It's PVC all the way, and yes, I believe the cable would be hardline, it always is. Apparantly the money guy for the tenant's GC for this project came and met with the planner at the local CATV and told him what he had in mind, was clearly told "no way" on 2". A second conversation was had over the phone where the money guy said that's what he had instructed the engineering firm to draw for bid purposes, was again told "no way". At any rate, that's what we carried in our bid(you can't get bid jobs around here by being generous) and I was unable to generate any interest when I started the job. Diggers 200 feet of trench ahead of me and ready to backfill, this ain't the time for engineering.
I never have fully understood the thinking of the non-construction savvy money guys who try to keep the costs down despite expert advice not to cut certain things.
All I want to do is get a mouse thru, pull a 1/4" nylon rope back thru to satisfy our contract.
BTW, I am not the owner, just a tool wearing foreman. These guys don't want to here from me.
