AFFIDAVITS OF BILLS PAID
The City of Lubbock reserves the right, prior to final acceptance of this project to require the Contractor to
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.
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.
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 damages of any nature whatsoever resulting in such defects, when such defects appear within ONE year
from date of final acceptance of the work as a result of defective materials or workmanship, at no cost to the
Owner (City of Lubbock).
PLANS FOR THE CONTRACTOR
The contractor will be furnished two sets of plans and specifications, and related contract documents for his use
during construction. Plans and specifications for use during construction will only be furnished directly to the
Contractor. The Contractor shall then distribute copies of plans and specifications to suppliers, subcontractors or
others, as required for proper prosecution of the work contemplated by the Contractor.
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 intended 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.
12. 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.
The Contractor must obtain a limited sales, excise and use tax permit which shall enable him to buy the
materials to be incorporated into the work without paying the tax at the time of purchase.
13. PROTECTION OF SUBSURFACE LINES AND STRUCTURES
Y, 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 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.
14. BARRICADES AND SAFETY MEASURES
r! The contractor shall, at his own expense, furnish and erect such barricades, fences, lights and danger signals,
and shall take such other precautionary measures for the protection of persons, property and the work as may be
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.
15. 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.
Explosive materials shall not be stored or kept at the construction site by the Contractor.
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
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
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 this contract is in progress.

General Conditions of the contract documents, from an underwriter authorized to do business in the State of
Texas and satisfactory to the City. Proof of coverage shall be furnished to the City and written notice of
cancellation or any material change will be provided ten (10) days in advance of cancellation or change. All
policies shall contain an agreement on the part of the insurer waiving the right to subrogation. The Contractor
shall procure and carry at his sole cost and expense through the life of this contract, insurance protection as
hereinafter specified. Coverage in excess of that specified herein also shall be acceptable. Such insurance shall
be carried with an insurance company authorized to transact business in the State of Texas and shall cover all ,
operations in connection with this contract, whether performed by the Contractor or a subcontractor, or separate
policies shall be provided covering the operation of each subcontractor. A certificate of insurance specifying
each and all coverage's shall be submitted prior to contract execution.
The insurance certificates furnished shall name the City as an additional insured. A Worker's
Compensation Coverage statement from the Contractor to the effect that no work on this particular
project shall be subcontracted will be accepted as an alternative. It shall be the contractors
responsibility to provide to the owner all proof of coverage insurance documents including workers
compensation coverage for each subcontractor
18. LABOR AND WORKING HOURS
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.
(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.
Before construction work requiring an inspector is to be performed on weekends or holidays, the Contractor must
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
Representative.
In any event, if a condition should occur or arise at the site of this project or from the work being done under this
contract which is hazardous or dangerous to property or life, the Contractor shall immediately commence work,
regardless of the day of the week or the time of day, to correct or alleviate such condition so that it is no longer
dangerous to property or life.
19. PAYMENT OF EMPLOYEES AND FILING OF PAYROLLS
The contractor and each of his subcontractors shall pay each of his employees engaged in work on the project
under this contract in full (less mandatory legal deductions) in cash, or by check readily cashable without
discount, not less often than once each week. The Contractor and each of his subcontractors engaged at the site
of the work shall not later than the seventh day following the payment of wages, file with the Owner's
Representative, or Engineer, a certified, sworn, legible copy of such payroll. This shall contain the name of each
employee, his classification, the number of hours worked on each day, rate of pay, and net pay. The affidavit
shall state that the copy is a true and correct copy of such payroll, that no rebates or deductions (except as
shown) have been made, or will in the future be made from the wages paid as shown thereon. The Contractor
must classify employees according to one of the classifications set forth in the schedule of general prevailing rate
of per diem wages, which schedule is included in the contract documents.
The Contractor shall forfeit as a penalty to the City of Lubbock on whose behalf this contract is made, ten dollars
for each laborer, workman, or mechanic employed for each calendar day, or portion thereof, such laborer,
workman or mechanic is paid less than the wages assigned to his particular classification as set forth in the
schedule of general prevailing rate of per diem wages included in these contract documents.

