revise the Exit Device Trim designation to be N910. This is to be a Newport lever set with the
passage function.
ITEM #2: Electrical Underground Feeders – In response to the following question, the
Engineer has provided the below response.
Question: I’m trying to figure the labor necessary for installing the underground feeders
for this project. Can we confirm whether or not there is concrete or asphalt to be removed
in the lot space between the switchgear housing and the north side of the existing
building?
Answer: The dashed line around switchgear shown on sheet E3 is a concrete pad. To the South
and West of the pad there is a concrete sidewalk. There are also pipe support stands for a conduit
that goes from MDP/A to the West that may need to have a temporary support installed during the
underground work.
ITEM #3: Ceiling Tiles – For clarification, the Armstrong Cirrus acoustical tiles that are
scheduled in Section 099999 “Finish and Materials Schedule” are to be square edge tiles, not
tegular.

right pertaining to termination or default.

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 C ity of Lubbock agrees

32 BASIS OF PROPOSALS AND SELECTION CRITERIA
The City uses the Competitive Sealed Proposals procurement method as authorized by the Texas
Legislature and further defined by Texas Government Code Section 2269. The Maximum Point value is
equal to 100 points. The weight factor is 60 points for Price, 30 points for Contractor Qualifications, 5
points for Safety Record Questionnaire, and 5 points for Construction Time. The selection criteria used
to evaluate each proposal includes the following:
32.1 60 POINTS - PRICE: The quality of Offerors is not judged solely by a low initial cost proposal
or, conversely, eliminated solely because of a high initial cost proposal. The following is the
formula used when determining price as a factor for construction contract proposals. The lowest
proposal price of all the proposals becomes the standard by which all price proposals are evaluated.
One at a time, each proposal is evaluated by taking the lowest proposal price and dividing it by the
price of the proposal being evaluated. That fraction is then multiplied by the maximum point value
of the price factor for the price score. For Example: (Lowest Price/Current Proposal Price) x
Maximum Point Value = Price Score.
11
32.2 30 POINTS - CONTRACTOR QUALIFICATIONS: When evaluating a contractor’s
qualifications, the City uses the “Contractor’s Statement of Qualifications” attached within and
past experience with the contractor. The City may also interview the job superintendent at a time
to be named after receipt of proposals. This criterion is subjectively evaluated and the formula is
as follows: (Points = Score). Each evaluator assigns points based upon the responses the contractor
provides in the “Contractor’s Statement of Qualifications” And any past experience with the
contractor. The “Contractor’s Statement of Qualifications” is a minimum, and you may provide
additional pertinent information relevant to the project for which you are submitting this proposal.
32.3 5 POINTS - SAFETY RECORD QUESTIONNAIRE: This criterion is also more subjectively
evaluated and the formula is as follows: (Points = Score). Each evaluator assigns points based
upon the responses you provide in your “Safety Record Questionnaire” and the Contractors
Experience Modification Ratio (EMR). Contractors with an EMR greater than 1.0, as well as those
Contractors not submitting EMRs, will receive zero points for this portion of the selection criteria.
The City may consider any incidence involving worker safety or safety of Lubbock residents, be
it related or caused by environmental, mechanical, operational, supervision or any other cause or
factor under the contractor’s control. Evaluators base their rating primarily upon how well you
document previous offenses with the date of the offense, location where the offense occurred, type
of offense, final disposition of the offense, and any penalty assessed as well as the EMR.
32.4 5 POINTS - CONSTRUCTION TIME: This criterion is, as with price, objective and evaluators
use the following formula when determining construction time as a factor for construction contract
proposals. The lowest construction time proposal of all the proposals becomes the standard by
which all the construction time proposals are evaluated. One at a time, each proposal is evaluated
by taking the lowest construction time and dividing it by the construction time of the proposal
being evaluated. That fraction is then multiplied by the maximum point value of the construction
time factor for the construction time score. For example: (Lowest construction time/Current
Proposal construction time) x Maximum Point Value = Construction Time Score)
32.5 EVALUATION PROCESS: Evaluators independently review and score each proposal. The
Committee meets, during which time the Committee Chairperson totals the individual scores. If
the individual scores are similar, the Chairperson averages the scores then ranks offerors
accordingly. If the scores are significantly diverse, the Chairperson initiates and moderates
discussion to determine the reasons for the differences and ensures that all evaluators are fully
knowledgeable of all aspects of the proposals. Scores may then be adjusted by the committee based
on committee discussion. Please note that offerors with higher qualifications scores could be
ranked higher than offerors with slightly better price scores.
32.6 The estimated budget for the construction phase of this project is $1,006,500.00
32.7 Proposals shall be made using the enclosed Proposal Submittal Form.
12
33 SELECTION
33.1 Selection shall be based on the responsible offeror whose proposal is determined to be the most
advantageous to the City of Lubbock considering the relative importance of evaluation factors
included in this RFP.
33.2 NO INDIVIDUAL OF ANY USING DEPARTMENT (CITY OF LUBBOCK WATER
UTILITIES OR OTHER) HAS THE AUTHORITY TO LEGALLY AND/OR FINANCIALLY
COMMIT THE CITY TO ANY CONTRACT, AGREEMENT OR PURCHASE ORDER FOR
GOODS OR SERVICES, UNLESS SPECIFICALLY SANCTIONED BY THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THIS REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL.
33.3 The City shall select the offeror that offers the best value for the City based on the published
selection criteria and on its ranking evaluation. The City shall first attempt to negotiate a contract
with the selected offeror. The City and its engineer or architect may discuss with the selected
offeror options for a scope or time modification and any price change associated with the
modification. If the City is unable to negotiate a contract with the selected offeror, the City shall,
formally and in writing, end negotiations with that offeror and proceed to the next offeror in the
order of the selection ranking until a contract is reached or all proposals are rejected.
33.4 In determining best value for the City, the City is not restricted to considering price alone, but may
consider any other factor stated in the selection criteria.
33.5 A proposal will be subject to being considered irregular and may be rejected if it shows
omissions, alterations of form, conditional alternate proposals, additions or alternates in lieu of
the items specified, if the unit prices are obviously unbalanced (either in excess of or below
reasonably expected values), or irregularities of any kind.

