Jobsite Quick-Reference

Rough-In Standards (One-Pager)

The pocketable jobsite version of our full rough-in manual. One page, top-priority rules only. Designed to live on a clipboard, in a job folder, or pinned next to the framer's plans.

What This Standard Covers

  • Conduit-size quick reference table by cable type
  • Box height and orientation cheat sheet
  • Slack-loop minimums at every termination
  • Top three coordination rules with framers and electricians

Who It Is For

  • Framers and electricians who need a one-page reference at the wall
  • Project managers walking the rough-in
  • Subs who do not have time to read the full standard mid-job

When To Use It

  • On the jobsite, mid-rough-in
  • During quick coordination meetings with trades
  • When the full standard is too much for a fast decision
