how to convert slope into percent grade
It is a 300% slope!
"Percent Slope" is a representation that uses the ratio between the rise and run to describe the triangle formed. "Degree slope" is the measure of the angle formed. You can simply take the percent and divide by 100 to get back to the real ratio and then take the inverse tan of that number to give you the degrees of slope.
30% is steeper than 15% slope.
66% is a D grade and 99% is an A grade.
60 percent would normally be a grade of D.
convert percent of slope to degree
It is a 300% slope!
Slope, or percent of grade.
66%
To convert 'D' degrees into a percent slope, you could use the Excel formula:= 100 * TAN ( D / 57.296 )
I suppose you mean road gradients which are specified in percent. This means the amount of rise or fall per unit of distance. Thus a gradient of 1 in 5, which means a rise or fall of 1 unit in 5 units of distance, would be stated as 20 percent, that is 20 in 100, which is the same as 1 in 5.
maximum slope is 1 in 12 = 8.33 in 100 = 8.33 % grade

a forester uses them daily to quickly determine a tree's height, or percent grade on slope
-- Measure how far the slope rises in 100-ft of horizontal distance.-- That number is the percent of slope, or the "grade".-- If you want the angle of the slope, divide the number by 100, and look upthe "arctangent" of the answer in a table or on a calculator.
When determining the measurement of slope on a road, the equations are for grade (gradient). The formula is grade = (rise ÷ slope length) * 100
