While working on telecom-takeoff for 303-mariposa-residence jared-defanti used (2) Cat5e + (1) RG6 assemblies for most outlets. We determined that (3) Cat5e assemblies would likely be required instead. Because the required assemblies do not exist, and the takeoff would have to be deleted and replaced with heating-designations, I suggested leaving the existing work alone, citing that the limited information makes likely our superiors will have a different interpretation than us. If we changed the takeoff then we would have to change it again.
Ultimately we did change the takeoff because there were less than a dozen outlets in the project.
This is a good example of a scope question which I believe should be saved for review, not raised with the senior.
-
The maximum project cost impact of the decision is low, being only the difference between RG6 and Cat5e.
-
The result of the decision will not affect our future takeoff.
-
We would waste more of the senior's time in the overhead of explaining the project and the issue early, than if it has to be fixed during the allotted time they prepared for.
