Hi All ,
I am about to start forming up a concrete slab at the back of the house for a screened in porch. I will likely hire the actual pour, and do all of the excavation, rebar, etc myself. How much slope should I have on the slab? Since it is covered, I was going to go with a very gentle slope, about 1/8" per foot. 1/4" per foot seems extreme because the roof will do most (all) of the water shedding.
Thanks,
Joe
