This tool helps you calculate the incline of a ramp based on its length and height.
Ramp Calculator
This ramp calculator helps you determine the slope ratio and incline percentage based on the slope length and rise height you input. The angle input is optional and not used in calculations.
How to Use
- Enter the Slope Length in feet.
- Enter the Rise Height in inches.
- Optionally, enter the Ramp Angle in degrees.
- Click on the Calculate button to see the results.
Calculation Explanation
The calculator determines two key values:
- Slope Ratio: This is the ratio of the rise height (in feet) to the slope length. It’s a dimensionless number representing the steepness of the ramp.
- Incline Percentage: This is the slope ratio converted into a percentage, indicating the amount of rise per 100 units of length.
Limitations
This calculator is designed to provide an estimation based on the inputs provided. Ensure accurate measurements for correct results. The ramp angle input is not used in the current version of the calculator.
