  2. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    as a ratio of one part rise to so many parts run. For example, a slope that has a rise of 5 feet for every 1000 feet of run would have a slope ratio of 1 in 200. (The word "in" is normally used rather than the mathematical ratio notation of "1:200".) This is generally the method used to describe railway grades in Australia and the UK.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheelchair_ramp

    For example, a 20-inch (510 mm) rise requires a minimum of 20 feet (6.10 m) in length of ramp. Additionally, ADA limits the longest single span of ramp, prior to a rest or turn platform, to 30 feet (9.14 m). [2] [3] Ramps can be as long as needed, but no single run of ramp can exceed 30 feet (9.14 m).

    The required length of the bed depends on the mass and speed of the vehicle, the grade of the arrester bed, and the rolling resistance provided by the gravel. [2] These are similar to gravel or sand traps used on motor racing circuits in runoff areas on road courses and drag strips.

  6. Breakover angle - Wikipedia

    β° = Breakover angle; C = Underside of chassis; W = Wheel; G = Ground; M = Midpoint of wheelbase Example of a vehicle at a significant breakover angle.. Breakover angle or rampover angle is the maximum possible supplementary angle (usually expressed in degrees) that a vehicle, with at least one forward wheel and one rear wheel, can drive over without the apex of that angle touching any point ...

  7. Ramp travel index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramp_travel_index

    Ramp travel index or RTI, is a way of measuring a vehicle's ability to flex its suspension, a property also known as axle articulation. The RTI rating is used mainly in the off-roading industry to test and describe chassis limits of modified vehicles.
