require the Contractor, at any time, to demonstrate the procedures it intends to follow in order to comply with all
the obligations contained herein.
The obligations contained herein apply to products and services provided by the Contractor, its sub -contractor or
any third party involved in the creation or development of the products and services to be delivered to the City of
Lubbock under this Contract. Failure to comply with any of the obligations contained herein, may result in the City
of Lubbock availing itself of any of its rights under the law and under this Contract including, but not limited to, its
right pertaining to termination or default.
The warranties contained herein are separate and discrete from any other warranties specified in this Contract, —"
and are not subject to any disclaimer of warranty, implied or expressed, or limitation to the Contractor's liability
which may be specified in this Contract, its appendices, its schedules, its annexes or any document incorporated

to be incorporated into the work without paying the tax at the time of purchase.
13. PROTECTION OF SUBSURFACE LINES AND STRUCTURES
r
It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to prosecute the work contemplated by the contract documents in such a
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

In all cases where explosives are to be used during the construction of the project contemplated by this contract, it
shall be the duty of the Contractor to notify each utility company having structures (above or below the ground) in
proximity to the site of the work of Contractor's intention to use explosives, and such notice shall be given
3
C
sufficiently in advance to enable the companies to take such steps as they may deem necessary to protect their.
property from injury. Such notice, however, shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for any damage
resulting from his blasting operations.
16. CONTRACTOR'S REPRESENTATIVE
The successful bidder shall be required to have a responsible local representative available at all times while the r
work is in progress under this contract. The successful bidder shall be required to furnish the name, address and
telephone number where such local representative may be reached during the time that the work contemplated by

Attention of each bidder is particularly called to the schedule of general prevailing rate of per diem wages included
in these contract documents. The wage rate which must be paid on this project shall not be less than 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.

notify the Owner's Representative not less than three full working days prior to the weekend or holiday he desires
to do work and obtain written permission from the Owner's Representative to do such work. The final decision on
whether to allow construction work requiring an inspector on weekends or holidays will be made by the Owner's --

CONTRACTOR CHECKLIST
A CONTRACTOR SHALL:
(1) provide coverage for its employees providing services on a project, for the duration of the project based on
proper reporting of classification codes and payroll amounts and filling of any coverage agreements;
(2) provide a certificate of coverage showing workers' compensation coverage to the governmental entity
prior to beginning work on the project;
(3) provide the governmental entity, prior to the end of the coverage period, a new certificate of coverage
showing extension of coverage, if the coverage period shown on the contractor's current certificate of
coverage ends during the duration of the project;
(4) obtain from each person providing services on a project, and provide to the governmental entity:
(A) a certificate of coverage, prior to that person beginning work on the project, so the governmental
entity will have on file certificates of coverage showing coverage for all persons providing
services on the project; and
(B) no later than seven days after receipt by the contractor, a new certificate of coverage showing
extension of coverage, if the coverage period shown on the current certificate of coverage ends
during the duration of the project;
(5) retain all required certificates of coverage on file for the duration of the project and for one year thereafter;
(6) notify the governmental entity in writing by certified mail or personal delivery, within ten (10) days after the
contractor knew or should have known, of any change that materially affects the provision of coverage of

shall make necessary arrangements and provide proper facilities and access for such observation and testing at
any location wherever such work is in preparation or progress. Contractor shall ascertain the scope of any
observation which may be contemplated by Owner or Owner's Representative and shall give ample notice as to
the time each part of the work will be ready for such observation. Owner or Owner's Representative may reject
any such work found to be defective or not in accordance with the contract documents, regardless of the stage of its completion or the time or place of discovery of such errors and regardless of whether Owner's Representative
has previously accepted the work through oversight or otherwise. If any such work should be covered without
approval or consent of the Owner, it must, if requested by Owner or Owner's Representative, be uncovered for
examination at Contractor's expense. In the event that any part of the work is being fabricated or manufactured at

approvals shall be borne by the Contractor unless otherwise provided herein. Any work which fails to meet the

i
l Neither observations by the Owner or Owner's Representative, nor inspections, tests, or approvals made by
Owner, Owner's Representative, or other persons authorized under the contract documents to make such
inspections, tests, or approvals shall relieve the Contractor from its obligation to perform the work in accordance
r with the requirements of the contract documents.
22. DEFECTS AND THEIR REMEDIES
It is expressly agreed that if the work or any part thereof, or any material brought on the site of the work for use in

in the line, grade, form dimensions, plans or materials for the work herein contemplated, or any part thereof, either
before or after the beginning of the construction, without affecting the validity of this contract and the
accompanying bond.
If such changes or alterations diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute the basis for a
claim for damages, or anticipated profits on the work that may be dispensed with. If they increase the amount of
work, and the increased work can fairly be classified under the specifications, such increase shall be paid
according to the quantity actually done and at the unit price established for such work under this contract;
otherwise such additional work shall be paid for as provided under Extra Work. In case the Owner shall make
such changes or alterations as shall make useless any work already done or material already furnished or used in
said work, then the Owner shall recompense the Contractor for any material or labor so used, and for actual
expenses incurred in preparation for the work as originally planned.
r- 24. EXTRA WORK
The term "extra work" as used in this contract shall be understood to mean and include all work that may be

