3/4" EMT, exposed

What’s in this rate

This unit is installing 3/4-inch electrical metallic tubing where the pipe stays visible. A crew cuts, reams, and couples the sticks, then straps the run to structure at normal interior height. The rate is per linear foot of finished raceway. It covers the tubing, set-screw couplings and connectors, exposed straps, and cleanup of cuttings. Wire, boxes, and above-ceiling runs are separate units.
