Where is the rough opening of a window typically indicated?

The rough opening of a window is typically indicated on the window schedule. The window schedule is a critical component of architectural drawings that provides detailed information about all the windows in the project. It lists specific dimensions, including the width and height of the rough openings, along with other important notes such as the type of window and materials to be used. By referring to the window schedule, contractors and builders can ensure accurate placement and sizing, which is essential for a proper fit and installation.

In the framing plan, while there may be indications of where windows will be placed, it does not always specify the rough openings with the detail found in the window schedule. Similarly, section views provide valuable insights into the vertical relationships of components but do not typically break down the specifics needed for rough openings directly. Notes on the drawing might provide additional context or instructions, but they usually do not summarize all window openings in one consolidated format like the window schedule does.
