gardenfever asked:


I’m planning to build an informal patio and interested in learning more about the durability (particularly in a rainy climate) of crushed rock (1/4-) as a surface material. I would compact it well with a plate compactor.

I need help calulating slope or concrete and patios?

August 15th, 2011 | Posted in patios   Comments Off
J B asked:


Ok… I used to have these formulas.. but can not figure them out…
I need to calculate how much rise (or drop) I will have for say a 30′ patio which I want a 1.5% slope on it. I believe the formula is DE=SxL

But when I calculate slope (.015) x length is it in inches (360) or total feet (30) ? I hope you can help!
