Obstructions

Anyone have a idea or more preferable legislative source to easily establish whether an object is an obstruction?

Im working with 1:50 take off and also approach slope
The object is 75m tall, 800m from the runway end.

1:50= 2%

75/800= 9.4%

So obvioulsy an obstruction as the climb gradient necessary is inexcess of the 2%.

Am i right to believe that that the object intrudes by 59m in height?

.02*800m= 16m Allowable yet our object is 75m tall

Comments please
