The strip load equation is the result of integrating the point load equation and most likely done using radians as opposed to degrees. Therefore it is ‘scaled’ for radians. Look at the first reply here: http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/64034.html for more discusion on radians vs degrees. Hopefully that answered your question?
