[SML] rakes

[Richard Niederberg]

Dear Dick,
Don't 'Cats' ratio, but For liability purposes, 1/4":12" is the safest
under the Uniform Building Code, as it is the minimum rake for drainage on
roofs, so you should be able to beat any Workman's Compensation claim if
you use that ratio and a worker falls.