the procedures provided by this subchapter.
Sec. 2269.152. USE OF ARCHITECT OR ENGINEER. The governmental entity shall select or
designate an architect or engineer to prepare construction documents for the project. The selected or designated
engineer or architect has full responsibility for complying with Chapter 1001 or 1051, Occupations Code, as
applicable. If the engineer or architect is not a full-time employee of the governmental entity, the governmental
entity shall select the engineer or architect on the basis of demonstrated competence and qualifications as
provided by Section 2254.004, Government Code.
Sec. 2269.153. PREPARATION OF REQUEST. The governmental entity shall prepare a request for
competitive sealed proposals that includes construction documents, selection criteria and the weighted value for

the selection criteria that will be used in selecting the successful offeror.
Sec. 2269.154. EVALUATION OF OFFERORS. (a) The governmental entity shall receive, publicly

rank each proposal submitted in relation to the published selection criteria.
Sec. 2269.155. SELECTION OF OFFEROR. (a) The governmental entity shall select the offeror that
submits the proposal that offers the best value for the governmental entity based on:
(1) the selection criteria in the request for proposal and the weighted value for those criteria in
the request for proposal; and (2) its ranking evaluation. (b) The governmental entity shall first attempt to
negotiate a contract with the selected offeror. The governmental entity and its architect or engineer may discuss
with the selected offeror options for a scope or time modification and any price change associated with the
modification. (c) If the governmental entity is unable to negotiate a satisfactory contract with the selected
offeror, the governmental entity shall, formally and in writing, end negotiations with that offeror and proceed to
the next offeror in the order of the selection ranking until a contract is reached or all proposals are rejected. In

and the general and local conditions, and all other matters which in any way affect the work under the contract
documents. No oral agreement or conversation with any officer, agent, or employee of the Owner, or Owner’s
Representative either before or after the execution of this contract, shall affect or modify any of the terms or
obligations herein contained. Subject to the rights of Owner as set forth in Paragraph 23 hereof, all modifications
4
and/or amendments to the contract documents, shall be in writing, and executed by Own er’s Representative and
Contractor.

to be done, or from the action of the elements, or from any unforeseen circumstance and the prosecution of the
work, shall be sustained and borne by the Contractor at its own cost and expense.
18. CHARACTER OF WORKERS
The Contractor agrees to employ only orderly and competent workers, 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
Contractor in writing that any person or persons on the work, are, in Owner’s Representative’s sole opinion,
incompetent, unfaithful, disorderly, or otherwise unacceptable to Owner or Owner’s Representative, such person or
persons shall be discharged from the work and shall not again be employed on the work without the Owner's
Representative's written consent.
19. 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 workers or equipment will be permitted only at such places as the
Owner's Representative shall consent or direct, and the sanitary conditions of the grounds in or about such structure

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.
21. OBSERVATION AND TESTING
The Contractor is responsible for construction quality control testing, cost, and reporting of the type and extent
required by the contract documents. The Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right at all 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 such work is in preparation or progress. Contractor sh all
ascertain the scope of any observation that 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. 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 manufac tured 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.

