Giải thích
A common standard is to slope soil away from a foundation about 6 inches over the first 10 feet, roughly a 5 percent grade, to carry surface water away from the structure. Sloping toward the building or leaving it flat allows water to pond against the foundation. Positive drainage protects the structure from moisture damage.