I alteration or addition to the work as shown on the plans and specifications or contract documents and not covered
by Contractor's bid, except as provided under Changes and Alterations herein.
It is agreed that the Contractor shall perform all extra work under the direction of the Owner's Representative
when presented with a written work order signed by the Owner's Representative; subject, however, to the right of
the Contractor to require written confirmation of such extra work order by the Owner. It is also agreed that the
compensation to be paid to the Contractor for performing said extra work shall be determined by the following
methods:
Method (A) - By agreed unit prices; or
Method (B) By agreed lump sum; or
Method (C) - If neither Method (A) or Method (B) be agreed upon before the extra work is commenced,
then the Contractor shall be paid the lesser of the following: (1) actual field cost of the
extra work, plus fifteen (15%) percent; or (2) the amount that would have been charged
by a reasonable and prudent Contractor as a reasonable and necessary cost for
performance of the extra work.
P^ In the event said extra work be performed and paid for under Method (C)(1), then the provisions of this paragraph
l shall apply and the "actual field cost" is hereby defined to include the cost of all workmen, such as foremen,
timekeepers, mechanics and laborers, materials, supplies, teams, trucks, rentals on machinery and equipment, for
the time actually employed or used on such extra work, plus actual transportation charges necessarily incurred,
f together with all expenses incurred directly on account of such extra work, including Social Security, Old Age
Benefits, Maintenance Bonds, Public Liability and Property Damage and Workers' Compensation and all other
insurances as may be required by law or ordinances or directed by the Owner or Owner's Representative, or by
., 5
them agreed to. Owner's Representative may direct the form in which accounts of the actual field cost shall be
kept and records of these accounts shall be made available to the Owner's Representative. The Owner's
Representative may also specify in writing, before the work commences, the method of doing the work and the —
type and kind of machinery and equipment to be used; otherwise, these matters shall be determined by the
Contractor. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the prices for the use of machinery and equipment shall be
determined by using 100%, unless otherwise specified, of the latest Schedule of Equipment and Ownership
Expenses adopted by the Associated General Contractors of America. Where practical, the terms and prices for
the use of machinery and equipment shall be incorporated in the written extra work order. The fifteen percent
(15%) of the actual field cost to be paid to Contractor shall cover and compensate Contractor for its profit,
overhead, general superintendence and field office expense, and all other elements of cost and expense not
embraced within the actual field cost as herein defined, save that where the Contractor's Camp or Field Office
must be maintained primarily on account of such Extra Work, then the cost to maintain and operate the same shall
be included in the "actual field cost."
No claim for extra work of any kind will be allowed unless ordered in writing by Owner's Representative. In case
any orders or instructions appear to the Contractor to involve extra work for which Contractor should receive
compensation or an adjustment in the construction time, Contractor shall prior to commencement of such extra
work, make written request to the Owner's Representative for a written order authorizing such extra work. Should
a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute extra work or as to the payment therefore, and
the Owner's Representative insists upon its performance, the Contractor shall proceed with the work after making
written request for written order and shall keep adequate and accurate account of the actual field cost thereof, as
provided under Method (C)(1). If Contractor does not notify Owner's Representative prior to the commencement
any extra work, any claim for payment due to alleged extra work shall be deemed waived.
25. DISCREPANCIES AND OMISSIONS
It is further agreed that it is the intent of the contract documents that all work described in the bid, the
specifications, plans and other contract documents, is to be done for the prices quoted by the Contractor and that
such price shall include all appurtenances necessary to complete the work in accordance with the intent of these
contract documents as interpreted by Owner's Representative. Notices of any discrepancies or omissions in
these plans, specifications, or contract documents, shall be given to the Owners' Representative and a
clarification obtained before the bids are received, and if no such notice is received by the Owner's
Representative prior to the opening of bids, then it shall be deemed that the Contractor fully understands _
the work to be included and has provided sufficient sums in its bid to complete the work in accordance
with these plans and specifications. If Contractor does not notify Owner's Representative prior to bidding
of any discrepancies or omissions, then it shall be deemed for all purposes that the plans and
specifications are sufficient and adequate for completion of the project. It is further agreed that any
request for clarification must be submitted no later than five (5) calendar days prior to the opening of _
bids.
26. RIGHT OF OWNER TO MODIFY METHODS AND EQUIPMENT
If at any time the methods or equipment used by the Contractor are found to be inadequate to secure the quality of
work with the rate of progress required under this contract, the Owner or Owner's Representative may order the
Contractor in writing to increase their safety or improve their character and efficiency and the Contractor shall
comply with such order.
If, at any time, the working force of the Contractor is inadequate for securing the progress herein specified, the
Contractor shall, if so ordered in writing, increase its force or equipment, or both, to such an extent as to give
reasonable assurance of compliance with the schedule of progress.