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 approvals, and any work which meets the requirements of any such
tests or approvals but does not meet the requirements of the contract documents shall be considered defective, and
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 the contract documents to make such inspections, tests,
or approvals shall relieve the Contractor from its obligation to perform the work in accordance 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
the work or selected for the same, shall be deemed by the Owner or Owner's Representative as unsuitable or not in
conformity with plans, specifications and/or 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 the contract documents. 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 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
proposal, except as provided under Changes and Alterations in Paragraph 23.
It is agreed that the Contractor shall perform all extra work under the observation 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
6
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 to the firm actually performing the work, and
additional higher-tier markups limited to 5% to cover additional overhead and insurance
costs; 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, as
estimated by the Engineer and approved by the Owner..
In the event said extra work be performed and paid for under Method (C)(1), then the provisions of this paragraph
shall apply and the "actual field cost" is hereby defined to include the cost of all workers, 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 transpo rtation 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 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 before the commencement
of 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 proposal, 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 proposals are received, and if no such notice is received by the Owner's Representative
prior to the opening of proposals, then it shall be deemed that the Contractor fully understands the work to
be included and has provided sufficient sums in its proposal to complete the work in accordance with these
plans and specifications. If Contractor does not notify Owner’s Representative before offering 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 proposals. In the absence of a
7
requested clarification for a conflict in the documents prior to proposals being reviewed, it will be assumed
that the Contractor proposes the higher cost alternative on conflicts identified after proposals are reviewed.
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.
27. PROTECTION AGAINST ACCIDENT TO EMPLOYEES AND THE PUBLIC AND GENERAL INDEMNITY

including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and expenses, in connection with, incident to, related to, or arising out
of, the Contractor’s or any subcontractor’s, agent’s or employee’s, in any manner whatsoever, omission, execution
and/or supervision of this contract, and the project which is the subject matter of this contract.
The safety precautions taken shall be the sole responsibility of the Contractor, in its sole discretion as an Independent
Contractor; inclusion of this paragraph in the Agreement, 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, are intended as
reminders to the Contractor of its duty and shall not be construed as any assumption of duty to supervise safety
precautions by either the Contractor or any of its subcontractors.

General Conditions of the contract documents, from an underwriter authorized to do business in the State of Texas

any loss under such insurance or self-insurance. All certificates of insurance submitted to the City in conformity
with the provisions hereof shall establish such waiver.
The Contractor shall procure and carry at its 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

