PRESENTATION OUTLINE
In order to build the proper ramps you would need to know Slope Percentage
Calculating the Slope Percentage
Slope percentage is calculated in much the same way as the gradient. Convert the rise and run to the same units and then divide the rise by the run. Multiply this number by 100 and you have the percentage slope. For instance, 3" rise divided by 36" run = .083 x 100 = an 8.3% slope.
Statistics and Probability
If an engineer can collect data at other skates parks of what obstacles are most used to make sure they can plan out the most popular obstacles. They can create a scatter plot of slope and amount of kids on that obstacle to find if there is a relationship between the steeper the slope the more kids trying that obstacle.
A cylinder is a simple geometric shape with two equally-sized and parallel circular bases. If you want to know how to calculate the volume of a cylinder, all you have to do is find the height (h), and the radius (r), and plug it in to a simple formula: V = hπr