CHARACTER OF WORKMEN
The Contractor agrees to employ only orderly and competent men, skillful in the performance in the type of work
required under this contract, to do the work; and agrees that whenever the Owner's Representative shall inform
him in writing that any man or men on the work, are, in his opinion, incompetent, unfaithful, or disorderly, such
man or men shall be discharged from the work and shall not again be employed on the work without the Owner's
Representative's written consent.
CONSTRUCTION PLANT
The Contractor shall provide all labor, tools, equipment, machinery and materials necessary in the prosecution
and completion of this contract where it is not otherwise specifically provided that Owner shall furnish same, and
it is also understood that Owner shall not be held responsible for the care, preservation, conservation, or
protection of any materials, tools, equipment or machinery or any part of the work until it is finally completed and
accepted.
The building of structures for the housing of men or equipment will be permitted only at such places as the
Owner's Representative shall direct, and the sanitary conditions of the grounds in or about such structure shall at
all times be maintained in a manner satisfactory to the Owner's Representative.
SANITATION
Necessary sanitary conveniences for the use of laborers on the work site, properly secluded from public
observation, shall be constructed and maintained by the Contractor in such manner and at such points as shall
be approved by the Owner's Representative and their use shall be strictly enforced.
OBSERVATION AND TESTING
The Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right at all reasonable times to observe and test the work.
Contractor shall make necessary arrangements and provide proper facilities and access for such observation and
testing at any location wherever 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 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 Observer has
previously accepted the work through oversight or otherwise. If any 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 a location
where it is not convenient for Owner or Owner's Representative to make observations of such work or require
testing of said work, then in such event Owner or Owner's Representative may require Contractor to furnish
Owner or Owner's Representative certificates of inspection, testing or approval made by persons competent to
perform such tasks at the location where that part of the work is being manufactured or fabricated. All such tests
will be in accordance with the methods prescribed by the American Society for Testing and Materials or such
other applicable organization as may be required by law or the contract documents.
If any work which is required to be inspected, tested, or approved is covered up without written approval or
consent of the Owner or Owner's Representative, it must, if requested by the Owner or Owner's Representative,
be uncovered for observation and testing at the Contractor's expense. The cost of all such inspections, tests and
approvals shall be borne by the Contractor unless otherwise provided herein. Any work which fails to meet the
requirements of any such tests, inspections or approval, and any work which meets the requirements of any such
tests or approval but does not meet the requirements of the contract documents shall be considered defective.
Such defective work shall be corrected at the Contractor's expense.
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 this Contract to make such inspections, tests,
or approvals shall relieve the Contractor from his obligation to perform the work in accordance with the
requirements of the contract documents.
22. DEFECTS AND THEIR REMEDIES
It is further agreed that if the work or any part thereof, or any material brought on the site of the work for use in
the work or selected for the same, shall be deemed by the Owner or Owners' Representative as unsuitable or not
in conformity with plans, specification and contract documents, the Contractor shall, after receipt of written notice
thereof from the Owner's Representative, forthwith remove such material and rebuild or otherwise remedy such
work so that it shall be in full accordance with this contract. It is further agreed that any remedial action
contemplated as hereinabove set forth shall be at Contractor's expense.
23. CHANGES AND ALTERATIONS
The Contractor further agrees that the Owner may make such changes and alterations as the Owner may see fit,
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 any actual
loss occasioned by such change, due to actual expenses incurred in preparation for the work as originally
planned.
24. EXTRA WORK
The term "extra work" as used in this contract shall be understood to mean and include all work that may be
required by the Owner or Owner's Representative to be done by the Contractor to accomplish any change,
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 actual field cost of the work, plus
fifteen (15%) percent.
In the event said extra work be performed and paid for under Method (C), then the provisions of this paragraph
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, 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 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 Owners 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 him for his 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 he should receive
compensation or an adjustment in the construction time, he shall 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).
The Contractor will thereby preserve the right to submit the matter of payment to arbitration as herein below
provided.
25. DISCREPANCIES AND OMISSIONS
It is further agreed that it is the intent of this contract 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. If the Contractor finds any discrepancies or omissions in
these plans, specifications, or contract documents, he should notify the Owners' Representative and obtain a
clarification before the bids are received, and if no such request is received by the Owner's Representative prior
to the opening of bids, then it shall be considered that the Contractor fully understands the work to be included
and has provided sufficient sums in his bid to complete the work in accordance with these plans and
specifications. It is further understood that any request for clarification must be submitted no later than five 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 his force or equipment, or both, to such an extent as to give
reasonable assurance of compliance with the schedule of progress.
27. PROTECTION AGAINST ACCIDENT TO EMPLOYEES AND THE PUBLIC
The Contractor shall take out and procure a policy or policies of Workers' Compensation Insurance with an
insurance company licensed to transact business in the State of Texas, which policy shall comply with the
Workers' Compensation laws of the State of Texas. The Contractor shall at all times exercise reasonable

