1/4 " per ft is average
The maximum slope for a 3-inch sewer pipe is typically recommended to be 1/4 inch per foot (approximately 2% slope). This ensures adequate flow and prevents blockages while allowing for proper drainage. However, local building codes or regulations may vary, so it's essential to consult them for specific requirements in your area.

A 3 or 4 inch pipe sticking straight up out of the ground? This is the clean out for the sewer line. If sewage is coming out of it, this means the sewer line is clogged or collapsed from there to the main city sewer. If you have a septic tank, the tank is full and needs to be pumped out.
The purpose of a sewer pipe is to collect waste from drains and peoples homes and transport it through the sewer system to the sewer plant. There it is treated and the water is recycled.
It should be 3" minimum, preferably 4.
1/8" per foot.
The sewer vent pipe is typically located on the roof of the building.
A slope of 1/4" in 12' is 0.0017 - inadequate for cleansing; it should be at least 0.0084 to produce a reasonable flow velocity of 2 ft/sec. The metric slope I was informed is 18mm in 1000mm Most codes require a 1/4" slope for each 12" of run.
It really depends on your local building code, but 2% should be the minimum so that your pipe will be self-cleaning.
