called for, erasures, alterations, or irregularities of any kind or which do not comply with these
Instructions to Bidders may be rejected as informal or non-responsive at the option of Owner.

to CONTRACTOR until acceptable schedules are submitted
to ENGINEER.
1. The progress schedule will be acceptable to
ENGINEER if it provides an orderly progression of the
Work to completion within any specified Milestones and
the Contract Times. Such acceptance will not impose on
ENGINEER responsibility for the progress schedule, for
sequencing, scheduling, or progress of the Work nor
interfere with or relieve CONTRACTOR from
CONTRACTOR's full responsibility therefor.
2. CONTRACTOR's schedule of Shop Drawing and
Sample submittals will be acceptable to ENGINEER if it
provides a workable arrangement for reviewing and
processing the required submittals.

subsurface conditions at or contiguous to the Site that
ENGINEER has used in preparing the Contract Docu-
ments; and
2. those drawings of physical conditions in or
relating to existing surface or subsurface structures at or
contiguous to the Site (except Underground Facilities) that
ENGINEER has used in preparing the Contract
Documents.
B. Limited Reliance by CONTRACTOR on Technical
Data Authorized: CONTRACTOR may rely upon the
general accuracy of the "technical data" contained in such
reports and drawings, but such reports and drawings are not
Contract Documents. Such "technical data" is identified in
the Supplementary Conditions. Except for such reliance on
such "technical data," CONTRACTOR may not rely upon or
make any Claim against OWNER, ENGINEER, or any of
ENGINEER's Consultants with respect to:
1. the completeness of such reports and drawings
for CONTRACTOR's purposes, including, but not
limited to, any aspects of the means, methods,
techniques, sequences, and procedures of construction to
be employed by CONTRACTOR, and safety precautions
and programs incident thereto; or
2. other data, interpretations, opinions, and
information contained in such reports or shown or
indicated in such drawings; or
3. any CONTRACTOR interpretation of or
conclusion drawn from any "technical data" or any such
other data, interpretations, opinions, or information.
4.03 Differing Subsurface or Physical Conditions .1
A. Notice: If CONTRACTOR believes that any subsur-
face or physical condition at or contiguous to the Site that is
uncovered or revealed either:
1. is of such a nature as to establish that any
"technical data" on which CONTRACTOR is entitled to
rely as provided in paragraph 4.02 is materially
inaccurate; or
2. is of such a nature as to require a change in the
Contract Documents; or
3. differs materially from that shown or indicated in
the Contract Documents; or
4. is of an unusual nature, and differs materially
from conditions ordinarily encountered and generally
recognized as inherent in work of the character provided
for in the Contract Documents;
then CONTRACTOR shall, promptly after becoming aware
thereof and before further disturbing the subsurface or
physical conditions or performing any Work in connection
therewith (except in an emergency as required by paragraph
6.16.A), notify OWNER and ENGINEER in writing about
such condition. CONTRACTOR shall not further disturb
such condition or perform any Work in connection therewith
(except as aforesaid) until receipt of written order to do so.
B. ENGINEER's Review: After receipt of written notice
as required by paragraph 4.03. A, ENGINEER will promptly
review the pertinent condition, determine the necessity of
OWNER's obtaining additional exploration or tests with
respect thereto, and advise OWNER in writing (with a copy
to CONTRACTOR) of ENGINEER's findings and
conclusions.
C. Possible Price and Times Adjustments
1. The Contract Price or the Contract Times, or
both, will be equitably adjusted to the extent that the
existence of such differing subsurface or physical
condition causes an increase or decrease in
CONTRACTOR's cost of, or time required for, perfor-
mance of the Work; subject, however, to the following:
a. such condition must meet any one or more of
the categories described in paragraph 4.03.A; and
b. with respect to Work that is paid for on a
Unit Price Basis, any adjustment in Contract Price
will be subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.08
and 11.03.

adjustment in the Coral act Price or Contract Timesif......
a. CONTRACTOR knew of the existence of
such conditions at the time CONTRACTOR made a
final commitment to OWNER in respect of Contract
Price and Contract Times by the submission of a Bid
or becoming bound under a negotiated contract; or
b. the existence of such condition could
reasonably have been discovered or revealed as a
result of any examination, investigation, exploration,
test, or study of the Site and contiguous areas
required by the Bidding Requirements or Contract
Documents to be conducted by or for CON-
TRACTOR prior to CONTRACTOR's making such
final commitment; or
c. CONTRACTOR failed to give the written
notice within the time and as required by paragraph
4.03.A.
3. If OWNER and CONTRACTOR are unable to
agree on entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if any,
of any adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract
Times, or both, a Claim may be made therefor as
provided in paragraph 10.05. However, OWNER,
ENGINEER, and ENGINEER's Consultants shall not be
liable to CONTRACTOR for any claims, costs, losses, or
damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges
of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals
and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution
costs) sustained by CONTRACTOR on or in connection
with any other project or anticipated project.

