    Default Minimum clearance between stucco and concrete flatwork.

    Whats the minimum recommend clearance between hardcoat stucco and concrete flatwork? I usually state that most siding products need a capillary gap of 1-3 inches.

    Stucco on frame has a minimum of 4" or 6" above concrete flatwork as the minimum termite inspection clearance, as I recall.
