What plans show an overhead dimensional relationship on each individual floor of telecommunications spaces, work area outlets, and primary pathways?
Floor plans
What is the purpose of NCS?
The purpose of NCS is to allow consistent and streamlined communication among owners and design/construction teams.
True or False: Adoption of the NCS by the building and construction industry is mandatory.
False. Adoption is voluntary; however, several government agencies have adopted the standard.
What is the name of the resource that is a standard system used to organize and manage construction drawings for virtually any project?
Uniform Drawing System (UDS)
What is a MasterFormat?

- Submittal forms and log
If a standard form for tracking daily activity is not available, what should be developed in its place?
A project log
What should a project log include?
The log should reflect a detailed log of all work undertaken in a day, whether work is complete, and plans for the following day.

- Vendor/manufacturer performance warranty & extended equipment warranty
- Licensing agreements
True or False: The format used for the as-built drawings must be agreed upon prior to the beginning of the project so information can be gathered properly.
True
What should a commissioning plan document?
*Administration
*Labeling of all components