writing prior to bidding and any necessary changes shall be adjusted as provided in the contract for changes in the —
work. In the absence of timely written notification to Owner's Representative of such variance or variances within

local laws, ordinances or regulations shall be deemed waived. If the Contractor, its employees or subcontractors
perform any work contrary to such laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, and without such notice to the Owner's

enter into contracts, shall be controlling, and shall be considered as part of this contract to the same effect as
though embodied herein.
33. SUBCONTRACTING
The Contractor agrees that it will retain personal control and will give its personal attention to the fulfillment of this —
contract. The Contractor further agrees that subletting of any portion or feature of the work, or materials required
in the performance of this contract, shall not relieve the Contractor from its full obligations to the Owner, as
provided by the contract documents.
34. TIME FOR SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
It is hereby understood and mutually agreed by and between the Contractor and the Owner, that the date of
beginning and time for completion as specified in the contract documents, of work to be done hereunder are
essential conditions of this contract; and it is further mutually understood and agreed that the work embraced in
this contract shall be commenced as provided in the contract documents.
If the Contractor should neglect, fail, or refuse to substantially complete the work within the time herein specified,
then the Contractor does hereby agree as part of the consideration for the awarding of this contract, the Owner
may withhold permanently from Contractor's total compensation, the sum of $300 (THREE HUNDRED —
DOLLARS) PER DAY, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages for the breach of the contract as herein set
forth for each and every working day that the Contractor shall be in default after the time stipulated for
substantially completing the work.

completion of the work described herein is reasonable time for the completion of the same, taking into
consideration the average climatic range and conditions and usual industrial conditions prevailing in this locality.

the Owner would sustain in such event would be difficult and/or impossible to estimate, however, the amount
agreed upon herein is a reasonable forecast of the amount necessary to render just compensation to Owner, and
is expressly agreed to be not disproportionate to actual damages as measured at time of breach.

TIME AND ORDER OF COMPLETION
It is the meaning and intent of this contract, unless otherwise herein specifically provided, that the Contractor shall
be allowed to prosecute its work at such time and sessions, in such order of precedence, and in such manner as
shall be most conductive to economy of construction; provided, however, that the order and time of prosecution
shall be such that the work shall be substantially completed as a whole and in part, in accordance with this
contract, the plans and specifications, and within the time of completion designated in the bid; provided, also, that
when the Owner is having other work done, either by contract or by its own force, the Owner's Representative may
direct the time and manner of constructing work done under this contract so that conflicts will be avoided and the
construction of the various works being done for the Owner shall be harmonized.
The Contractor shall submit, at such times as may reasonably be requested by the Owner's Representative,
schedules which shall show the order in which the Contractor intends to carry on the work, with dates at which the
Contractor will start the several parts of the work and estimated dates of completion of the several parts.
TIME OF PERFORMANCE
The Contractor agrees that it has submitted its bid in full recognition of the time required for the completion of this
project, taking into consideration the average climatic range and industrial conditions prevailing in this locality, and
has considered the liquidated damage provisions of paragraph 34 hereinabove set forth and expressly agrees that
it shall not be entitled to, nor will it request, an extension of time on this contract, except when its work has been
delayed by an act or neglect of the Owner, Owner's Representative, employees of the Owner or other contractors
employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the work, or by strike, walkouts, acts of God or the public
enemy, fire or flood. Any request for extension shall be in writing with the written request for same setting forth all
justifications, in detail, for the request, and submitted to Owner's Representative within twenty (20) calendar days
of the occurrence of the event causing said delay. A failure by Owner's Representative to affirmatively grant the
extension no later than twenty (20) calendar days of written submission by Contractor shall be deemed a denial,
and final. Further, in the absence of timely written notification of such delay and request for extension, as provided
herein, any request for extension by Contractor shall be deemed waived.
HINDRANCE AND DELAYS
In executing the contract, the Contractor agrees that in undertaking to complete the work within the time herein
fixed, Contractor has taken into consideration and made allowances for all hindrances and delays incident to such
work, whether growing out of delays due to unusual and unanticipated circumstances, difficulties or delays in
securing material or workmen, or any other cause or occurrence. No charge shall be made by the Contractor for
hindrance or delays from any cause during the progress of any part of the work embraced in this contract except
where the work is stopped by order of the Owner or Owner's Representative for the Owner's convenience, in
which event, such expense as in the sole judgment of the Owner's Representative that is caused by such
stoppage shall be paid by Owner to Contractor.
QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENTS
No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be allowed, but the actual measured or computed length,
area, solid contents, number and weight only shall be considered, unless otherwise specifically provided. In the
event this contract is let on a unit price basis, then Owner and Contractor agree that this contract, including the
specifications, plans and other contract documents are intended to show clearly all work to be done and material
to be furnished hereunder. Where the estimated quantities are shown, and only when same are expressly stated
to be estimates, for the various classes of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract, they
are approximate and are to be used only as a basis for estimating the probable cost of the work and for comparing
their bids offered for the work. In the event the amount of work to be done and materials to be furnished are
expressly stated to be estimated, and only when same are expressly stated to be estimated, it is understood and
agreed that the actual amount of work to be done and the materials to be furnished under this contract may differ
somewhat from these estimates, and that where the basis for payment under this contract is the unit price method,
payment shall be for the actual amount of work done and materials furnished on the project.

