in the Netherlands a roof should be inclined at least 1% and drainpipes at least 2%.
I advise you to use 2% because of the possible roughness of the sundial surface.

Hello all,
I have a commission to design a 5ft diameter horizontal mosaic dial for the island of Bonaire in the Caribbean. Because of all the rain they get, the client wants me to incline the dial face slightly (but not a lot) for water drainage.
How many degrees should I incline the dial? Is there some set standard that builders use for things like sidewalk drainage?
thanks
John
