charge of forfeiture of deposit. The contract documents, may be examined without charge as noted in the Notice to
Bidders.

The construction covered by the contract documents shall be fully completed within 60 (SIXTY) calendar days from the
date specified in the Notice to Proceed issued by the City of Lubbock to the successful bidder.
The Contractor will be permitted to prosecute the work in the order of his own choosing, provided, however, the City
reserves the right to require the Contractor to submit a progress schedule of the work contemplated by the contract
documents. In the event the City requires a progress schedule to be submitted, and it is determined by the City
that the progress of the work is not in accordance with the progress schedule so submitted, the City may direct the

execute an affidavit that all bills for labor, materials and incidentals incurred in the construction of the
improvements contemplated by the contract documents have been paid in full and that there are no claims pending, of
which the Contractor has been notified.
7. MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP
The intent of these contract documents is that only materials and workmanship of the best quality and grade will be
furnished. The fact that the specifications may fail to be sufficiently complete in some detail will not relieve
the Contractor of full responsibility for providing materials of high quality and for protecting them adequately
until incorporated into the project. The presence or absence of a representative of the City on the site will not
relieve the Contractor of full responsibility of complying with this provision. The specifications for materials
and methods set forth in the contract documents provide minimum standards of quality which the Owner believes
necessary to procure a satisfactory project.
8. GUARANTEES
All equipment and materials incorporated in the project and all construction shall be guaranteed against defective
materials and workmanship. Prior to final acceptance, the Contractor shall furnish to the owner, a written general
guarantee which shall provide that the Contractor shall remedy any defects in the work, and pay for any and all

Lubbock).

10. PROTECTION OF THE WORK
The Contractor shall be responsible for the care, preservation, conservation, and protection of all materials,
supplies, machinery, equipment, tools, apparatus, accessories, facilities, and all means of construction, and any
and all parts of the work whether the Contractor has been paid, partially paid, or not paid for such work, until the
date the City issues its certificate of completion to Contractor. The City reserves the right, after the bids have
been opened and before the contract.has been awarded, to require of a bidder the following information:
(a) The experience record of the bidder showing completed Jobs of a similar nature to the one covered by the
proposed contract and all work in progress with bond amounts and percentage completed.
(b) A sworn statement of the current financial condition of the bidder.
(c) Equipment schedule.
11. TEXAS STATE SALES TAX
This contract is issued by an organization which qualifies for exemption provisions pursuant to provisions of
Article 20.04 of the Texas Limited Sales, Excise and Use Tax Act.

be incorporated into the work without paying the tax at the time of purchase.
r.F
L
12. PROTECTION OF SUBSURFACE LINES AND STRUCTURES

way as to exercise due care to locate and prevent damage to all underground pipelines, utility lines, conduits or
other underground structures which might or could be damaged by Contractor during the construction of the project
contemplated by these contract documents. The City of Lubbock agrees that it will furnish Contractor the location
of all such underground lines and utilities of which it has knowledge. However, such fact shall not relieve the
Contractor of his responsibilities aforementioned. All such underground lines or structures cut or damaged by
Contractor during the prosecution of the work contemplated by this contract shall be repaired immediately by
Contractor to the satisfaction of the City of Lubbock, Texas, at Contractor's expense.
13. BARRICADES AND SAFETY MEASURES

necessary. The Contractor will be held responsible for all damage to the work due to failure of barricades, signs,
and lights to protect it, and when damage is incurred, the damaged portion shall be immediately removed and replaced
by Contractor at his own cost and expense. The Contractor's responsibility for maintenance of barricades, signs,
and lights shall not cease until the date of issuance to Contractor of City's certificate of acceptance of the
project.
14. EXPLOSIVES
The use of explosives will not be permitted unless written permission to do so is obtained by the Contractor from
the City. In all cases where written permission is obtained for the use of explosives, the Contractor shall assume
full responsibility for all damage which may occur as a direct or indirect result of the blasting. In addition, in
all cases where explosives are authorized to be used, the Contractor shall use utmost care so as not to endanger
life or property and the Contractor shall further use only such methods as are currently utilized by persons, firms,
or corporations engaged in similar type of construction activity.

specified in the schedule of general prevailing rates of per diem wages as above mentioned. The bidders' attention
is further directed to the requirements of Article 5159a, Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes providing for the
payment of the wage schedules above mentioned and the bidder's obligations thereunder. The inclusion of the
schedule of general prevailing rate of per diem wages in these contract documents does not release the Contractor
from compliance with any wage law that may be applicable. Construction work under this contract requiring an
inspector will not be performed on weekends or holidays unless the following conditions exist:
(1) The project being constructed is essential to the City of Lubbock's ability to provide the necessary service
to its citizens.
(2) Delays in construction are due to factors outside the control of the Contractor. The Contractor is
approaching the penalty provisions of the contract and Contractor can show he has made a diligent effort to
complete the contract within the allotted time.