The Contractor shall take proper means to protect the adjacent or adjoining property or properties in any way --
encountered, which may be injured or seriously affected by any process of construction to be undertaken under
this agreement, from any damage or injury by reason of said process of construction; and Contractor shall be
liable for any and all claims for such damage on account of his failure to fully protect all adjacent property. Without
limiting, in any way, manner and form, the indemnity provided by Contractor in paragraph 27 hereof, the
Contractor agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Owner, and any of its officers, agents and employees,
against any and all claims or damages due to any injury to any adjacent or adjoining property, related to, arising
from or growing out of the performance of this contract. —

expenses incurred by Contractor and for well and truly performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner
and according to this agreement, the attached specifications, plans, contract documents and requirements of
Owner's Representative. "-
41. PAYMENTS
No payments made or certificates given shall be considered as conclusive evidence of the performance of the
contract, either wholly or in part, nor shall any certificate or payment be considered as acceptance of defective
work. Contractor shall at any time requested during the progress of the work furnish the Owner or Owner's
Representative with a verifying certificate showing the Contractor's total outstanding indebtedness in connection
with the work. Before final payment is made, Contractor shall satisfy Owner, by affidavit or otherwise, that there
are no outstanding liens against Owner's premises by reason of any work under the contract. Acceptance by
Contractor of final payment of the contract price shall constitute a waiver of all claims against Owner, Owner's —
agents and employees, which have not theretofore been timely filed as provided in this contract.
42. PARTIAL PAYMENTS
On or before the tenth day of each month, the Contractor shall submit to Owner's Representative an application for
partial payment or, if the Contractor does not submit such application, the Owner's Representative shall determine
the amount to be partially paid. Owner's Representative shall review said application for partial payment if
submitted, and the progress of the work made by the Contractor and if found to be in order, shall prepare a
certificate for partial payment showing as completely as practical the total value of the work done by the Contractor
up to and including the last day of the preceding month. The determination of the partial payment by the Owner's
Representative shall be in accordance with Paragraph 14 hereof.
The Owner shall then pay the Contractor on or before the fifteenth day of the current month the total amount of the
Owner's Representative's Certificate of Partial Payment, less 5% of the amount thereof, which 5% shall be
retained until final payment, and further, less all previous payments and all further sums that may be retained by
Owner under the terms of the contract documents.
Any partial payment made hereunder shall not constitute a waiver by the Owner of any and all other rights to
enforce the express terms of the contract documents, and all remedies provided therein, as to any and all work
performed, to be performed and/or materials delivered hereunder, including, but limited to, work to which said
partial payment is attributable.

43. SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
Contractor shall give Owner's Representative written notice of substantial completion. Within thirty-one (31)
working days after the Contractor has given the Owner's Representative written notice that the work has been
substantially completed, the Owner's Representative and/or the Owner shall inspect the work and within said time,
if the work be found to be substantially completed in accordance with the contract documents, the Owner's
Representative shall issue to the Owner and Contractor a certificate of substantial completion. Notwithstanding
the issuance of a certificate of substantial completion, Contractor shall proceed with diligence to finally complete
the work within the time provided in this contract.
44. FINAL COMPLETION AND PAYMENT
The Contractor shall give written notice to Owner's Representative of final completion. Upon written notice of final
completion, the Owner's Representative shall proceed to make final measurement to determine whether final
completion has occurred. If the Owner's Representative determines final completion has occurred, Owner's
Representative shall so certify to the Owner. Upon certification by Owner's Representative of final completion,
Owner shall pay to the Contractor on or before the 31 st working day after the date of certification of final
completion, the balance due Contractor under the terms of this agreement. Neither the certification of final
r completion nor the final payment, nor any provisions in the contract documents shall relieve the Contractor of the
obligation for fulfillment of any warranty which may be required in the contract documents and/or any warranty or
t warranties implied by law or otherwise.
45. CORRECTION OF WORK
k
Contractor shall promptly remove from Owner's premises all materials condemned by the Owner's Representative
r., on account of failure to conform to the contract documents, whether actually incorporated in the work or not, and
i Contractor shall at its own expense promptly replace such condemned materials with other materials conforming
to the requirements of the contract documents. Contractor shall also bear the expense of restoring all work of
other contractors damaged by any such removal or replacement. If Contractor does not remove and replace any
F
such condemned work within a reasonable time after a written notice by the Owner or the Owner's Representative,
E Owner may remove and replace it at Contractor's expense.
Neither the final payment, nor certification of final completion or substantial completion, nor any provision in the
contract documents shall relieve the Contractor of responsibility for faulty materials or workmanship, and
Contractor shall remedy any defects due thereto and pay for any damage to other work resulting therefrom, which
shall appear within a period of one (1) year from the date of certification of final completion by Owner's
Representative.
46. PAYMENT WITHHELD
The Owner or Owner's Representative may, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify
the whole or part of any certification to such extent as may be necessary to protect itself from loss on account of:
(a) Defective work not remedied and/or work not performed.
(b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating possible filing of claims.
(c) Failure of the Contractor to make payments promptly to subcontractors or for materials or labor.
(d) Damage to another contractor.

amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them.
t

i
47. CLAIM OR DISPUTE
It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the Contractor
shall be in writing and fled with the Owner's Representative within fifteen (15) calendar days after the Owner's
Representative has given any direction, order or instruction to which the Contractor desires to take exception.
Timely written notice of dispute as provided in this contract of any decision by Owner's Representative or Owner -`
shall be a condition precedent to the bringing and/or assertion of any action or claim by Contractor of any right
under this Contract. If the matters set forth in the notice of dispute are not granted or otherwise responded to by
Owner's Representative within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of notice of dispute by Owner's --
Representative, said objections shall be deemed denied. Any decision by the Owner's Representative, or deemed
denial by the Owner's Representative, shall be final and conclusive in the absence of fraud. It is further agreed
that the acceptance by the Contractor of the final payment shall be a bar to any and all claims of the Contractor,
and constitute a waiver of the right to assert any claim against Owner, Owner's agents and employees and
Owner's Representative, by Contractor.
48. NON-COMPLIANCE AND/OR ABANDONMENT BY CONTRACTOR —
In case the Contractor should (1) abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within fifteen (15) calendar days after
written notification from the Owner or the Owner's Representative, or (2) if the Contractor fails to comply with the
written orders of the Owner's Representative, when such orders are consistent with this contract, 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. In the event a bond is not required by law, or otherwise obtained by the Contractor, no
further notice of such non-compliance to Contractor shall be required. —
After receiving said notice of abandonment or non-compliance , the Contractor shall not remove from the work any -
machinery, equipment, 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 the event the Contractor, or Surety, whichever is applicable, should fail to commence compliance with the notice
hereinbefore provided within ten (10) calendar days after service of such notice, and/or shall fail to proceed with `
diligence to complete the project as contemplated and in compliance with all terms and provisions of the contract
documents, then the Owner may exercise any and all remedies available to it pursuant to law, contract, equity or
otherwise, including, but not limited to, providing for completion of the work in either of the following elective
manners:
(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 its Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to the Owner; or
(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. 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.
18
r
In the event the Owner's Representative elects to complete the work, as described above, when the work shall
have been finally completed, the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified and certification of completion as
provided in paragraph 44 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, if applicable, 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 certification 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, if applicable, 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, if applicable. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract price,
and the Contractor and/or his Surety, if applicable, fail to pay the amount due the Owner within the time

primed by others.
3.2 PREPARATION
A. General: Remove hardware and hardware accessories, plates, machined surfaces, lighting fixtures,
and similar items already installed that are not to be painted. 1f removal is impractical or impossible
because of the size or weight of the item, provide surface -applied protection before surface
preparation and painting.
After completing painting operations in each space or area, reinstall items removed using
workers skilled in the trades involved.
B. Cleaning: Before applying paint or other surface treatments, clean the substrates of substances that
could impair the bond of the various coatings. Remove oil and grease before cleaning.
1. Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the cleaning process
will not fall on wet, newly painted surfaces.
C. Surface Preparation: Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to manufacturer's written
instructions for each particular substrate condition and as specified.
1. Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime.
2. Cementitious Materials: Prepare concrete, concrete masonry block, cement plaster, and
mineral -fiber -reinforced cement panel surfaces to be painted. Remove efflorescence, chalk,
dust, dirt, grease, oils, and release agents. Roughen as required to remove glaze. If
hardeners or sealers have been used to improve curing, use mechanical methods of surface
preparation.
a. Use abrasive blast -cleaning methods if recommended by paint manufacturer.
b. Determine alkalinity and moisture content of surfaces by performing appropriate tests.
If surfaces are sufficiently alkaline to cause the finish paint to blister and bum, correct
this condition before application. Do not paint surfaces where moisture content
exceeds that permitted in manufacturer's written instructions.
C. Clean concrete floors to be painted with a 5 percent solution of muriatic acid or other
etching cleaner. Flush the floor with clean water to remove acid, neutralize with
ammonia, rinse, allow to dry, and vacuum before painting.
3. Wood: Clean surfaces of dirt, oil, and other foreign substances with scrapers, mineral spirits,
and sandpaper, as required. Sand surfaces exposed to view smooth and dust off.
a. Scrape and clean small, dry, seasoned knots, and apply a thin coat of white shellac
or other recommended knot sealer before applying primer. After priming, fill holes and
imperfections in finish surfaces with putty or plastic wood filler. Sand smooth when
dried.
b. Prime, stain, or seal wood to be painted immediately on delivery. Prime edges, ends,
faces, undersides, and backsides of wood, including cabinets, counters, cases, and
paneling.
C. When transparent finish is required, backprime with spar varnish.