revealed at or contiguous to the Site which was not shown
or indicated, or not shown or indicated with reasonable
accuracy in the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR
shall, promptly after becoming aware thereof and before
further disturbing conditions affected thereby or
performing any Work in connection therewith (except in
an emergency as required by paragraph 6.16.A), identify
the owner of such Underground Facility and give written
notice to that owner and to OWNER and ENGINEER.
ENGINEER will promptly review the Underground
Facility and determine the extent, if any, to which a
change is required in the Contract Documents to reflect
and document the consequences of the existence or
location of the Underground Facility. During such time,
CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the safety and
protection of such Underground Facility.
2. If ENGINEER concludes that a change in the
Contract Documents is required, a Work Change
Directive or a Change Order will be issued to reflect and
document such consequences. An equitable adjustment
shall be made in the Contract Price of Contract Times, or
both, to the extent that they are attributable to the
existence or location of any Underground Facility that
was not shown or indicated or not shown or indicated
with reasonable accuracy in the Contract Documents and
that CONTRACTOR did not know of and could not
reasonably have been expected to be aware of or to have
anticipated. If OWNER and CONTRACTOR are unable
to agree on entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if
any, of any such adjustment in Contract Price or Contract
Times, OWNER or CONTRACTOR may make a Claim
therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05.
4.05 Reference Points
A. OWNER shall provide engineering surveys to
establish reference points for construction which in
ENGINEER's judgment are necessary to enable CON-
TRACTOR to proceed with the Work. CONTRACTOR
shall be responsible for laying out the Work, shall protect and
preserve the established reference points and property
' 00700-13
monuments, and shall make no changes or relocations
without the prior written approval of OWNER.
CONTRACTOR shall report to ENGINEER whenever any
reference point or property monument is lost or destroyed or
requires relocation because of necessary changes in grades or
locations, and shall be responsible for the accurate
replacement or relocation of such reference points or
property monuments by professionally qualified personnel.
4.06 Hazardous Environmental Condition at Site
A. Reports and Drawings: Reference is made to the
Supplementary Conditions for the identification of those
reports and drawings relating to a Hazardous Environmental
Condition identified at the Site, if any, that have been utilized
by the ENGINEER in the preparation of the Contract
Documents.
B. Limited Reliance by CONTRACTOR on Technical
Data Authorized: CONTRACTOR may rely upon the
general accuracy of the "technical data" contained in such
reports and drawings, but such reports and drawings are not
Contract Documents. Such "technical data" is identified in
the Supplementary Conditions. Except for such reliance on
such "technical data," CONTRACTOR may not rely upon or
make any Claim against OWNER, ENGINEER or any of
ENGINEER's Consultants with respect to:
1. the completeness of such reports and drawings
for CONTRACTOR's purposes, including, but not
limited to, any aspects of the means, methods,
techniques, sequences and procedures of construction to
be employed by CONTRACTOR and safety precautions
and programs incident thereto; or
2. other data, interpretations, opinions and
information contained in such reports or shown or
indicated in such drawings; or
3. any CONTRACTOR interpretation of or
conclusion drawn from any "technical data" or any such
other data, interpretations, opinions or information.
C. CONTRACTOR shall not be responsible for any
Hazardous Environmental Condition uncovered or revealed
at the Site which was not shown or indicated in Drawings or
Specifications or identified in the Contract Documents to be
within the scope of the Work. CONTRACTOR shall be
responsible for a Hazardous Environmental Condition created
with any materials brought to the Site by CONTRACTOR,
Subcontractors, Suppliers, or anyone else for whom CON-
TRACTOR is responsible.
D. If CONTRACTOR encounters a Hazardous
Environmental Condition or if CONTRACTOR or anyone for
whom CONTRACTOR is responsible creates a Hazardous
Environmental Condition, CONTRACTOR shall immedi-
ately: (i) secure or otherwise isolate such condition; (ii) stop
all Work in connection with such condition and in any area
affected thereby (except in an emergency as required by
paragraph 6.16); and (iii) notify OWNER and ENGINEER
(and promptly thereafter confirm such notice in writing).
OWNER shall promptly consult with ENGINEER concerning
the necessity for OWNER to retain a qualified expert to
evaluate such condition or take corrective action, if any.
E. CONTRACTOR shall not be required to resume
Work in connection with such condition or in any affected
area until after OWNER has obtained any required permits
related thereto and delivered to CONTRACTOR written
notice: (i) specifying that such condition and any affected
area is or has been rendered safe for the resumption of Work;
or (ii) specifying any special conditions under which such
Work may be resumed safely. If OWNER and
CONTRACTOR cannot agree as to entitlement to or on the
amount or extent, if any, of any adjustment in Contract Price
or Contract Times, or both, as a result of such Work stop-
page or such special conditions under which Work is agreed
to be resumed by CONTRACTOR, either party may make a
Claim therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05.
F. If after receipt of such written notice
CONTRACTOR does not agree to resume such Work based
on a reasonable belief it is unsafe, or does not agree to
resume such Work under such special conditions, then
OWNER may order the portion of the Work that is in the
area affected by such condition to be deleted from the Work.
If OWNER and CONTRACTOR cannot agree as to
entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if any, of an
adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Times as a result of
deleting such portion. of the Work, then either party may
make a Claim therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05.
OWNER may have such deleted portion of the Work
performed by OWNER's own forces or others in accordance
with Article 7.
G. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, OWNER shall, indemnify and hold harmless
CONTRACTOR, Subcontractors, ENGINEER,
ENGINEER's Consultants and the officers, directors,
partners, employees, agents, other consultants, and
subcontractors of each and any of them from and against all
claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited
to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and
other professionals and all court or arbitration or other
dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to a
Hazardous Environmental Condition, provided that ' such
Hazardous Environmental Condition: (i) was not shown or
indicated in the Drawings or Specifications or identified in
the Contract Documents to be included within the scope of
the Work, and (ii) was not created by CONTRACTOR or by
anyone for whom CONTRACTOR is responsible. Nothing

