Ground Pressure of a lawn roller

[Cat401]

With the 24" being almost twice as heavy it will have higher compaction.

If that is not sufficient then I suggest a steam roller.

What are you trying to accomplish? I used a roller to try and get all the dew worm lumps flattened. Even after a good soaking to soften up first didn't work.

lol, I totally agree that in principle the 24" will apply more ground pressure.....

this has gone beyond the job at hand and turned into more of a math equation for me....I thought there was a scientific way of measuring this.....

Thanks for the responses

this should keep you busy for a while.

Arc Length Definition: The distance along the curved line making up the arc (See also Angle measure of an arc.) Try this Drag one of the orange dots that define the endpoints of the blue arc. The arc length will be continuously calculated. The arc length is the measure of the distance along the curved line making up the arc. It is longer than the straight line distance between its endpoints (which would be a chord) There is a shorthand way of writing the length of an arc: This is read as "The length of the arc AB is 10". The lower case L in the front is short for 'length'. However, in many cases the letter L and even the curved line over the AB is left out if there is no doubt about what is meant. The formula the arc measure is: arc length = 2 π R C 360 ​ where: C is the central angle of the arc in degrees R is the radius of the arc π is Pi, approximately 3.142 sorry the animation didn't post.

Cut and paste seems to bugger things up. better yet. go to this site.

I'm not doing all the math but i have a 36" cheap one i bought at cdn tire and then i found a real nice one at home hardware its twice what the other one is and weight is 920 lbs ,ordered it in only took a few days.

Thanks Ron.
That is the exact one that I was looking at.

well worth the 3 - 5 day wait. Took a while to find these. This one is quality built at a very reasonable price

I still say go to Fla man's. rent a 55ft one. Give the neighbours something to talk about.
