We were never given real design plans, just a powerpoint of where the cameras and drops should be.
The building was torched, so it was gutted to the studs, and that is when we did our rough in. Brian seems pretty clear on the code but on the other hand, we did not penetrate any fire rated items. We drilled through 2x4's, 2x6's and OSB I believe was the flooring material. There was no sheetrock. I can't remember all the details but I know none of the electrical that was there was caulked, but that was months ago. If it had been caulked, I would have told the guys to caulk ours.
As far as the GC complying, I think that is a stretch. What if electrical fails, does the GC rework the panel? Plumbing? I think if an item fails due to a particular vendors fault, that vendor should have the opportunity to correct.
What really ticks me off is this is a small 3,000 sg ft building that has been under remodel for 6 months, and they are just getting permits for rough-in and no drywall has gone in. Every time I try to get an update it's like pulling teeth.
6 months to demo and rough in, yet he won't give me 2 days to come caulk. I don't think there is an appropriate emoji here...
