Schedulina Painting: Apply the first -coat material to surfaces
that have been cleaned, pretreated or otherwise prepared for
painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before
�^ subsequent surface deterioration.
Allow sufficient time between successive coatings to permit proper
,.. drying. Do not recoat until paint has dried to where it feels
firm, does not deform or feel sticky under moderate thumb pressure,
and the application of another coat of paint does not cause lifting
or loss of adhesion of the undercoat.
Minimum Coating Thickness: Apply each material at not less than
the mfr I s recommended spreading rate, to establish a total dry film
r- thickness as indicated or, if not indicated, as recommended by
coating mfr.
Prime Coats: Apply a prime coat of material which is required to
be painted or finished, and which has not been prime coated by
others.
r Recoat primed and sealed surfaces where there is evidence of
suction spots or unsealed areas in first coat, to assure a finish
coat with no burn -through or other defects due to insufficient
,.. sealing.

fine texture. Leave no evidence of rolling such as laps,
irregularity in texture, skid marks, or other surface
i; imperfections.
�- Pigmented (Opaque) Finishes: Completely cover to provide an
opaque, smooth surface of uniform finish, color, appearance and
coverage. Cloudiness, spotting, holidays, laps, brush marks, runs,
sags, ropiness or other surface imperfections will not be
acceptable.
Transparent (Clear) finishes: Use multiple coats to produce glass -
smooth surface film of even luster. Provide a finish free of laps,
cloudiness, color irregularity, runs, brush marks, orange peel,
nail holes, or other surface imperfections.
r' Provide satin finish for final coats, unless otherwise
indicated.

the beginning of the construction, without affecting the validity of this contract and the accompanying bond.

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

preparation for the work as.originally planned.

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. MAL PAYMENT
r I 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 agreement, and
shall certify same to the Owner, who shall pay to the Contractor on or before the 31 st day after the date of certificate of
completion, the balance due Contractor under the terms of this agreement, 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.
r
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 WITHBEID
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 Agreement, 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.
r..
7
i 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
r elective manners:
(a) The Owner may employ such force of men and use of machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies as said
Owner may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery, equipment,
tools, materials and supplies to said Contractor, and the expense so charged shall be deducted and paid by the
Owner out of such moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at any time become due to the Contractor under
and by virtue of this Agreement. In case such expense is less than the sum which would have been payable under
this contract, if the same had been completed by the Contractor, then said Contractor shall receive the difference.
In case such expense is greater than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had
been completed by said Contractor, then the Contractor and/or 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 tenors 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
r 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
r within the time designated hereinbbove, 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,
r., 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 terms
within ten (10) days after written notification by the Contractor, then the Contractor may suspend or wholly abandon the
work, and may remove therefrom all machinery, tools, and equipment, and all materiaN on the ground that have not been
included in payments to the Contractor and have not been incorporated into the work. Thereupon, the Owner's
Representative shall make an estimate of the total amount earned by the Contractor, which estimate shall include the value
of all work actually completed by said Contractor at the prices stated in the the attached. proposal, the value of all partially
completed work at a fair and equitable price, and the amount of all Extra Work performed at the prices agreed upon, or
r" provided for by the tenors of this contract, and a reasonable sum to cover the cost of any provisions made by the Contractor
to carry the whole work to completion, and which cannot be utilized. The Owner's Representative shall then make a final
statement of the balance due the Contractor by deducting from the above estimate all previous payments by the Owner and
�^ all other sums that may be retained by the Owner under the terms of this Agreement, and shall certify same to the Owner
who shall pay to the Contractor on or before thirty (30) days after the date of the notification by the Contractor the balance
shown by said final statement as due the Contractor, under the terms of this Agreement.
51. BONDS
The successful bidder shall be required to furnish a performance bond and payment bond in accordance with Article 5160,
Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes in the amount of 100% of the total contract price, in the event said contract price exceeds
$25,000.00. If the contract price does not exceed $25,000.00, the statutory bonds will not be required. All bonds, if
required, shall be submitted on forms supplied by the Owner, and executed by an approved Surety Company authorized to
do business in the State of Texas. And it is further agreed that this contract shall not be in effect until such bonds are so
furnished.
52. SPECIAL CONDITIONS
In the event special conditions are contained herein as part of the contract documents and said special conditions conflict
with any of the general conditions contained in this contract, then in such event the special conditions shall control.
53. LOSSES FROM NATURAL CAUSES
Unless otherwise specified herein, all loss or damage to the Contractor arising out of the nature of the work to be done, or
from the action of the elements, or from any unforeseen circumstance and the prosecution of the same, or from unusual
obstructions or difficulties which may be encountered in the prosecution of the work, shall be sustained and borne by the
Contractor at his own cost and expense.
54. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
Contractor is, and shall remain, an independent contractor with full, complete and exclusive power and authority to direct,
supervise, and control his own employees and to determine the method of the performance of the work covered hereby. The
fact that the Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right to observe Contractor's work during his performance and
to carry out the other prerogatives which are expressly reserved to and vested in the Owner or Owner's Representative
hereunder, is not intended to and shall not at any time change or effect the status of the Contractor as an independent
contractor with respect to either the Owner or Owner's Representative or to the Contractor's own employees or to any other
person, firm, or corporation.
55. CLEANING UP
The Contractor shall at all times keep the premises free from accumulation of debris caused by the work, and at the
completion of the work he shall remove all such debris and also his tools, scaffolding, and surplus materials and shall leave
the work room clean or its equivalent. The work shall be left in good order and condition. In case of dispute Owner may
remove the debris and charge the cost to the Contractor.

