Building our nest with Ryan Homes: Suggestion: "BLOCKING" for flat screen TV
http://building-sara-nest.blogspot.com/2011/04/suggestion-blocking-for-flat-screen-tv.html
Building our nest with Ryan Homes. Thursday, April 7, 2011. Suggestion: "BLOCKING" for flat screen TV. Today, representative from Guardian came to the site to mark the locations of our selections (Structural wiring/Flat screen rough-in/phone&TV cables). He suggested that we could request PM to install "BLOCKING" - a piece of wood that goes across the studs - which would help flat-screen TV installation. Posting this as i am hearing this term the first time. April 7, 2011 at 7:22 PM. Ryan Makes It Right.