mechanical cleaning methods that comply with the Steel Structures Painting Council's
(SSPC) recommendations.
a. Blast steel surfaces clean as recommended by paint system manufacturer and
according to requirements of SSPC-SP 10.
b. Treat bare and sandblasted or pickled clean metal with a metal treatment wash coat
before priming.
C. Touch up bare areas and shop -applied prime coats that have been damaged.
Wire -brush, clean with solvents recommended by paint manufacturer, and touch up
with the same primer as the shop coat.
5. Galvanized Surfaces: Clean galvanized surfaces with nonpetroleum-based solvents so
surface is free of oil and surface contaminants. Remove pretreatment from galvanized sheet
metal fabricated from coil stock by mechanical methods.
D. Materials Preparation: Mix and prepare paint materials according to manufacturer's written
instructions.
1. Maintain containers used in mixing and applying paint in a clean condition, free of foreign
materials and residue.
2. Stir material before application to produce a mixture of uniform density. Stir as required
during application. Do not stir surface film into material. If necessary, remove surface film
and strain material before using.
3.Use only thinners approved by paint manufacturer and only within recommended limits.
E. Tinting: Tint each undercoat a lighter shade to simplify identification of each coat when multiple
coats of the same material are applied. Tint undercoats to match the color of the finish coat, but
provide sufficient differences in shade of undercoats to distinguish each separate coat.
3.3 APPLICATION
A. General: Apply paint according to manufacturer's written instructions. Use applicators and --
techniques best suited for substrate and type of material being applied.
1. Paint colors, surface treatments, and finishes are indicated in the schedules.
2. Do not paint over dirt, rust, scale, grease, moisture, scuffed surfaces, or conditions —
detrimental to formation of a durable paint film.
3. Provide finish coats that are compatible with primers used.
4. The term "exposed surfaces" includes areas visible when permanent or built-in fixtures, —
convector covers, covers for finned -tube radiation, grilles, and similar components are in
place. Extend coatings in these areas, as required, to maintain the system integrity and
provide desired protection.
5. Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar exposed "—
surfaces. Before the final installation of equipment, paint surfaces behind permanently fixed
equipment or furniture with prime coat only.
6. Paint interior surfaces of ducts with a flat, nonspecular black paint where visible through —
registers or grilles.
7. Paint back sides of access panels and removable or hinged covers to match exposed

PAINTING 09900 - 6
Copyright 1995 AIA MASTERSPEC 8/95
B. Scheduling Painting: Apply first coat to surfaces that have been cleaned, pretreated, or otherwise
prepared for painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before subsequent surface
deterioration.
1. The number of coats and the film thickness required are the same regardless of application
method. Do not apply succeeding coats until the previous coat has cured as recommended
by the manufacturer. If sanding is required to produce a smooth, even surface according to
manufacturer's written instructions, sand between applications.
2. Omit primer on metal surfaces that have been shop primed and touchup painted.
3. If undercoats, stains, or other conditions show through final coat of paint, apply additional
coats until paint film is of uniform finish, color, and appearance. Give special attention to
ensure edges, corners, crevices, welds, and exposed fasteners receive a dry film thickness
equivalent to that of flat surfaces.
4. Allow sufficient time between successive coats to permit proper drying. Do not recoat
surfaces until paint has dried to where it feels firm, does not deform or feel sticky under
moderate thumb pressure, and where application of another coat of paint does not cause the
undercoat to lift or lose adhesion.
C. Application Procedures: Apply paints and -coatings by brush, roller, spray, or other applicators
according to manufacturer's written instructions.
1. Brushes: Use brushes best suited for the type of material applied. Use brush of appropriate

