Rough Framing
I'm asking these questions under the wall framing category, but they apply to all facets of the house framing. I have exhausted my sources in search for some sort of standard(s) regarding rough framing tolerances in new homes. Maybe someone out there can help.
I find nothing really useful in the IRC. What little is in the NAHB's "Residential Construction Performance Guidelines" is, of course, very thin and liberal. Since the TRCC's performance standards are really a lite version of that NAHB document, their stuff is of no assistance. The Home Owners Warranty Corporation's "Insurance/Warranty Documents" is also of little use, especially since HOW is defunct. Construction Sciences Research Foundation's "Framing and Sheathing" is now a document I can no longer find, though I used to refer to it.
Are there ASTM standards regarding this that I am unaware of? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Aaron
