What is Pipe Slope?

Pipe slope is a measure of the incline of a pipe. It is typically expressed as a percentage, indicating the ratio of the pipe fall (vertical drop) to the pipe length (horizontal distance). Pipe slope is important in various engineering and construction applications, such as ensuring proper drainage and fluid flow through pipes.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ PS = \frac{2}{100} \times 100 = 2% \]

The Pipe Slope is 2%.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ PS = \frac{1.5}{50} \times 100 = 3% \]

The Pipe Slope is 3%.
