According to the IRC, the minimum height for a shower curb is 2 inches from the top of the drain. Specifically, the building code states: The curb shall be not less than 2 inches (51 mm) and not more than 9 inches (229 mm) deep when measured from the top of the curb to the top of the drain.

Remember that water will travel in the path of least resistance. Shower jambs should to be slanted inward at a 5-degree 1/4″ pitch or slope so water flows toward the drain.
