Slope Analysis

Obtaining reliable data regarding a property’s slope is imperative in hillside construction and renovations, especially in California. The laws surrounding hillside construction vary significantly across different regions, and EPOCH is highly knowledgeable about local and regional requirements related to slope band analysis and baseline hillside ordinances.

We acquire precise slope data to determine the gradient of the land’s surface, categorizing it for design purposes. This information is crucial for architects, who rely on accurate slope analysis to determine the maximum residential floor area ratio and to effectively utilize the available space. Our detailed slope analysis ensures compliance with all applicable regulations, facilitating successful hillside construction projects.