notify the owner's Representative not less than three full working days prior to the weekend or holiday he desires

such sums as they deem proper for the time, expense and trouble incident to the appeal, and if the appeal was taken
without reasonable cause, they may award damages for any delay occasioned thereby. The arbiters shall fix their own
compensation, unless otherwise provided by agreement, and shall assess the costs and charges of the arbitration upon
either or both parties. The award of the arbiters must be made in writing and shall not be open to objection on
account of the form of proceedings or award.
50. ABANDONMENT BY CONTRACTOR
In case the Contractor should abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within ten (10) days after written
notification from the Owner or the Owner's Representative, or if the Contractor fails to comply with the orders of
the Owner's Representative, when such orders are consistent with this contract, this Agreement, or the
F", Specifications hereto attached, then the Surety on the bond shall be notified in writing and directed to complete
the work and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the Contractor.
After receiving said notice of abandonment, the Contractor shall not remove from the work any machinery, equipment,
r tools, materials or supplies then on the job, but the same, together with any materials and equipment under the
contract for work, may be held for use on the work by the Owner or the Surety of the.Contractor, or another
contractor, in completion of the work; and the Contractor shall not receive any rental or credit therefore (except
when used in connection with Extra Work, where credit shall be allowed as provided for under paragraph 24 of this
contract); it being understood that the use of such equipment and materials will ultimately reduce the cost to
complete the work and be reflected in the final settlement.
In case the Surety should fail to commence compliance with the notice for completion hereinbefore provided for
within ten (10) days after service of such notice, then the Owner may provide for completion of the work in either.
of the following elective manners:
7
(a) The owner may employ such force of men and use of machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies as
said owner may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery,
equipment, tools, materials and supplies to said Contractor, and the expense so charged shall be deducted
and paid by the owner out of such moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at any time become due to the
Contractor under and by virtue of this Agreement. In case such expense is less than the sum which would
have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by the Contractor, then said
Contractor shall receive the difference. In case such expense is greater than the sum which would have been
payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by said Contractor, then the Contractor and/or
his Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to the Owner; or
r
(b) The Owner, under sealed bids, after notice published as required by law, at least twice in a newspaper
having a general circulation in the County of location of the work, may let the contract for the completion
of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this contract. In case
of any increase in cost to the Owner under the new contract as compared to what would have been the cost
under this contract, such increase shall be charged to the Contractor and the Surety shall be and remain
bound therefore. However,' should the"cost to complete any such new contract prove to be less than that
which would have been the cost to complete the work under this contract, the Contractor or his Surety shall
be credited therewith.
When the work shall have been substantially completed, the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified and
certificates of completion and acceptance, as provided in paragraph 42 hereinabove set forth, shall be issued. A
complete itemized statement of the contract accounts, certified to by Owner's Representative as being correct shall
then be prepared and delivered to Contractor and his Surety, whereon the Contractor or his Surety, or the Owner as
the case may be, shall pay the balance due as reflected by said statement within 30 days after the date of
certificate of completion.
In the event the statement of accounts shows that the cost to complete the work is less than that which would have
been the cost to the Owner had the work been completed by the Contractor under the terms of this contract, or when
the Contractor and/or his Surety shall pay the balance shown to be due by them to the Owner, then all machinery,
equipment, tools, materials or supplies left on the site of the work shall be turned over to the Contractor and/or
his Surety. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract price, and the Contractor and/or his Surety
fail'to pay the amount due the owner within the time designated hereinabove, and there remains any machinery,
equipment, tools, materials or supplies on the site of the work, notice thereof, together with an itemized list of
