Need help identifying roughed in plumbing


I believe the drain I have listed as “Sink or tub” is the tub drain and the drain I have listed as “??” is a sink drain. I was expecting to see a “T” already tied to the sink drain though. The house is complete and there is no “T” installed. Can someone confirm or deny my thoughts? Thank you!

It looks like "sink or tub" has a trap under that rock, so assuming that is 2" pipe, it would be a tub or shower... and the center of that pipe would be about 15" from the wall, whereas the toilet would be 12" from the wall. Lay a 2x4 edgewise against those vent pipes so that it is 1 1/2" thick and measure out to the center of the toilet and shower pipes. "??" would be your sink, because a sink would have the drain coming out of the wall and the trap above ground under the vanity where you can access it. The "furnace condensate" should be a floor drain, imo.

Thanks xSleeper! I will check the measurements when I get home today. Here is a picture of the finished product. The condensate is a floor drain.

The “??” Drain was my biggest concern due to no T. ​​​​​​​

For most tubs you don't usually want to pour concrete over the trap and right up to the pipe, because what are the chances that the plumber set that pipe EXACTLY where your tub/shower drain needs to be when you haven't even framed up a wall to measure from. There usually needs to be a minimum 12x16 cutout.

The stub out with the cap is the shower drain (because of the trap below).
The pipe between the toilet and the shower is for the vanity. It should have been installed with a san tee, but was probably missed.
