Plumb
and Level
During my years as a home builder I noticed even experienced
carpenters misusing the terms plumb and level. With that being the case, it is
no wonder that there is confusion among typical homeowners.
In simple terms, level means horizontal and plumb means vertical.
When constructing a building, the floor should be perfectly horizontal (level) and
the walls should be perfectly vertical (plumb).
Typical
Level can be used to check both level and plumb.
