How to Evaluate Slope Correction for Slopes Greater than 10 Percent?

Slope Correction for Slopes Greater than 10 Percent evaluator uses Slope Correction = ((Elevation Difference^2)/(2*Unsupported Length))+(Elevation Difference^4/(8*Unsupported Length^3)) to evaluate the Slope Correction, The Slope Correction for Slopes Greater than 10 Percent formula is defined as the method used to correct the distances measured on a slope to their equivalent horizontal distances. This correction is necessary because the length of a slope measurement is longer than the horizontal distance due to the slope's inclination. For slopes greater than 10 percent (which corresponds to a gradient of 1:10 or more), this correction becomes significant. Slope Correction is denoted by Cs symbol.

How to evaluate Slope Correction for Slopes Greater than 10 Percent using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Slope Correction for Slopes Greater than 10 Percent, enter Elevation Difference (h) & Unsupported Length (Ul) and hit the calculate button.