,EXECUTION
INSPECTION:
Masonry Installer must examine the areas and conditions under which
masonry is to be installed and notify the Contractor in writing of
conditions detrimental to the proper and timely completion of the
work. Do not proceed with the work until unsatisfactory conditions
have been corrected in a manner acceptable to masonry Installer.
INSTALLATION, GENERAL:
Thickness: Build masonry construction to the full thickness shown,
except, build single-wythe walls (if any) to the actual thickness
of the masonry units, using units of nominal thickness shown or
specified.
Build chases and recesses as shown and as required for the work of
other trades. Provide not less than 8" of masonry between chase or
recess and jamb of openings, and between adjacent chases and
recesses.
cut masonry units with motor. -driven saw designed to cut masonry
with clean sharp, unchipped edges. cut units as required to
provide pattern shown,and to fit adjoining work neatly. Use full
units without cutting wherever possible.
Do not wet concrete masonry units.
Frozen Materials and Work: Do not use frozen materials or
materials mixed or coated with ice or frost. For masonry which is
specified to be wetted, comply with the BIA recommendations. Do
not build on frozen work. Remove and replace masonry work damaged
by frost or freezing.
Do not lower the freezing point of mortar by use of admixtures or
antifreeze agents.
Do not use calcium chloride in mortar or grout.
Pattern Bond: Lay exposed masonry in the bond pattern shown, or if
not shown, lay in running bond vertical joint in each course
centered on units in courses above and below. Lay concealed
masonry with all units in a wythe bonded by lapping not less than
211. Bond and interlock each course of each wythe at corners,
unless otherwise shown.
Layout walls in advance for accurate spacing of surface bond
patterns, with uniform joint widths and to properly locate
UNIT MASONRY WORK 4AO-4
openings, movement -type joints, returns and offsets. Avoid the use
`
of less -than -half-size units at corners, jambs and wherever
possible at other locations.
r,
Lay-up walls plumb and true and with courses level, accurately
spaced and coordinated with other work.
i"
Stopping and Resuming Work: Rack back 1/2-masonry unit length in
each course, do not tooth. Clean exposed surfaces of set masonry,
�.
wet units lightly (if specified to be wetted), and remove loose
masonry units and mortar prior to laying fresh masonry.
Built -In Work: As the work progresses, build -in items specified
under this and other sections of these specifications. Fill in
solidly with masonry around built-in items.
r»
Where built-in items are to be embedded in cores of hollow
masonry units, place a layer of metal lath in the joint below
`
and rod mortar or grout into core.
Intersecting Load -Bearing Walls: If carried up separately, block
vertical joint with 8" maximum offsets and provide rigid steel
anchors spaced not more than 4'-0" o.c. vertically, or omit
blocking and provide rigid steel anchors at not more than 2'-0"
o.c. vertically. Form anchors of galvanized steel not less than 1-
1/2" x 1/4" x 2'-0" Tong -with ends turned up not less than 211 or
with cross -pins. If used with hollow masonry units, embed ends in
mortar filled cores.
MORTAR BEDDING AND JOINTING:
Mortar Mixes: ASTM C 270, Proportion Specifications, and of the
following types.
Use type S mortar for exterior above grade loadbearing and non-
loadbearing walls, parapet walls, pavements, and for interior
loadbearing walls and non-loadbearing partitions.
Batch control: Measure and batch materials either by volume or
weight, such that the required proportions for mortar can be
accurately controlled and maintained. Measurement of sand
exclusively by shovel will not be permitted.
r. Mix mortars with the maximum amount of water consistent with
workability to provide maximum tensile bond strength within the
capacity of the mortar.
Mix mortar ingredients for a minimum of 5 minutes in a mechanical
batch mixer. Use water clean and free of deleterious materials
which would impair the work. Do not use mortar which has begun to
set, or if more than 2-1/2 hours has elapsed since initial mixing.
Retemper mortar during 2-1/2 hr. period as required to restore
workability.

