Have any of the folks that have done prefab run into any union restrictions around what they can and can’t prefab?

01:01:55
We are facing a lot of opposition to prefabbing from the locals in our jurisdiction.

01:05:14
Start simple. Start with your hangers.

01:06:20
One of the locals in our jurisdiction explicitly prohibits the pre-fabrication of hangers.