Contractor observes that the plans and specifications are at variance therewith, he shall notify the Owner's
Representative in writing prior to proposing 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 said time, any objection and/or assertion that the plans and specifications are at variance with
any federal, state or 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 Representative, Contractor shall bear all costs arising there from.
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. 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 Notice to Proceed and contract documents, respectively, 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 Finally 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 $1,000.00 PER CONSECUTIVE
CALENDAR 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 fail to meet the time requirements stipulated for
substantially completing the work.
It is expressly understood and agreed, by and between Contractor and the Owner, that the time for the substantial
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 amount is
fixed and agreed upon by and between the Contractor and the Owner because the actual damages 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.
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 its work in such order of precedence, and in such manner as shall be most conductive to
economy of construction. The Contractor shall ensure daily prosecution of the work is conducted every business
day until completed, regardless if the work will be substantially or finally complete ahead of specified deadlines in
the agreement, unless the City determines time off from said prosecution is necessary or reasonable and Contractor
received said determination in writing from the City. Further, when the Owner is having other work done, either by
15
contract or by its own force, the Owner's Representative (as distinguished from the Resident Project 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. Additionally, inclement
weather shall be the only other reason consistent, daily prosecution of the work may not take place on those
inclement weather days.
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. TIME OF PERFORMANCE
The Contractor agrees that it has submitted its proposal 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 within 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.
37. 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 workers, 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 contrac t 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.
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, 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
proposals 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, provided that the over
run or under run of estimated quantities32 note exceed 15% of the estimated quantity.
16
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
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 Engineer, 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, rel ated to, arising from or
growing out of the performance of this contract.
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
proposal 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 Contractor and for well and truly performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner a nd
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. 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.
Payment for materials on hand and delivered to the project site will be limited to 100 percent less the 5 percent
standard retainage until actually incorporated into the project.
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,
17
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 31st 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
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
warranties implied by law or otherwise.
45. CORRECTION OF WORK
Contractor shall promptly remove from Owner's premises all materials condemned by the Owner's Representative
on account of failure to conform to the contract documents, whether actually incorporated in the work or not, and
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 such
condemned work within a reasonable time but not to exceed 30 days after a written notice by the Owner or the
Owner's Representative, Owner may remove and replace it at Contractor's expense. The Contractor shall pay all
claims, cost, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of the engineers, architects,
attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution cost) arising out of or
relating to such correction or removal.
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) Damage to another contractor,
(d) Notification to owner of failure to make payments to Subcontractors or Suppliers,
18
(e) Failure to submit up-to-date record documents as required,
(f) Failure to submit monthly progress schedule updates or revised scheduled as requested by Owner,
(g) Failure to provide Project photographs required by Specifications.
When the above grounds are removed, or the Contractor provides a surety bond satisfactory to the Owner, in the
amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them.
47. CLAIM OR DISPUTE
It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the Cont ractor
shall be in writing and filed 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 th e 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 persons 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
19
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 proposals, 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 credite d
therewith.
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 i s 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 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, if applicable, 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, if applicable, subject only to the duty of the Owner
to exercise ordinary care to protect such property. After fifteen (15) calendar 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, if applicable. 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 that remain on the jobsite and belong to persons other than the Contractor or his Surety, if
applicable, to their proper owners.
The remedies provided to Owner by law, equity, contract, or otherwise, shall be cumulative, to the extent permitted
by law. It is expressly agreed and understood that the exercise by Owner of the remedies provided in this paragraph
shall not constitute an election of remedies on the part of Owner, and Owner, irrespective of its exercise of remedies
hereunder, shall be entitled to exercise concurrently or otherwise, any and all other remedies available to it, by law,
equity, contract or otherwise, including but not limited to, liquidated damages, as provided in paragraph 34,
hereinabove set forth.
49. LIMITATION ON CONTRACTOR’S REMEDY
The remedies of Contractor hereunder shall be limited to, and Owner shall be liable only for, work actually
performed by Contractor and/or its subcontractors as set forth in the contract documents, and Owner shall not be
liable for any consequential, punitive or indirect loss or damage that Contractor may suffer in connection with the
project which is the subject matter of this contract.
50. BONDS
20
The Contractor is required to furnish a performance bond in accordance with Chapter 2253, Government Code, in
the amount of 100% of the total contract price in the event that said contract price exceeds $100,000 and the
Contractor is required to furnish a payment bond in accordance with Chapter 2253, Government Code, in the amount
of 100% of the total contract price in the event that said contract price exceeds $50,000. All bonds shall be submitted
on forms supplied by the Owner, and executed by a Surety Company listed on the State Treasury’s “Approved” list
and authorized to do business in the State of Texas. It is further agreed that this contract shall not be in effect until

conflict with any of the general conditions contained in this contract, then in such event the special conditions shall
control.

work to be done, or from the action of the elements, or from any unforeseen circumstanc e or from unusual
obstructions or difficulties, naturally occurring, man made or otherwise, which may be encountered in the
prosecution of the work, shall be sustained and borne by the Contractor at his own cost and expense.
53. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
Contractor is, and shall remain, an independent contractor with full, complete and exclusive power and authority to
direct, supervise, and control its own employees and to determine the method of the performance of the work
covered hereby. The fact that the Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right to observe Contractor's
work during Contractor’s performance and to carry out the other prerogatives which are expressly reserved to and
vested in the Owner or Owner's Representative hereunder, is not intended to and shall not at any time change or
effect the status of the Contractor as an independent contractor with respect to either the Owner or Owner's
Representative or to the Contractor's own employees or to any other person, firm, or corporation.
54. CLEANING UP
The Contractor shall at all times keep the premises free from accumulation of debris caused by the work, and at the
completion of the work Contractor shall remove all such debris and also its tools, scaffolding, and surplus materials
and shall leave the work room clean or its equivalent. The work shall be left in good order and condition. In case
of dispute Owner may remove the debris and charge the cost to the Contractor.

