Percent Grade vs Degrees

11/8/2022

Percent grade measures steepness as a rise over run percentage, while degrees indicate the angle of the slope.
Percent grade calculation involves dividing the vertical rise by the horizontal run and multiplying by 100.
Degrees are determined using trigonometric functions to find the slope's angle relative to the horizontal.
Vehicle inclinometers typically read in degrees, which can underestimate the actual steepness compared to percent grade.
Peak DirtWorks utilizes advanced technology to ensure driveway layouts comply with local grade regulations.
