I’m not sure if this is the right section, but I’ll just post my question here:
What percentage deviation from the planned values should be expected or accepted?
Example: A room is supposed to be 350 cm (11 ft 6 in) wide according to the plan, but it is only 335 cm (11 ft). Would this still be within the tolerance range where nothing can be done?

100-300 ml less oil than specified is filled. This is not a problem since the given amounts are only approximate values anyway, and the oil pan and other components in the oil circuit never completely drain during an oil change. Filling up to the minimum level is completely sufficient.

From a technical point of view, you might be right.

For example, if you have a rough dimension of 3.5 m (11 ft 6 in) and on both walls there is a service or installation layer, you can easily lose about 15 cm (6 inches).
Ask for clarification first; you can still file a complaint afterwards.
@hampshire Of course, I assumed we were talking about the structural dimensions. Additionally, the installations should be visible on the detailed 1:50 scale plans. However, you are probably right; it’s just speculation if you don’t know the conditions and the plans. Fraud would be my last suspicion, as that is more complicated than measurable or countable issues. More likely it is carelessness or a mistake in judgment. I would ask the site management for clarification.
Hello,
A deviation of 150mm (6 inches) is quite significant. To me, such dimensional errors often suggest differences between the various planning documents. Was there a change in the architect’s plans that the structural builder might have missed or perhaps worked from outdated drawings?
It would be worth asking about this!