of the Project, or that it is necessary to place and/or otherwise locate upon the site of the Project or other property
of the City, a Hazardous Substance, hydrocarbons or other petroleum products or byproducts and/or asbestos,
Contractor shall notify the Owner’s Representative, and request consent therefrom, at least twenty (20) days prior
to such action. Owner’s Representative may grant or deny the request of Contractor and provide whatever
requirements such consent, if granted, is conditioned upon, in its sole and absolute discretion. If the request of
21
Contractor is not granted, or otherwise not responded to, by Owner’s Representative within five (5) days of the
receipt of said request, said request shall be deemed to be denied.
In the event Owner’s Representative shall consent to the request of Contractor, Contractor shall be responsible for
ensuring that all personnel involved in the Project are (i) trained for the level of expertise required for proper

days prior written notice, but failure to give such notice shall be of no effect and the City shall not be obligated
under this contract beyond the date of termination.

audit Contractor's records and books relevant to all services provided under this Contract. In the event such an audit
by the City reveals any errors/overpayments by the City, Contractor shall refund the City the full amount of such
overpayments within thirty (30) days of such audit findings, or the City, at its option, reserves the right to deduct
such amounts owing the City from any payments due Contractor.
58. NON-ARBITRATION

mud and other debris from within forms and from reinforcement. N otify Engineer prior to placing in
ample time for inspection of forms and reinforcing.
3.02 PLACEMENT OF CONCRETE
A. Pre-Placement Inspection:
1. Before placing concrete, inspect and complete formwork installation, reinforcing steel and items to be
embedded or cast-in-place. Notify other Contractors to permit installation of their work; cooperate
with other trades in setting such work as required. Thoroughly wet wood forms immediately before
placing concrete as required where form coatings are not used. Notify insp ection agency and
Engineer 24 hours in advance of pouring.
2. Remove snow, ice, debris and excessive water from forms
3. Pre-wet soil and sand subgrades and surfaces of precast concrete to receive fresh concrete.
4. Position and secure expansion joint materials, an chors, waterstops, screeds, control joint forms, and

construction joints.
2. Deposit concrete continuously or in layers of such thickness that no concrete will be placed on
concrete which has hardened sufficiently to cause formation of seam s or planes of weakness within
the section. If a section cannot be placed continuously, provide construction joints as specified.
Deposit concrete as nearly as practicable to its final location to avoid segregation due to rehandling or
flowing.
3. Consolidate placed concrete by mechanical vibrating equipment supplemented by hand -spading,
rodding or tamping. Use vibrators designed to operate with vibratory element submerged in concrete,
maintaining a speed of not less than 6000 impulses per minute. Alternat e methods of consolidating
concrete including the use of self-consolidating concrete may be submitted to the Engineer for
approval.
4. Do not use vibrators to move concrete inside of forms. Insert and withdraw vibrators vertically at
uniformly spaced locations not farther than visible effectiveness of machine. Do not insert vibrators
into lower layers of concrete that have begun to set. At each insertion, limit duration of vibration to
CITY OF LUBBOCK LP&L GIS OFFICE ADDITION 033000 - 12
CDG 22004 CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE
time necessary to consolidate concrete and complete embedment of reinfor cement and other
embedded items without causing segregation of mix.
C. Placing Concrete Slabs:
1. Deposit and consolidate concrete slabs in a continuous operation until placing of a panel or section is
completed.
2. Place interior slabs on grade using long-strip construction techniques or other approved method.
3. Place suspended slabs in sections as large as practicable to complete finishing, within limits
acceptable to Engineer.
4. Consult with Engineer with regard to limits of single placements prior to commencing wor k.
5. Consolidate concrete during placing operations so concrete is thoroughly worked around
reinforcement and other embedded items and into corners.
6. Bring slab surfaces to correct level with a straightedge and strikeoff. Use bull floats or darbies to
smooth surface, leaving it free of humps or hollows. Do not sprinkle water on plastic concrete
surface. Do not disturb slab surfaces prior to beginning finishing operations. “Wet Screed” placement
of slabs is not allowed.
7. Maintain reinforcing in the proper position during concrete placement operations. mesh shall be lifted
to 1/2 slab depth as pouring proceeds.
D. Cold Weather Placing:
1. Protect concrete work from physical damage or reduced strength which could be caused by frost,
freezing actions or low temperatures in compliance with ACI 306.
2. Do not use frozen materials or materials containing ice or snow. Do not place concrete on frozen
subgrade or on subgrade containing frozen materials.
3. Do not use calcium chloride, salt or other materials containing anti-freeze agents or chemical
accelerators other than approved, non-chloride accelerating admixtures.
4. Do not allow carbon dioxide from heating units to contact freshly placed concrete surfaces for 48
hours. Vent heaters outside of enclosure.
E. Hot Weather Placing:
1. Temperature of concrete delivered at job site shall not exceed 95 degrees F. Add ice to mixing water
as required to control temperature of mixture.
2. Conform to ACI 305.
3. Use evaporation retarders, and finishing aids when necessary to achieve sound, durable syrfaces.
4. Wet forms thoroughly before placing concrete.
5. Do not use retarding admixtures without the written permission of the Engineer.

