Angle of Repose of Soil in Canal Design Formulas

The angle of repose of soil of a granular material is the steepest angle of descent relative to the horizontal plane to which a material can be piled without slumping. It ranges 0°-90°. And is denoted by Φ. Angle of Repose of Soil is usually measured using the Degree for Angle. Note that the value of Angle of Repose of Soil is always positive.
