roughing
Crude preliminary shaping
Roughing is preliminary or incomplete work that establishes basic structure before finishing: roughing in the plumbing, roughing out a sketch.
In hockey and other contact sports, roughing is a penalty for unnecessary physical contact—shoving or hitting beyond what the rules allow.
To go roughing it is to live without usual comforts, especially while camping.