directors, partners, employees, agents, and other consultants
and subcontractors of each and any of them) in such policies
and will provide primary coverage for all losses and damages
caused by the perils or causes of loss covered thereby. All
such policies shall contain provisions to the effect that in the
event of payment of any loss or damage the insurers will
have no rights of recovery against any of the insureds or
additional insureds thereunder. OWNER and CONTRAC-
TOR waive all rights against each other and their respective
officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, and other
consultants and subcontractors of each and any of them for
all losses and damages caused by, arising out of or resulting

ing any loss, damage or consequential loss referred to in
paragraph 5.07.B shall contain provisions to the effect that in
the event of payment of any such loss, damage, or
consequential. loss, the insurers will have no rights of
recovery against CONTRACTOR, Subcontractors,
ENGINEER, or ENGINEER's Consultants and the officers,
directors, partners, employees, agents, and other consultants
and subcontractors of each and any of them.
5.08 Receipt and Application of Insurance Proceeds
A. Any insured loss under the policies of insurance

OWNER shall deposit in a separate account any money so
received and shall distribute it in accordance with such agree-
ment as the parties in interest may reach. If no other special
agreement is reached, the damaged Work shall be repaired or
replaced, the moneys so received applied on account thereof,
and the Work and the cost thereof covered by an appropriate
Change Order or Written Amendment.
B. OWNER as fiduciary shall have power to adjust and
settle any loss with the insurers unless one of the parties in
interest shall object in writing within 15 days after the
occurrence of loss to OWNER's exercise of this power. If
such objection be made, OWNER as fiduciary shall make
settlement with the insurers in accordance with such
agreement as the parties in interest may reach. If no such
agreement among the parties in interest is reached, OWNER.
as fiduciary shall adjust and settle the loss with the insurers
and, if required in writing by any party in interest, OWNER
as fiduciary shall give bond for the proper performance of
such duties.
5.09 Acceptance of Ponds and Insurance; Option to
Replace

