Ramp Max Slope

[GHASEM_ARIYANI]

hi

Can you Explain About Field Ramp Max Slope (1 / x)?

Performance  This Amount How is?

1/x where X = the horizontal distance travelled to go up '1' unit in height.

ie - if metres a value of "12.0000" as shown a 12m long ramp will rise 1m - (shortened to 1m in 12m - or 1/12).

In Revit this sets the maximum (Steepest) gradient a ramp will use to get to the required level.

Thanks for you

Do you mean 12.000 = 12m?

I believe that not what the answer meant. the mentioned "unit" is what ever the current length unit you are using in Revit , be it meter, foot, inch etc.. etc..

The ratio 1/x means that a ramp with x unit long will be 1 unit high ( x meter long - 1 meter high, x foot long - 1 foot high ...) The number 12.000 only means that you can specify the ratio up to 3 number after the floating point.