such equipment and materials shall be mailed to the Contractor and his Surety at the respective addresses designated
in this contract; provided, however, that actual written notice given in any manner will satisfy this condition.
After mailing, or other giving of such notice, such property shall be held at the risk of the Contractor and his
Surety subject only to the duty of the Owner to exercise ordinary care to protect such property. After fifteen (it)
days from the date of said notice the owner may sell such machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies and
apply the net sum derived from such sale to the credit of the Contractor and his Surety. Such sale may be made at —
either public or private sale, with or without notice, as the Owner may elect. The Owner shall release any
machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies which remain on the *jobsite and belong to persons other than
the Contractor or his Surety, to their proper owners. _
51. ABANDONMENT BY OWNER
In case the Owner shall fail to comply with the terms of this contract, and should fail or refuse to comply with
said terms within ten (10) days after written notification by the Contractor, then the Contractor may suspend or
wholly abandon the work, and may remove therefrom all machinery, tools, and equipment, and all materials on the
ground that have not been included in payments to the Contractor and have not been incorporated into the work.
Thereupon, the owner's Representative shall make an estimate of the total amount earned by the Contractor, which
estimate shall include the value of all work actually completed by said Contractor at the prices stated in the the
attached proposal, the value of all partially completed work at a fair and equitable price, and the amount of all —
Extra Work performed at the prices agreed upon, or provided for by the terms of this contract, and a reasonable sum
to cover the cost of any provisions made by the Contractor to carry the whole work to completion, and which cannot
be utilized. The Owner's Representative shall then make a final statement of the balance,due the Contractor by
deducting from the above estimate all previous payments by the Owner and all other sums that may be retained by the —
Owner under the terms of this Agreement, and shall certify same to the Owner who shall pay to the Contractor on or
before thirty (30) days after the date of the notification by the Contractor the balance shown by said final
statement as due the Contractor, under the terms of this Agreement.
52.` BONDS
The successful bidder shall be required to furnish a performance bond and payment bond in accordance with Article
5160, Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes in the amount of 100% of the total contract price, in the event said
contract price exceeds $25,000.00. If the contract price does not exceed $25,000.00, the statutory bonds will not
be required. All bonds, if required, shall be submitted on forms supplied by the Owner, and executed by an approved —
p i I
Surety Company authorized to do business in the State of Texas. And it is further agreed that this contract shall
not be in effect until such bonds are so furnished.
53. SPECIAL CONDITIONS
in the event special conditions are contained herein as part of the contract documents and said special conditions
conflict with any of the general conditions contained in this contract, then in such event the special conditions
shall control.
54. LOSSES FROM NATURAL CAUSES
Unless otherwise specified herein, all loss or damage to the Contractor arising out of the nature of the work to be
done, or from the action of the elements, or from any unforeseen circumstance and the prosecution of the same, or
from unusual obstructions or difficulties which may be encountered in the prosecution of the work, shall be
sustained and borne by the Contractor at his own cost and expense.
55. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
Contractor is, and shall remain, an independent contractor with full, complete and exclusive power and authority to
direct, supervise, and control his own employees and to determine the method of the performance of the work covered
hereby. The fact that the Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right to observe Contractor's work during
his performance and to carry out the other prerogatives which are expressly reserved to and vested in the Owner or
Owner's Representative hereunder, is not intended to and shall not at any time change or effect the status of the
Contractor as an independent contractor with respect to either the owner or Owner's Representative or to the
Contractor's own employees or to any other person, firm, or corporation.
56. CLEANING UP
The Contractor shall at all times keep the premises free from accumulation of debris caused by the work, and at the
completion of the work he shall remove all such debris and also his tools, scaffolding, and surplus materials and
shall leave the work room clean or its equivalent. The work shall be left in good order and condition. In case of
dispute Owner may remove the debris and charge the cost to the Contractor.

PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.01 INSTALLATION OF BUILDING RACEWAYS
A. All wiring of every description shall be run in conduit or
electrical metallic tubing unless noted or specified otherwise.
Conduits may run exposed in machinery and electrical rooms
and unfinished areas. All other conduits shall be run concealed
unless otherwise noted. All exposed runs shall be installed
parallel to the surface of the building in a neat and orderly
manner.
B. Types.: All conduits installed in .wet or damp locations, or on
roofs shall be rigid galvanized steel conduits. Above grade
interior conduits shall be rigid galvanized steel conduits,
intermediate metal conduits. In sizes up to and including 4",
electrical metallic tubing may be used in dry,locations where
not subject to mechanical damage. EMT may be used in air
conditioned spaces, such as accessible ceilings, dry wall
partitions and exposed where 6' above the floor. EMT shall not
be used outside, in concrete, underground, in underfloor spaces,
in locations likely to be damp, or exposed within 6' of the
floor. Conduits installed below grade in slabs or buried in
earth shall be PVC or rigid galvanized steel.
C. Sizes: Size and install raceways so that conductors may be
drawn in without injury or excessive strain. Make field bends
with approved bending devices. Do not install bends or offsets
in which conduit is crushed, deformed or otherwise injured.
Sizes of conduits shown on the drawings are minimum sizes,to be
installed.
D. Connections:, Use lengths of flexible metal conduit, not less
than 12" long at final connections to all motors, generators,
controls and other devices subject to movement because of
vibration or mechanical adjustment. Use flexible metal conduit
.also at connections to recessed lighting fixtures, and elsewhere
as required. In damp or wet locations, and where installed
outdoors, use liquidtight flexible metal conduit.
16110-2
ra
E. Around Heat Producing Equipment: Do not install raceways within
3" of steam and hot water pipes, breeching and flues, except
where crossings are unavoidable, and then keep raceways at least
1" from insulation on the pipe, breeching or flue crossed.
Wherever possible, avoid installing raceways directly above or
in close proximity to boilers and other like objects operating
�..
at high temperatures.
'
F. Damp or Wet Locations: In damp or wet locations make every
'
effort to avoid installing raceways in a manner which will
create moisture traps. Where they must be so installed, seal
r`
both ends of raceways with an approved sealing compound to
t
prevent "breathing" and moisture condensation within the
raceways.
G. Different Systems: In systems operating at more than 300 volts
between phase conductors, where different phase conductors are
to be run to a common gang wall switch box, install a separate
conduit for each different phase wire and its return switch leg,
and provide substantial barriers between adjacent switches in
the box so that two different phase wires will not be the same
compartment.
H. Joining Rigid Conduits: Join with threaded couplings. Ream out
all conduit ends after threading. Secure rigid conduits at
panel boxes, junction boxes, pull boxes, switchboards, support
.-
boxes, or sheet metal outlet boxes by galvanized locknuts,
inside and outside, with insulating bushing inside. Unthreaded
set screw type couplings or connectors are not acceptable in
rigid conduit systems. No running threads shall be used
anywhere in conduit systems.
I. Protection of Raceways: Seal ends of all raceways with blank
discs ("pennies"), push pennies or other approved closers during
�-'
construction. Do not pull any conductors into raceways until
all plastering in the vicinity is completed. Swab out all
raceways before pulling in conductors.
J. Penetrations: Wherever raceways pass through floors, walls
partitions, etc., carefully fill any space between the outside
of the raceway and the building material to prevent passage of
air, water, smoke and fumes. Filling material shall be fire
resistive and, in general, similar to the basic building
materials through which the raceway passes.
r• 3.02 CONDUIT SUPPORTS
A. Support spacing: Use minimum spacing as directed by National
Electrical Code, but space hangers more closely where required
^, by conditions.
B. Vertical conduit risers: Support vertical conduits at each
floor by means of riser clamps or U-bolts, clamping them to a
steel channel bridging the opening in the floor.
C. Individual Conduits: Support conduits running vertically or
horizontally with galvanized malleable iron one hole clamps.
Carry individually supported horizontal conduits 1-1/4" and
r.. larger on Kindorf No. 150 or Steel City No. C-149 hangers. Use
no perforated strap iron as hanger material. Where conduits
smaller than 1-1/4" are installed above metal lath and plaster
ceilings or mechanically suspended dry ceilings of the
16110-3
r,
i
non -removable type,:they may be supported on ceiling runner
channels. Where conduits smaller than 1-1/4",are installed
above removable ceilings, attach them to the structure or bar
joists (where present) or support them on threaded hanger rods
with clips. Do not use any wire to support conduits or to attach
conduits to supporting members. Locate conduits a sufficient
distance above the ceiling to permit removal of the ceiling
panels. Locate them so as not to hinder access to mechanical
and electrical equipment through the ceiling panels.
D. Multiple Conduits: Where multiple raceways are run horizontally
at the same elevations, they may be supported on trapezes formed
of sections of Unistrut angle iron or channels suspended on rods
or pipes. Size trapeze members including the suspension rods
for the number size.and loaded weight of the conduits they are
to support. Space them as required for the smallest conduit
supported.
3.03 INSTALLATION OF OUTLET BOXES
A. Usage: Provide at each outlet or device of whatever character a
metal outlet box in which conduits shall terminate.
B. Boxes recessed in construction: Sheet steel boxes.
C. For Lighting.Fixture Outlets: 4" octagonal by 1-1/2" minimum
depth .with 3/8" fixture stud for incandescent lights which are
surface mounted, wall mounted or suspended.
D. For Wall Switches, Receptacles and Communications Use: Use
4"x4" size with proper square cornered tile wall cover, plaster
cover, or finishing plate, except where construction will not
permit or the device requires a.larger box,
E. Wall Mounted Telephone Outlet Boxes: 4-11/16" square by 2-1/8"
deep, unless otherwise noted or unless wall construction
requires a smaller box.
F. Boxes for Exposed Work: Cast metal boxes.