PART 1-GENERAL
CHECKING DOCUMENTS:
The drawings and the specifications are numbered consecutively. The Contractor shall check the
drawings and specifications thoroughly and shall notify the Architect of any discrepancies or
omissions of sheets or pages. Upon notification, the Architect will promptly provide the Contractor
f with any missing portions of the drawings or specifications. No discrepancies or omissions of sheets
E or pages of the contract documents will relieve the Contractor of his duty to provide all work required
by the complete contract documents.
GENERAL:
In general, the lines and ducts to be installed by the various trades under these specifications shall be
run as indicated, as specified herein, as required by particular conditions at the site, and as required
to conform to the generally accepted standards as to complete the work in a neat and satisfactorily
workable manner. The following is a general outline concerning the running of various lines and
ducts and is to be excepted where the drawings or conditions at the building necessitate deviating
from these standards.
All piping and ductwork for the mechanical trade shall be concealed in chases in finished areas,
except as indicated on the drawings. Horizontal lines run in areas that have ceilings shall be run
concealed in those ceilings, unless otherwise specifically indicated or directed.
Piping and ductwork may be run exposed in machinery and equipment spaces, where serving as
connections to equipment items in finished rooms where exposed connections are required, and
elsewhere as indicated on the drawings or required.
The Contractor shall thoroughly acquaint himself with the details of the construction and finishes
before submitting his bid as no allowances will be made because of the Contractor's unfamiliarity
with these details. All concealed lines shall be installed as required by the pace of the general
construction to precede that general construction.
The mechanical plans do not give exact details as to elevations of lines and ducts, exact locations,
etc., and do not show all the offsets, control lines, pilot lines and other installation details. The
Contractor shall carefully lay out his work at the site to conform to the architectural and structural
conditions, to provide proper grading of lines, to avoid all obstruction, to conform to details of
installation supplied by the manufacturers of the equipment to be installed, and thereby to provide an
integrated, satisfactorily operating installation.
The mechanical plans do not give exact locations of outlets, fixtures, equipment items, etc. The exact
location of each item shall be determined by reference to the general plans and to all detail drawings,
equipment drawings, roughing -in drawings, etc., by measurements at the building, and in cooperation
with other sections. Minor relocations necessitated by the conditions at the site or as directed by the
Architect shall be made without any additional cost accruing to the Owner.

diffusers, grilles, outlets, panelboards, etc. Coordinate all items to avoid conflicts at the site.
2. Lines requiring grade to function such as condensate drain lines.
3. Large ducts and pipes with critical clearances.
4. Conduit, water lines, and other lines whose routing is not critical and whose function would
not be impaired by bends and offsets.
Piping and ducts serving outlets on items of equipment shall be run in the most appropriate manner.
Where the equipment has built-in chases, the lines shall be contained therein. Where the equipment is
of the open type, the lines shall be run as close as possible to the underside of the top and in a neat
and inconspicuous manner.
Exceptions and inconsistencies in plans and specifications shall be brought to the Architect's attention _
before the contract is signed. Otherwise, the Contractor shall be responsible for any and all changes
and additions that may be necessary to accommodate his particular apparatus, material, or equipment.
The Contractor shall distinctly understand that the work described herein and shown on the
accompanying drawings shall result in a finished and working job, and any item required to

l indicated, as specified herein, as required by particular conditions at the site, and as required to
t conform to the generally accepted standards as to complete the work in a neat and satisfactorily
workable manner. The following is a general outline concerning the running of electrical lines and is
to be excepted where the drawings or conditions at the building necessitate deviating from these
• standards.
General Construction: The Contractor shall thoroughly acquaint himself with the details of the
construction and finishes before submitting his bid as no allowances will be made because of the
Contractor's unfamiliarity with these details. Place all inserts in masonry walls while they are under
construction. All concealed lines shall be installed as required by the pace of the general construction
to precede that general construction.
Field Conditions: The electrical plans do not give exact details as to elevations of electrical lines,
exact locations, etc., and do not show all the offsets, and other installation details. The Contractor
shall carefully lay out his work at the site to conform to the architectural and structural conditions, to
avoid all obstruction, to conform to details of installation supplied by the manufacturers of the
equipment to be installed, and thereby to provide an integrated, satisfactorily operating installation.
Locations of Electrical Devices: The electrical plans show diagrammatically the locations of the
various electrical outlets and apparatus and the method of circuiting and controlling them. Exact
locations of these outlets and apparatus shall be determined by reference to the general plans and to
all detail drawings, equipment drawings, roughing -in drawings, etc., by measurements at the building,
and in cooperation with other sections, and in all cases shall be subject to the approval of the
Architect. The Architect reserves the right to make any reasonable change in location of any outlet or
apparatus before installation (within 10 feet of location shown on drawings) or after installation if an
obvious conflict exists, without additional cost to the Owner.
Space Requirements: The Contractor shall be responsible for the proper fitting of his material and
apparatus into the space. Should the particular equipment which any bidder proposes to install
require other space conditions than those indicated on the drawings, he shall arrange for such space
with the Architect before submitting his bid. Should changes become necessary on account of failure
to comply with this clause, the Contractor shall make such necessary changes at his (the Contractor's)
own expense.
Working Drawings: The Contractor shall submit working scale drawings of all his apparatus and
equipment which in any way varies from these specifications and plans, which shall be checked by the
Architect before the work is started, and interferences with the structural conditions shall be corrected
by the Contractor before the work proceeds.

