I have a good one for you ...

I need to specify a rope bridge which will be part of a larger wood structure in a family garden.

In addition to the rope bridge, they also want a big hammock thing that appears to be open to the public for walking on in another location of the structure.

MasterFormat currently has no section heading for Indiana Jones type structures so would appreciate suggestions for where to put these???

Thank you for your help!

Since people will walk on it, it is FLOORING.
Since rope is made fibers, it is CARPETING.

Michael seems to be on the right track. I would riff off one of these w/ something like:

LOL, Michael! I wish (owner furnished).

I've kind of made up my own section under the 11 68 XX heading, debating about putting them both in the same section as 11 68 53 Rope Structures or separating them out.

I appreciate the brainstorming!
