What should the Washington setup and general-labor crew brief cover at Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Penn Quarter?

A split-hall show at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center needs two dock instructions. Halls A, B, and C use the 7th and M Street NW side, while D and E use 9th and M; each exhibit hall has one freight-and-personnel door.

What goes on the Washington call sheet?

Put the hall, correct entrance, truck window, equipment, build work, venue labor limits, and strike sequence on every call. Stage leads by dock group, and require an approved transfer plan before moving people or materials between hall clusters.