PART 3 – EXECUTION
3.1 EXCAVATION
A.Perform all excavation work required in connection with the installation of the work under this Section.
After the electrical work has been installed, tested and approved, backfill all excavations with suitable
material under the direction of the Architect. Include the cutting of all sidewalks, streets, and other
pavement and repairing the openings in them to return the surface to approximately its original condition.
B.Perform all excavations of every description of whatever substances encountered and to the depths
required for installation of the work under this Division.
C.During excavation, stack material suitable for backfilling in an orderly manner a sufficient distance from
the banks to prevent slides or cave-ins. Remove all excavated material not required or suitable for
backfill. Control grading to prevent surface water from flowing into excavations, and remove any water
accumulating therein by pumping.
D.Make trenches the necessary width for proper installation of the lines.
E.Grade the bottom of trenches accurately to provide uniform bearing and support for conduit or duct on
undisturbed soil at every point along its entire length.
F.Where excavation requires the opening of existing walks, streets, drives or other existing pavement, cut
the pavement as required. Hold the size of the cut to a minimum consistent with the work to be
accomplished. After the installation of the new work is completed, and the excavation has been
backfilled, patch the paving using materials to match those cut out. Take care that the patches are level
with the original surfaces and thoroughly bond with them.
3.2 BACKFILLING
A.Carefully backfill trenches with earth, sandy clay, soft shale or other approved material free from large
clods of earth deposited in thoroughly and carefully rammed 6-inck layers.
B.Do not use broken concrete or pavement as backfill material.
C.Settling the backfill with water is permissible and will be a requirement when so directed.
D.Re-open any trenches improperly filled or where settlement occurs to the depth required for proper
compaction, then refill, mound over and smooth off.
E.Install continuous identification tape as specified in ELECTRICAL IDENTIFICATION.
F.Backfill open trenches across roadways or other areas to be paved as specified above except that the
entire depth of trench shall be backfilled in 6-inch layers, each layer moistened and compacted to a
density of not less that 95% Standard Proctor in such manner as to permit the rolling and compaction of
the filled trench together with the adjoining earth to provide the required bearing value and permit paving
the area immediately after backfilling as completed.
CITY OF LUBBOCK LP&L GIS OFFICE ADDITION 260532 - 4
CDG 22004 FFA 19038 RACEWAYS
3.3 INSTALLATION OF UNDERGROUND DUCTS
A.Concrete between ducts and earth, and with 3 inches of concrete between adjacent ducts. Provide at least
30 inches of cover from top of concrete encasement to finished grade. Install with uniform slope for
drainage, with no low pockets to collect water.
B.Build up duct banks completely in the trench before any concrete is poured, using factory-fabricated
plastic conduit spacers in staggered configuration to provide the proper horizontal and vertical spacings,
and securing the entire assembly with heavy twine or cord to insure rigidity during pouring. Do not use
metal for this purpose. Assemble conduits with staggered adjacent couplings so that no two couplings
will lie in the same transverse plane, in a vertical direction. Use solvent cement as directed by the duct
manufacturer in making up all joints.
C.Fabricate duct runs with standard factory-made fittings, elbows and accessories. Make all changes of
direction, horizontal or vertical, with long sweep bends having a minimum radius of 25 feet, except that
manufactured bends at or near the ends of the runs may be used on short runs of 100 feet or less. Make
long sweep bends with one or more curved or straight sections of duct. Manufactured bends, where
permitted, shall have a minimum radius of 10 times the nominal duct diameter. Where manufactured
ducts of greater than a 30-degree angle are required, use rigid hot dipped galvanized steel conduit bends.
During construction, protect partially completed duct lines from entrance of dirt and debris by means of
suitable factory-made duct plugs. After completion of installation, seal all ends of spare ducts with
factory made duct plugs.
D.Where ducts enter in or under buildings, change from plastic duct to rigid galvanized steel conduit below
