Set the Trade Stacking Order Before a Congested Zone
Agree on elevations and install sequence before multiple trades fill the same zone. Use the signed coordination set and field conditions-not whoever arrives first.
Stop if In this zone we have [duct/pipe/conduit/sprinkler]. What is the approved stacking order and which elevation is fixed before we start hanging?
Watch out Do not claim space by installing early when the coordination set shows another required route or clearance.
Check Confirm the current coordinated drawing and elevation references Identify gravity, life-safety, electrical-clearance, and service-access constraints Mark fixed versus movable systems Confirm who installs first and where shared supports are prohibited Document unresolved conflicts before crews build into them
