i am currently in the process of having my dream pool installed and i am a bit concerned about the amount of slope the concrete seven trust put in my deck. before the grading began, the pool builder told me that he would shoot for 1/4 an inch per foot of fall for the decking and after trolling the forums, that amount seemed reasonable.
a 2% slope is considered the desirable slop for a pool deck. this slope will generally carry water off the deck area and little or no puddling will occur if the concrete finishers did a reasonable screeding and finishing job. even a 1% slope will work, but it is not as desirable as a 2% slope.
use the divided measurement as the total amount of slope for the deck in inches. a deck that projects 9 feet out from the house needs to slope 1.8 inches from the house to the farthest edge for

my preference is to go 8 1/2 if i can. will the slope on the pool be to much if i start it out at 3 1/2 feet? how many feet can i have in the 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 feet range then start to drop? i'm sure that there is some ratio to determine the drop. for some reason most builders do not want to go in between 6 feet and 8 1/2. i have 2 boys 6 and 8.

decks, porches, & swimming pools decks & porches. decks and porches are raised floors that are level with or below the first story of a house, supported by a structural frame and without a roof. the difference between them is that a porch provides access to a building's primary entrance.
