What is a "standard" rack?

Coming from halfway across the country (& not knowing what my partner might/might not have for gear, i.e. what I need to bring), this does not help much. This is one of the more important pieces of information that one can provide for a route! Suggestions welcome.

For the Petit I left the larger stuff at home, including the 10-11 hexes, 3.5 and 4.0 Friend. I recall the route being easy to protect with pro up to 3 inches or so.
