Question Australian SID / Sup takeoff distance question

hello!

Im a kiwi pilot that is shortly about to do a bunch of IFR flying within Australia. Many of the smaller airfields within AUS don’t have SIDs, and I recall one of my colleagues saying the Supplementary take-off section of the RDS in ERSA could be used to figure out climb gradients for departure. I’ve scanned the ERSA, AIP, GPA and FIHA, and fear I may have missed the section that explains exactly how these can be used to work out a departure/climb gradient.

Is is anyone able to point me to the section in Aus pubs that explains it? I’m just a little unsure of the practical application.


thanks so much!
