PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
PART 1 -GENERAL
1.01 DESCRIPTION
A. Specifications: The Technical Specifications consist of three (3) parts: General, Products, and Execution.
The General part of a Specification contains GeneralRequirements which govern the Work. The Products
and Execution parts modify and supplement the General Requirements by detailed requirements for the
Work and shall always govern whenever there appears to be a conflict.
B. Scope of Work:
1. The Work to be done consists of the furnishing of all labor, materials, and equipment, and the
performance of all Work included in this Contract.
2. Work Included:
a. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, superintendence, materials, plant power, light, heat,
fuel, water, tools, appliances, equipment, supplies, and means of construction necessary
for proper performance and completion of the Work. The Contractor shall obtain and pay
for all necessary local building permits. The Contractor shall perform and complete the
Work in the manner best calculated to promote rapid construction consistent with safety
of life and property and to the satisfaction of the Engineer, and in strict accordance with
the Contract Documents. The Contractor shall clean up the Work and maintain it during
and after construction, until accepted, and shall do all Work and pay all costs incidental
thereto. He shall repair or restore all structures and property that may be damaged or
disturbed during performance of the Work.
b. The cost of incidental work described in these Project Requirements, for which there are
no specific Contract Items, shall be considered as part of the general cost of doing the
Work and shall be included in the prices for the various Contract Items. No additional
payment will be made, therefor.
c. The Contractor shall provide and maintain such modern plant, tools, and equipment as
may be necessary, in the opinion of the Engineer, to perform in a satisfactory and
acceptable manner all the Work required by this Contract. Only equipment of established
reputation and proven efficiency shall be used. The Contractor shall be solely responsible
for the adequacy of his workmanship, materials, and equipment, prior approval of the
Engineer notwithstanding.
3. Public Utility Installations and Structures:
a. Public utility installations and structures shall be understood to include all poles, tracks,

other public or private property which may be affected by the Work shall be deemed
included hereunder.
01000-1

b. The Contract Documents contain data relative to existing public utility installations and
structures above and below the ground surface. These data are not guaranteed as to their
completeness or accuracy, and it is the responsibility of the Contractor to make his own
investigations to inform himself fully of the character, condition, and extent of all such
installations and structures as may be encountered and as may affect the construction
operations.
c. The Contractor shall protect all public utility installations and structures from damage
during the Work. Access across any buried public utility installation or structure shall be
made to avoid any damage to these facilities. All required protective devices and
construction shall be provided by the Contractor at his expense. All existing public utilities
damaged by the Contractor shall be repaired by the Contractor, at his expense. No
separate payment shall be made for such protection or repairs to publicutility installations
or structures.
d. Public utility installations or structures owned or controlled by the Owner or other
governmental body, which are shown on the Drawings to be removed, relocated, replaced,
or rebuilt by the Contractor, shall be considered as a part of the general cost of doing the
Work and shall be included in the prices bid for the various Contract Items. No separate
payment shall be made therefor.
e. Where public utility installations of structures owned or controlled by the Owner or other
governmental body are encountered during the course of the Work, and are not indicated
on the Drawings or in the Specifications, and when, in the opinion of the Engineer,
removal, relocation, replacement, or rebuilding is necessary to complete the Work under
this Contract, such Work shall be accomplished by the utility having jurisdiction, or such
Work may be ordered, in writing by the Engineer, for the Contractor to accomplish. If such
work is accomplished by the utility having jurisdiction it will be carried out expeditiously,
and the Contractor shall give full cooperation to permit the utility to complete the removal,
relocation, replacement, or rebuilding as required. If the Contractor accomplishes such
work, it will be paid for as extra work as provided in the Agreement.
f. The Contractor shall, at all times in performance of the Work, employ acceptable methods
and exercise reasonable care and skill so as to avoid unnecessary delay, injury, damage,
or destruction of public utility installations and structures; and shall, at all times in the

utility services, and shall cooperate fully with the owners thereof to that end.
g. The Contractor shall give written notice to Owner and other governmental utility
departments and other owners of public utilities of the location of his proposed
construction operations, at least 48-hours in advance of breaking ground in any area or
on any unit of the Work.

A. Drawings: When obtaining data and information from the Drawings, figures shall be used in preference
to scaled dimensions, and large-scale drawings in preference to small-scale drawings.
B. Supplementary Drawings:
01000-2

1. When, in the opinion of the Engineer, it becomes necessary to explain more fully the Work to be
done or to illustrate the Work further or to show any changes which may be required, drawings
known as Supplementary Drawings, with specifications pertaining thereto, will be prepared by the
Engineer, and the Contractor will be furnished one (1) complete set of reproducible black-line
bond copies (24 inches by 36 inches) and one (1) reproducible copy of the Project Manual.
2. The Supplementary Drawings shall be binding upon the Contractor with the same force as the
Contract Drawings. Where such Supplementary Drawings require either less or more than the
estimated quantities of Work, credit to the Owner or compensation therefor to the Contractor shall
be subject to the terms of the Agreement.
C. Contractor to Check Drawings and Data:
1. The Contractor shall verify all dimensions, quantities, and details shown on the Drawings,
Supplementary Drawings, Schedules, Specifications, or other data received from the Engineer,
and shall notify him of all errors, omissions, conflicts, and discrepancies found therein. Failure to
discover or correct errors, conflicts, or discrepancies shall not relieve the Contractor of full

therefrom, nor from rectifying such conditions at his own expense. He will not be allowed to take
advantage of any errors or omissions, as full instructions will be furnished by the Engineer, should
such errors or omissions be discovered.

E. Intent:
1. All Work called for in the Specifications applicable to this Contract, but not shown on the Drawings
in their present form, or vice versa, shall be of like effect as if shown or mentioned in both. Work
not specified in either the Drawings or in theSpecifications butinvolved in carrying out their intent
or in the complete and proper execution of the Work, is required and shall be performed by the
Contractor as though it were specifically delineated or described.
2. The apparent silence of the Specifications as to any detail, or the apparent omission from them
of a detailed description concerning any work to be done and materials to be furnished, shall be
regarded as meaning that only the best general practice is to prevail and that only material and
workmanship of the best quality is to be used, the interpretation of these Specifications shall be
made upon that basis.
