CSA 16 storage and water-main schedules
A storage tank and a connecting main can have separate procurement and construction milestones. Match supplier deposits to the correct scope, and carry unbilled commitments forward in the job report. Keeping those costs distinct helps an owner see whether cash is tied up in materials or in work awaiting payment.
