LCJ:

I just now did on your suggestion, but don't find any real tolerances that I can use. Besides in residential work I will be hard put to pass of fIBC on these folks.

I've got a garage header/lintel that is 1" out of level and cannot convince this builder to set it level. He has some walls that I can fit into the TRCC lax-ass standards of 3/8" out of plumb in 32". This means a 12' wall can be 1.68" out of plumb. Looks great from the front door . . . like maybe M.C. Escher was the architect - and builder . . .
