    patio slopes
    I have a 10x35ft patio that has numerous low spots, is scaling and does not drain properly due to incorrect slope. What does the Int'l Bldg Code require for slpoe per foot of width?

    1/4" per foot slope is the least amount you want, any less will not move the water and it will pool.
