What is Camber?

Camber is the slope provided to the road surface at the transverse direction to drain off the rainwater out of the road surface. It is also known as the cross slope of the road. On straight sections of roads, they're shoulders with higher cross fall relating to that of the carriageway by 0.5%.

How to Calculate Gradient given Camber?

Gradient given Camber calculator uses Elevation Difference = 2*Height of Camber to calculate the Elevation Difference, Gradient given Camber is defined as elevation difference of extreme end of road to center point of road. Elevation Difference is denoted by h_Elevation symbol.

How to calculate Gradient given Camber using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Gradient given Camber, enter Height of Camber (H_c) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Gradient given Camber calculation can be explained with given input values -> 3 = 2*1.5.