grade outside the structure, using suitable factory adapters. At the point of change of materials, extend
the concrete envelope to enclose at least 2 feet of steel conduit. Wrap all steel conduits and fittings
buried in earth as specified elsewhere herein, or use PVC coated steel conduits.
E.Install the concrete envelope for a given duct run in one pour where possible. Use concrete of 3000 psi
compressive strength. In pouring concrete, do not allow heavy masses of concrete to fall on ducts.
Direct flow of concrete down sides of assembly to bottom, forcing it to flow to center of bank and then to
rise up in middle, filling all spaces uniformly. Spade concrete liberally and carefully with a long, flat
slicing bar between vertical rows to eliminate voids. Weight or brace the duct bank assembly if
necessary, to prevent the assembly from floating. Because of the fact that plastic conduits may expand
considerably during construction, each run and its concrete envelope shall be installed starting at one end
and proceeding toward the other with any necessary adjustments to length being made at the end toward
which the work is progressing.
F.After ducts are installed, complete with envelope, and before pulling any cable, pull a mandrel through
every duct to check for alignment and clear passage. Use an iron-shod mandrel with a diameter of 1/4
inch less than the nominal size of the duct and a length equal to the duct diameter. Mandrel shall have a
leather or rubber gasket slightly larger than the duct hole. After testing the ducts with the mandrel, pull a
stiff-bristled brush through each duct until it is clear of all particles of earth, sand or gravel; then install
duct plugs immediately.
3.4 INSTALLATION OF UNDERGROUND PLASTIC CONDUIT
A.Install at least 30 inches below finished grade unless noted to the contrary. Assemble and install
raceways in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Make joints with couplings and solvent cement.
Fabricate bends of 30 degrees or more with factory-made elbows, or make field bends with proper
heating equipment. Bends showing signs of overheating or flattening are unacceptable. Ream ends of all
conduit before joining.
B."Snake" plastic conduit in trench, from side to side, with a complete cycle every 40 feet to allow for
expansion and contraction. Maintain this configuration during backfilling.
CITY OF LUBBOCK LP&L GIS OFFICE ADDITION 260532 - 5
CDG 22004 FFA 19038 RACEWAYS
C.Where conduit turns up out of earth, or floor slabs, change from plastic to rigid galvanized steel conduit
below grade and outside of such structures. Do not extend any plastic conduit above grade. Make
similar change from plastic to rigid galvanized steel conduit at connections to underground pull or
junction boxes. Wrap all steel conduits and fittings buried in earth as specified elsewhere herein, or use
PVC coated steel conduits.
3.5 INSTALLATION OF UNDERGROUND STEEL CONDUIT
A.All steel conduit in earth shall be rigid galvanized steel conduit. Wrap such conduit with 3M Company
0.020-inch thick No. 51 "scotchrap" vinyl plastic tape, half lapped to give a double thickness wrap.
Remove all oil, grease and dirt from conduit with a suitable solvent, and clean and dry conduit before
wrapping. If conduit is pre-wrapped in the shop and then cut and joined on the job, wrap all joints on the
job, overlapping pipe wrapping 3" on both sides of joints.
3.6 INSTALLATION OF PVC COATED CONDUITS
A.During installation, visually examine the conduit for cuts. Patch these areas with a paste containing a
PVC solvent obtained from the conduit manufacturer. The patch shall be built up to the original thickness
of the coating and feathered out on all sides of the damaged area a minimum of l/2 inch to provide a
complete bonded seal over the damaged area.
3.7 INSTALLATION OF BUILDING RACEWAYS
A.All wiring of every description shall be run in conduit or electrical metallic tubing unless noted or
specified otherwise. Conduits may be run exposed in machinery and electrical rooms and unfinished
areas. All other conduits shall be run concealed unless otherwise noted. All exposed runs shall be
installed parallel to the surface of the building in a neat and orderly manner.
B.Types: All conduits installed in wet or damp locations, or on roofs shall be rigid galvanized steel
conduits. Above grade interior conduits shall be rigid galvanized steel conduit, intermediate metal
conduits or electrical metallic tubing. Conduits installed below grade in slabs or buried in earth shall be
PVC or PVC coated rigid galvanized steel or wrapped rigid galvanized steel.
