the slope in percentage, use the table below to convert the slope in percentage to degrees
