What supports this checklist?

This is an editorial planning worksheet. PortaFab's project questionnaire distinguishes geometry, use and loading. FCP's guide specification separates the supplied structure from work assigned to others. Cisco-Eagle's slab guidance explains why support conditions need site-specific review. These sources inform the questions; none endorses this worksheet.

OSHA 1910.22 addresses maximum intended loads, safe access and walking-surface maintenance. Ask your project professionals to identify all applicable requirements.