provisions of federal, state and municipal laws and building and construction codes. All machinery and
equipment and other physical hazards shall be guarded in accordance with the "Manual of Accident Prevention in
Construction" of Associated General Contractors of America, except where incompatible with federal, state or
municipal laws or regulations. The Contractor, his sureties and insurance carriers shall defend, indemnify and
save harmless the Owner and all of its officers, agents and employees from all suits, actions, or claims of any

The safety precautions taken shall be the sole responsibility of the Contractor, in his sole discretion as an
Independent Contractor; inclusion of this paragraph in the Contract, as well as any notice which may be given by
the Owners or the Owner's Representative concerning omissions under this paragraph as the work progresses,

supervise safety precautions by either the Contractor or any of his subcontractors.

does not remedy the breach within ten days after receipt of notice of breach from the
governmental entity.

or may apply the sum so withheld to discharge any such indebtedness.
Any and all communications between any party under this paragraph must be in writing.
31. PROTECTION AGAINST ROYALTIES OR PATENT INVENTION
1 32
The contractor shall pay all royalties and license fees, and shall provide for the use of any design, device,
material or process covered by letters patent or copyright by suitable legal Contract with the Patentee or Owner

such suits and claims and shall be responsible for all such loss when a particular design, device, material or
process or the product of a particular manufacturer or manufacturers is specified or required in these contract
documents by Owner; provided, however, if choice of alternate design, device, material or process is allowed to
the Contractor, then Contractor shall indemnify and save Owner harmless from any loss on account thereof. If
the material or process specified or required by Owner is an infringement, the Contractor shall be responsible for
such loss unless he promptly gives written notice to the Owner of such infringement.
LAWS AND ORDINANCES
The Contractor shall at all times observe and comply with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and
regulations, which in any manner effect the contract or the work, and shall indemnify and save harmless the
Owner against any claims arising from the violation of any such laws, ordinances, and regulations, whether by
the Contractor or his employees. If the Contractor observes that the plans and specifications are at variance
therewith, he shall promptly notify the Owners' Representative in writing and any necessary changes shall be
adjusted as provided in the contract for changes in the work. If the Contractor performs any work knowing it to
be contrary to such laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, and without such notice to the Owner's
Representative, he shall bear all costs arising therefrom.
The Owner is a municipal corporation of the State of Texas and the law from which it derives its powers, insofar
as the same regulates the objects for which, or the manner in which, or the conditions under which the Owner
may enter into contracts, shall be controlling, and shall be considered as part of this contract to the same effect
as though embodied herein.
33. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
The Contractor further agrees that he will retain personal control and will give his 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 his full obligations to
the Owner, as provided by this Contract.
34. TIME FOR COMPLETION AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
ib
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 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 on a date to be specified in the Notice to Proceed.
If the Contractor should neglect, fail, or refuse to complete the work within the time herein specified, or any
proper extension thereof granted by the Owner, 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 $200.00 (TWO 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 calendar day that the Contractor
shall be in default after the time stipulated for completing the work.
It is expressly understood and agreed, by and between Contractor and the Owner, that the time for the
completion of the work described herein is reasonable time for the completion of the same, taking into
r
consideration the average climatic change and conditions and usual industrial conditions prevailing in this
locality. The amount is fixed and agreed upon by and between the Contractor and the Owner because of the
impracticability and extreme difficulty in fixing and ascertaining actual damages the Owner would in such event
sustain, and the amount is agreed to be damages the Owner would sustain and shall be retained by the Owner
from current periodical estimates for payments or from final payment.
It is further agreed and understood between the Contractor and Owner that time is of the essence of this contract.
35. 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 his 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 his 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.
36. EXTENSION OF TIME
The Contractor agrees that he has submitted his 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 33 hereinabove set forth and that he
shall not be entitled to, nor will he request, an extension of time on this contract, except when his 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. The Contractor may apply in writing for an extension of time, submitting therewith all written
justification as may be required by Owner's Representative for such an extension as requested by Contractor.
The Owner's Representative within ten (10) days after receipt of a written request for an extension of time by the
Contractor supported by all requested documentation shall then consider such written request and respond to
Contractor in writing granting or rejecting the request for an extension of time to complete the project.
37. HINDRANCE AND DELA
In executing the contract, the Contractor agrees that in undertaking to complete the work within the time herein
fixed, he has taken into consideration and made allowances for all hindrances and delays incident to such work,
whether growing out of delays in securing material or workmen or otherwise. 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 judgment of the Owner's Representative that is caused by
such stoppage shall be paid by Owner to Contractor.
38. 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 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. 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.
