Length of Slope Calculator

Formula

To calculate the Length of Slope:

\[ LOS = \frac{H}{S} \]

What is Length of Slope?

The length of slope is the distance measured along the slope from the base to the top. It is calculated by dividing the total height by the total slope. This measurement is important in various fields such as construction, landscaping, and engineering.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Total Height \( H \) = 10 units
Total Slope \( S \) = 2 units

Step 1: Divide the H by the S:

\[ LOS = \frac{H}{S} = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \]

So, the Length of Slope \( LOS \) is 5 units.
