Framing, Rough Lumber

A framing system in which the framing is of full dimensional, rough-cut lumber. The lumber has been cut to rough size, but has not been dressed or surfaced.

Rough cut lumber is true to size. A 2” x 4” stud is actually 2” x 4”, as opposed to modern standard framing lumber, where a 2” x 4” stud is 1 ½” x 3 ½”.

Included in Cost: Rough lumber framing, decking/sheathing, fasteners, and installation labor.

Enter a percentage between 0 and 100.

Application note: If any of the solid masonry interior walls are exposed with no drywall installed over them, adjust the drywall on walls percentage accordingly.

For example: If a home has 75% stud 2 x 4 and 25% solid brick interior wall framing, and 10% of the solid brick is exposed with no drywall, you should adjust the drywall percentage to 90% drywall. If all of the framing was covered with drywall, you don't have to do anything since RCT includes 100% drywall from the knowledge tables.