39. PROTECTION OF ADJOINING PROPERTY
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 Contract, from any damage or injury by reason of said process of construction; and he shall be liable for any
and all claims for such damage on account of his failure to fully protect all adjacent property. The Contractor
agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Owner against any claim or claims for damages due to any
injury to any adjacent or adjoining property, arising or growing out of the performance of this contract, but such
indemnity shall not apply to any claim of any kind arising out of the existence or character of the work.
40. PRICE FOR WORK
In consideration of the furnishing of all necessary labor, equipment and material and the completion of all work
by the Contractor, and on the delivery of all materials embraced in this contract in full conformity with the
specifications and stipulations herein contained, the Owner agrees to pay the Contractor the price set forth in the
bid attached hereto, which has been made a part of this contract, and the Contractor hereby agrees to receive
such price in full for furnishing all materials and all labor required for the aforesaid work, also, for all expenses
incurred by him and for well and truly performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner and according to
this Contract, 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 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. Owner's Representative shall review said application for partial payment 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; said statement shall also include the value of all sound materials delivered on site of
the work that are to be fabricated into the work.
1 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 this Contract. It is understood, however, that in case the whole work be near to
completion, and this fact is certified to by Owner's Representative and some unexpected and some unusual
delay occurs due to no fault or negligence on the part of the Contractor, the Owner may upon written
recommendation of Owner's Representative pay a reasonable and equitable portion of the retained percentage
due Contractor.
171
43. FINAL COMPLETION AND ACCEPTANCE
Within thirty-one (31) days after the Contractor has given the Owner's Representative written notice that the work
has been completed or substantially completed, the Owner's Representative and the Owner shall inspect the
work and within said time, if the work be found to be completed or substantially completed in accordance with the
contract documents, the Owner's Representative shall issue to the Owner and Contractor his certificate of
completion, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Owner within thirty-one (31) days to issue a certificate of
acceptance of the work to the Contractor.
44. FINAL PAYMENT
Upon the issuance of the certificate of completion, the Owner's Representative shall proceed to make final
measurement and prepare a final statement of the value of all work performed and materials furnished under the
terms of the Contract, and shall certify same to the Owner, who shall pay to the Contractor on or before the 31st
day after the date of certificate of completion, the balance due Contractor under the terms of this Contract,
provided he has fully performed his contractual obligations under the terms of this contract; and said payment
shall become due in any event upon said performance by the Contractor. Neither the certificate of acceptance
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 special conditions (if any) of this contract or required
in the specifications made a part of this contract.
45, CORRECTION OF WORK BEFORE FINAL PAYMENT FOR WORK
Contractor shall promptly remove from Owners' premises all materials condemned by the Owner's
Representative on account of failure to conform to the contract, whether actually incorporated in the work or not,
and Contractor shall at his own expense promptly replace such condemned materials with other materials
conforming to the requirements of the contract. 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
such condemned work within a reasonable time after a written notice by the Owner or the Owner's
Representative, Owner may remove and replace it at Contractor's expense.
46. CORRECTION OF WORK AFTER FINAL PAYMENT
Neither the final payment nor certificate nor any provision in this contract shall relieve the Contractor of
responsibility for faulty materials or workmanship, and he 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
substantial completion. The Owner or the Owner's Representative shall give notice of observed defects with
reasonable promptness.
47. PAYMENT WITHHELD
The Owner may, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or part of any
certificate to such extent as may be necessary to protect himself from loss on account of:
(a) Defective work not remedied.
(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.
When the above grounds are removed, or the Contractor provides a surety bond satisfactory to the Owner, which
will protect the Owner in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them.
48. TIME OF FILING CLAIMS
It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the Contractor
shall be in writing and filed with the Owner's Representative within fifteen (15) days after the Owner's
Representative has given any directions, order or instruction to which the Contractor desires to take exception.
The Owners' Representative shall reply to such written exceptions by the Contractor and render his final decision
in writing. In case the Contractor should appeal from the decision of the Owner's Representative, any demand
for arbitration shall be filed with the Owner's Representative and the Owner in writing within ten (10) days after
the date of delivery to Contractor of the final decision of the Owner's Representative. It is further agreed that
final acceptance of the work by the Owner and the acceptance by the Contractor of the final payment shall be a
bar to any claim by either party, except where noted otherwise in the contract documents.
49. 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 Contract, or the
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, 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:
(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 Contract. 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
(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 (15) 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.
50, 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