i'
Lay hollow concrete masonry units with full mortar coverage on
horizontal and vertical face shells; 'also bed webs in mortar in
starting course on footings and foundation walls and in all courses
of piers, columns and pilasters, and 'where adjacent to cells or
cavities to be reinforced or to be filled with concrete or grout.
Joints: Maintain joint widths shown, except for minor variations
required to maintain bond alignment. If not otherwise indicated,
lay walls with 3/8" joints. Cut joints flush for masonry walls
which are to be concealed or to be covered by other materials.
Tool exposed joints lightly concave. Rake out mortar in
preparation for application of caulking or sealants where shown.
Remove masonry units disturbed after laying; clean and relay in
fresh mortar. Do not pound corners at jambs to fit stretcher units
which have been set in position. If adjustments are required,
remove units, clean off mortar, and reset in fresh mortar.
Collar Joints: Fill joints between wythes solidly with mortar by
parging either the back of the facing, or the face of the backing,
and shove units solidly into parging.
STRUCTURAL BONDING OF MULTI-WYTHE MASONRY:
Use individual metal ties embedded in horizontal joints to bond
wythes together. Provide ties as shown, but less than one metal
tie for 4 sq. ft. of wall area spaced not to exceed 24" o.c.
horizontally and vertically. Stagger ties in alternate courses.
Provide additional ties within 1'-0" of all openings and space not
more than 3'-0" apart around perimeter of openings.- At
intersecting and abutting walls, provide ties at not more than 24"
o.c. vertically.
Use continuous joint reinforcing embedded in horizontal joints for
bond ,tie between wythes. Install at not more than 16" o.c.
vertically as specified. Provide continuity, at corners and
intersections using prefabricated "L" and 'IT" units.
HORIZONTAL JOINT REINFORCING:
Provide continuous horizontal joint reinforcing as shown and
specified. Fully embed longitudinal side rods in mortar for their
entire length with a minimum cover of 5/8" on exterior side of
walls and 1/2" at other locations. Lap, reinforcement a minimum of
6" at ends of units. Do not bridge control and expansion joints
with reinforcing, as otherwise indicated. Provide continuity at
corners and wall intersections by use of prefabricated "L" and "T"
,sections. Cut and bend units as directed by manufacturer for
continuity at :returns, offsets, -column fireproofing, pipe
enclosures and other special conditions.
Space continuous horizontal reinforcing as follows:
