how do you relate slopes of lines with civil engineering?

Question

i dont need a lot of info, just enough to get a basic idea

any information on civil engineering wil do, though i need more on the relation with slopes of lines (math) and their salary average

Answer 1

CEs use slopes all the time. Roadway grades are sloped along the roadway and across the roadway. Roofs are sloped to drain rainwater.

Channels are sloped to provide the delivery of water.

Sewer lines are sloped to drain wastewater to the treatment facility or to drain storm run off water so it does not become a nuisance and become a nesting bed for mosquitoes.

This is just a very small sample of slopes used in CE.

Answer 2

Slope is rise / run * 100 percent. Or the the tangent of the angle * 100 (percent)

Answer 3

Civil engineering is very vast subjects and if u are in designing u must know calculation regarding math,some fields needs simple calculation but as overall u need strong base in math.
