2.1 slopes
2.1 slopes
(OP)
when grading residential lots in my area the local inspection agency checks 2.1 slopes with a smart level. The reading is suspossed to be 50%. Is the 50% reading absolute or is there a plus or minus tolerance?

Hpoefully your inspector is somewhat practical.

Remember, it is not up to the contractor to determine what is "ok".

I am not sure if this applies in your area, but in my area a smart level is often an electronic spirit level that can give a slope reading. So if this is the case in your area I would think that it is near useless in measuring slopes on land.
Nothing beats a check by surveyors level or laser level for height differences over a given length.