surface of the building in a neat and orderly manner. Provide adequate headroom.
Bends: Install no more than the equivalent of four 90-degree bends between boxes. Make field bends ^'
with approved bending devices. Use hydraulic one-shot bender to fabricate bends in metal conduit
larger than 2 inch size. Make bends and offsets so the inside diameter is not reduced. Unless,
otherwise indicated, keep the legs of a bend in the same plane and the straight legs of offsets parallel. -�
Do not install bends or offsets in which conduit is crushed, deformed or otherwise injured.
Conduit Bodies: Use conduit bodies to make sharp changes in direction.
Expansion Joints: Provide suitable fittings to accommodate expansions and deflection where conduit
crosses control and expansion joints. ._
Completion: Complete raceway installation before starting conductor installation.
Sizes: Size and install raceways so that conductors may be drawn in without injury or excessive
strain. Sizes of conduits shown on the drawings are minimum sizes to be installed.
Connections: Use lengths of flexible metal conduit, not less than 12 inches long and not more than
24 inches long at final connections to all motors, generators, controls and other devices subject to
movement because of vibration or mechanical adjustment. In damp or wet locations, and where
installed outdoors, use liquidtight flexible metal conduit.
Connections to Recessed Lighting Fixtures: Use maximum of 6 feet flexible metal conduit at
connections to recessed lighting fixtures, and elsewhere as required.
Around Heat Producing Equipment: Do not install raceways within twelve inches of steam and hot
water pipes, breeching and flues, except where crossings are unavoidable, and then keep raceways at --�
least six inches 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.
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 both ends of
raceways with an approved sealing compound to prevent "breathing" and moisture condensation
within the raceways.
RACEWAYS AND FITTINGS 16110-4
F
Protection of Raceways: Seal ends of all raceways with blank discs ("pennies"), push pennies or
other approved closers during construction to prevent foreign matter from entering raceway. Do not
pull any conductors into raceways until all plastering in the vicinity is completed. Swab out all
raceways before pulling in conductors.
Penetrations: Wherever raceways pass through floors, walls partitions, etc., carefully fill any space
q 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
PM materials through which the raceway passes.
Roof Penetrations: Route conduit through roof openings for piping and ductwork or through suitable
roof jack with pitch pocket. Coordinate location with roofing installation.

be installed by this Contractor, a suitable pull line to facilitate future installation of wiring. Lines
shall be free from splices and shall have not less than 12 inches of slack at each end of the pull line.
Identify each end of each line with a linen tag bearing complete information as to the purpose of the
raceway and the location of its other end. All lines shall be nylon or polyethylene cord with a tensile
strength not less than 200 pounds.
JOINING AND TERMINATING CONDUITS:
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.
Joining Electrical Metallic Tubing: Cut conduit square using saw or pipe cutter; de -burr cut ends.
Bring conduit to shoulder of fittings and fasten securely.
Joining PVC Conduit: Join PVC conduit using cement as recommended by the manufacturer. Wipe
PVC conduit dry and clean before joining. Apply full coat of cement to entire area inserted in fitting.
Allow joint to cure for twenty minutes, minimum.
Terminations: Where raceways are terminated with locknuts and bushings, align the raceway to enter
squarely, and install the locknuts with dished part against the box. Where terminations cannot be
made secure with one locknut, use two locknuts, one inside and one outside the box. Where
terminating in threaded hubs, screw the raceway or fitting tight into the hub so the end bears against
the wire protection shoulder. Where chase nipples are used, align the raceway so the coupling is
square to the box, and tighten the chase nipples so no threads are exposed.
CONDUIT SUPPORTS:
Support Spacing: Use minimum spacing as directed by National Electrical Code, but space hangers
more closely where required by conditions.
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.
RACEWAYS AND FITTINGS 16110-5
Individual Conduits: Support conduits running vertically or horizontally with galvanized malleable
iron one hole clamps. Carry individually supported horizontal conduits 1-1/4" and larger on
galvanized steel hangers. Use no perforated strap iron as hanger material. Arrange supports to
prevent misalignment of conduit during wire installation.
Above Removable Ceilings: 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.
Do not attach conduit to ceiling support wires. 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.
Multiple Conduits: Where multiple raceways are run horizontally at the same elevations, they may be
supported on trapezes formed of sections of Unistrut or approved equal 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. Group related conduits together. Provide space on each rack for 25 percent
additional conduit.