C.Sizes: Size and install raceways so that conductors may be drawn in without injury or excessive strain.
Make field bends with approved bending devices. Do not install bends or offsets in which conduit is
crushed, deformed or otherwise injured.
D.Connections: Use lengths of flexible metal conduit, not less than 12" long at final connections to all
motors, generators, controls and other devices subject to movement because of vibration or mechanical
adjustment. Use flexible metal conduit also at connections to recessed lighting fixtures, and elsewhere as
required. In damp or wet locations, and where installed outdoors, use liquidtight flexible metal conduit.
E.Around Heat Producing Equipment: Do not install raceways within 3" of steam and hot water pipes,
breeching and flues, except where crossings are unavoidable, and then keep raceways at least 1" from
insulation on the pipe, breeching or flue crossed. Wherever possible, avoid installing raceways directly
above or in close proximity to boilers and other like objects operating at high temperatures.
F.Damp or Wet Locations: In damp or wet locations make every effort to avoid installing raceways in a
manner which will create moisture traps. Where they must be so installed, seal both ends of raceways
with an approved sealing compound to prevent "breathing" and moisture condensation within the
raceways.
G.Different Systems: In systems operating at more than 300 volts between phase conductors, where
different phase conductors are to be run to a common gang wall switch box, install a separate conduit for
CITY OF LUBBOCK LP&L GIS OFFICE ADDITION 260532 - 6
CDG 22004 FFA 19038 RACEWAYS
each different phase wire and its return switch leg, and provide substantial barriers between adjacent
switches in the box so that two different phase wires will not be the same compartment.
H.Joining Rigid Conduits: Join with threaded couplings. Ream out all conduit ends after threading. Secure
rigid conduits at panel boxes, junction boxes, pull boxes, switchboards, support boxes, or sheet metal
outlet boxes by galvanized locknuts, inside and outside, with insulating bushing inside. Unthreaded set
screw type couplings or connectors are not acceptable in rigid conduit systems. No running threads shall
be used anywhere in conduit systems.
I.Protection of Raceways: Seal ends of all raceways with blank discs ("pennies"), push pennies or other
approved closers during construction. Do not pull any conductors into raceways until all plastering in the
vicinity is completed. Swab out all raceways before pulling in conductors.
J.Penetrations: Wherever raceways pass through floors, walls partitions, etc., carefully fill any space
between the outside of the raceway and the building material to prevent passage of air, water, smoke and
fumes. Filling material shall be fire-resistive and installed to meet requirements of the UL Fire
Resistance Directory.
3.8 CONDUIT SUPPORTS
A.Support Spacing: Use minimum spacing as directed by National Electrical Code, but space hangers more
closely where required by conditions.
B.Vertical Conduit Risers: Support vertical conduits at each floor by means of riser clamps or U-bolts,
clamping them to a steel channel bridging the opening in the floor.
C.Individual Conduits: Support conduits running vertically or horizontally with galvanized malleable iron
one hole clamps. Carry individually supported horizontal conduits l-1/4" and larger on Kindorf No. 150
or Steel City No. C-149 hangers. Use no perforated strap iron as hanger material. Where conduits
smaller than 1-1/4" are installed above metal lath and plaster ceilings or mechanically suspended dry
ceilings of the non-removable type, they may be supported on ceiling runner channels. Where conduits
smaller than 1-1/4" are installed above removable ceilings, attach them to the structure or bar joists
(where present) or support them on threaded hanger rods with clips. Do not use any wire to support
conduits or to attach conduits to supporting members. Locate conduits a sufficient distance above the
ceiling to permit removal of the ceiling panels. Locate them so as not to hinder access to mechanical and
electrical equipment through the ceiling panels.
D.Multiple Conduits: Where multiple raceways are run horizontally at the same elevations, they may be
supported on trapezes formed of sections of Unistrut angle iron or channels suspended on rods or pipes.
Size trapeze members including the suspension rods for the number size and loaded weight of the
conduits they are to support. Space them as required for the smallest conduit supported.
