Default standard kitchen cabinet depth

:I have made a lot of kitchen cabinets, but I have never decided for

: overall depth of 24 13/16" or so with overlay doors. Countertops are
: 25" deep typically or maybe a bit more, and they won't overhang the
: outer face of the cabinet by very much if you have overlay doors and a
: 24" carcase. Everybody in the world knows the answer here but me, I
: imagine.

Except me. What the hell is a 'carcase'?
