§06Note on citation
Each reference above is cited on the page that uses it, with the reference code of that page in the “cited on” line. Where a technical-body definition (ACI, ASTM) is at stake, that formal definition governs — the reference-base definitions on this property are written in plain English for readability, not as substitutes for the technical standards. Statutory references (NC General Statutes Chapter 87) are cited by chapter and article rather than by section, because the operative section numbers are updated by the legislature.

§07Frequently asked questions
Where does the reference base draw its licensing information from?
From the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors and from NC General Statutes Chapter 87, Article 1. The operative rules — threshold, classifications, license-limit brackets — are set by the Board under the statute.
Does the reference base cite ACI or ASTM standards directly?
Generically, on the glossary page. Where a technical-body definition governs, that formal definition takes precedence over the plain-English reference-base definition.
Where is the fuller glossary?
On the parent mothership at LCCBCC-GL-017. It carries 20 entries, including three project terms (recorded position, first-party evidence, corroboration) that sit on the parent rather than on this reference base.
How is a page on this reference base cited?
By URL and by reference code. Every page carries an LCCBCC-XX-O identifier in the file-record capsule near the top and in the cite-this-page line at the foot. Reference codes are never reused.
