(OP)
read a note on a detail sheet and it was new to me -
"electrical or plumbing conduit shall be spaled"
The detail was pipe in concrete beam - any ideas - piping and conduit requirements found in representative sections of specifications -
thanks in advance

When I am working on a problem, I never think about beauty but when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.