Provide protection from adverse weather conditions for that part of the project that may be exposed during
cutting and patching operations. Avoid interference with use of adjoining areas or interruption of free passage
to adjoining areas. Take precautions not to cut existing pipe, conduit or duct serving the building (but
scheduled to be relocated) until provisions have been made to bypass them.
1.08 PERFORMANCE
A. General: In performing the work prescribed herein, it will be the Contractor's responsibility to repair all
existing construction disturbed, relocated, damaged or altered an all new construction installed, as required to
hide all evidence of work and to refinish this construction to match existing fmish and appearance.
B. Damage: Contractor shall be responsible for the repairs of any accidental damage the Contractor inflicts upon

C. Workmanship: Contractor and Subcontractors shall cooperate fully in performance of work. Cutting of new
work shall be avoided. However, if cutting, patching, repairing, removing and/or replacing is necessary, it
shall be performed in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents. In all cases, exercise
care in cutting operations. Perform operations under supervision of competent mechanics skilled in applicable
trade.
D. Cutting: Cut the work using methods that are least likely to damage work to be retained or adjoining work.
1. In general, where cutting is required use hand or small power tools designed for sawing or grinding, not
hammering and chopping. Cut through concrete and masonry using a cutting machine such as a
carborundum saw or core drill to ensure a neat hole. Cut holes and slots neatly to sizes required with
existing finished surfaces, cut or drill from the exposed or finished side into concealed surfaces.
Temporarily cover openings when not in use.
2. Bypass utility services such as pipe and conduit before cutting where such utility services are shown or
required to be removed, relocated or abandoned. After bypassing and cutting, cap, valve or plug and seal
tight remaining portion of pipe and conduit to prevent entrance of moisture or other foreign matter.
E. Patching: Patch with seams which are durable and as invisible as possible. Comply with specified tolerances
for the work. Where no tolerances are specified, patchwork shall match existing work and existing tolerances.
Where feasible, inspect and test patched areas to demonstrate integrity of work. Restore exposed finishes of
patched areas and, where necessary, extend finish restoration into retained adjoining work in a manner which
will eliminate evidence of patching and refinishing.
