|Excessive Exertion||Forbidden (see footnote for exceptions)<ref>Chol HaMoed K'Hilchato (perek bet seif 36 & footnotes). Aruch HaShulchan 540:4 forbids great exertion. Pri Megadim M”Z 540:3 permits even great exertion. (Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 66:38 adds that the pri megadim means that it’s permitted if it’s a maaseh hedyot or shinui.) See Nishmat Adam 110:1. Netivei Moed 7:2 says tzorech hamoed must be hedyot and one should still minimize the exertion. Sheloshim Yom Kodem HaChag (Chol HaMoed p. 163) writes based on Zichron Shlomo that exertion is prohibited whenever the tircha is great relative to the desired outcome. According to this approach, great exertion would be permitted for a great need, and small exertion would be permitted for a small need. But great exertion would not be permitted for a small need. However, Chol HaMoed KeHilchato (perek bet footnote 98) quotes this position of the Zichrom Shlomo and writes that the purpose of his distinction is only to explain contradictions in the poskim and cannot be used to establish new halachic principles.

Shulchan Aruch O.C. 538:1 rules that if someone forgot to do the melacha before the moed or was lazy and thought there was time but he ended up without time, he isn't considered as though he planned it for the moed. Gra 538:1 writes that he's only considered as having planned it for the moed if he intentionally plans to do it on the moed. Chazon Ovadia p. 186 cites this from Meiri and Michtam as well. </ref>||Forbidden<ref>Meiri (19a s.v. k'shetitbonen), Aguda (Moed Katan 1:8), Pri Megadim (M"Z 533:1), [https://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=8020&st=&pgnum=26 Shulchan Atzi Shitim 1:2], Mishna Brurah 541:4, Chol HaMoed Zichron Shlomo (pg 12) </ref>||Permitted<ref>Rosh, Mordechai, Meiri (19a s.v. k'shetitbonen), Shulchan Aruch O.C. 533:1, Chol HaMoed Zichron Shlomo (pg 36) </ref>||Permitted<ref>Meiri (19a s.v. k'shetitbonen), Chol HaMoed Zichron Shlomo (pg 47) </ref>||Forbidden <ref>Moed Katan 11a and 12b, Chol HaMoed Zichron Shlomo (pg 61) </ref>||- | ||
