Enter the change in drift between point X and point X-1 and the height from X to X-1 into the Story Drift Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Story Drift.
Story Drift Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Story Drift.
D = d / H
Variables:
- D is the Story Drift ( )
- d is the change in drift between point X and point X-1
- H is the height from X to X-1
How to Calculate Story Drift?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Story Drift.
- First, determine the change in drift between point X and point X-1.
- Next, determine the height from X to X-1.
- Next, gather the formula from above = D = d / H.
- Finally, calculate the Story Drift.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
change in drift between point X and point X-1 = 1.25
height from X to X-1 = 8
D = d / H = ?
