Added some thoughts of mine + shared some related concepts/material

New page

I was doing an extension/''heavy'' renovation of (ironically) one of the other FSCJ Campuses. We were doing [[Metal Studs]] . The whole project was a bit of a mess, and we did have to go back and add these for some sections despite using 1/2in and 3/4in [[EMT Conduit]] . So i can ''personally say from experience'' they are definitely still used even with conduit.

Granted as you stated with the right planning, things can be laid out so they shouldn't be needed etc, although it all depends. [[Local Building Code Variations]] and even preferences put into the contract+blueprints can dictate decisions

For that site (despite 2/3 of the existing things using [[Set Screw EMT Fittings]] and thus their being confusion decently high up the chain of command, [[EMT Compression Fittings]] were required, so a bit less than one day was spent ''ripping out old work'' and putting it back in. Luckily most of it was quick, but fenangling close to final dimension emt, or having to guesstimate how much to cut off, in a cramped space, with a [[Reciprocating Saw]] etc is...an ordeal most would want to avoid.

I'll ramble about the planning stuff on the proper page for all that, but my point in this particular rant is:
1.) Yes they can be used even with [[Electrical Conduit]]
2.) Check with plans/other workers on the jobsite to make ''sure'' if they are needed/not needed and where
