I think what Patrick is saying is simple, although it does not answer the question(s).

First my breakdown of what Patrick is saying:
You have a group that does the design and a group that does the development, once the design is complete you pass it to the developers and they know where to place all page sections, graphics and so on and so forth.

And so back to the question(s) !

So the coded website doesn't necessarily look exactly the way designers put it together in the PSD?
Not understanding what you mean by you abstract it.

Best,
Karl

We abstract out the process, in a sense. The designer has a grid or template or whatever they use to design/position elements, then send graphics to the developers. The devs have their frameworks they work with separately.

It lets designers focus on design and coders focus on building the site.

Good question. I avoid grid siites because of this question as well so I would be interested in the advice too.

Best,
Karl

When using a Grid FrameWork must you keep all the column classes and gutters or that is only needed when designing ?

I don't understand about grids, columns and gutters is if you use a grid template with the columns and gutters within Ps and place your graphics on the grid template, what good does it help ? I mean you still are going to position things where you want them and how you want them and CSS doesn't have a snapping feature that for example means you want a graphic here or there.

Instead have a grid template which you designed your site <http://line25.com/tutorials/create-a-gnarly-snowboarding-themed-web-design> on top, now your ready to build your page, you being to create your div, headers etc, you cut up your graphics and now how do you translate the design from the PSD to your grid, so you get an exact representation of your site whether it's a responsive site or not ?

I understand how a grid works in design, not so much in css because you have gutters, except in design it's a little easier you can essentially snap your graphics and designs in place, there is no code involved.