objection to the coverage afforded by or other provisions of
the Bonds or insurance required to be purchased and
maintained by the other party in accordance with Article 5 on
the basis of non-conformance with the Contract Documents,
the objecting party shall so notify the other party in writing
within 10 days after receipt of the certificates (or other
evidence requested) required by paragraph 2.05.C. OWNER
and CONTRACTOR shall each provide to the other such
additional information in respect of insurance provided as the
other may reasonably request. If either party does not
purchase or maintain all of the Bonds and insurance required
of such patty by the Contract Documents, such party shall
notify the other party in writing of such failure to purchase
prior to the start of the Work, or of such failure to maintain
prior to any change in the required coverage. Without
prejudice to any other right or remedy, the other party may
elect to obtain equivalent Bonds or insurance to protect such
other party's interests at the expense of the party who was
required to provide such coverage, and a Change Order shall
be issued to adjust the Contract Price accordingly.
5.10 Partial Utilization, Acknowledgment of Property
Insurer
A. If OWNER finds it necessary to occupy or use a
portion or portions of the Work prior to Substantial
Completion of all the Work as provided in paragraph 14.05,
no such use or occupancy shall commence before the insurers
providing the property insurance pursuant to paragraph 5.06
have acknowledged notice thereof and in writing effected any
changes in coverage necessitated thereby. The insurers
providing the property insurance shall consent by endorse-
ment on the policy or policies, but the property insurance
shall not be canceled or permitted to lapse on account of any
such partial use or occupancy.

qualified personnel to survey, lay out, and construct the
Work as required by the Contract Documents. CON-
TRACTOR shall at all times maintain good discipline and
order at the Site.
B. Except as otherwise required for the safety or
protection of persons or the Work or property at the Site or
adjacent thereto, and except as otherwise stated in the
Contract Documents, all Work at the Site shall be performed
during regular working hours, and CONTRACTOR will not
permit overtime work or the performance of Work on
Saturday, Sunday, or any legal holiday without OWNER's
written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld)
given after prior written notice to ENGINEER.
6.03 Services, Materials, and Equipment
A. Unless otherwise specified in the General Re-
quirements, CONTRACTOR shall provide and assume full
responsibility for all services, materials, equipment, labor,
transportation, construction equipment and machinery, tools,

established in accordance with paragraph 2.07 as it may be
adjusted from time to time as provided below.
1. CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER for
acceptance (to the extent indicated in paragraph 2.07)
proposed adjustments in the progress schedule that will
not result in changing the Contract Times (or Milestones).
Such adjustments will conform generally to the progress
schedule then in effect and additionally will comply with
any provisions of the General Requirements applicable
thereto.
2. Proposed adjustments in the progress schedule
that will change the Contract Times (or Milestones) shall
be submitted in accordance with the requirements of
Article 12. Such adjustments may only be made by a
Change Order or Written Amendment in accordance with
Article 12.
6.05 Substitutes and "Or -Equals"
A. Whenever an item of material or equipment is
specified or described in the Contract Documents by using
the name of a proprietary item or the name of a particular
Supplier, the specification or description is intended to
establish the type, function, appearance, and quality required.
Unless the specification or description contains or is followed
by words reading that no like, equivalent, or "or -equal" item
or no substitution is permitted, other items of material or
equipment or material or equipment of other Suppliers may
be submitted to ENGINEER for review under the circum-
stances described below.
1. "Or -Equal" Items: If in ENGINEER's sole
discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by
CONTRACTOR is functionally equal to that named and
sufficiently similar so that no change in related Work will
be required, it may be considered by ENGINEER as an
"or -equal" item, in which case review and approval of
the proposed item may, in ENGINEER's sole discretion,
be accomplished without compliance with some or all of
the requirements for approval of proposed substitute
items. For the purposes of this paragraph 6.05.A.1, a
proposed item of material or equipment will be
considered functionally equal to an item so named if:
a. in the exercise of reasonable judgment
ENGINEER determines that: (i) it is at least equal in
quality, durability, appearance, strength, and design
characteristics; (ii) it will reliably perform at least
equally well the function imposed by the design
concept of the completed Project as a functioning
whole, and;
b. CONTRACTOR certifies that: (i) there is no
increase in cost to the OWNER; and (ii) it will
conform substantially, even with deviations, to the
detailed requirements of the item named in the
Contract Documents.
2. Substitute Items
a. If in ENGINEER's sole discretion an item of
material or equipment proposed by CONTRACTOR
does not qualify as an "or -equal" item under
I
[,IiYLi1iVJ
I
paragraph 6.05.A.1, it will be considered a proposed
substitute item.
b. CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient
information as provided below to allow ENGINEER
to determine that the item of material or equipment
proposed is essentially equivalent to that named and
an acceptable substitute therefor. Requests for
review of proposed substitute items of material or
equipment will not be accepted by ENGINEER from
anyone other than CONTRACTOR.
c. The procedure for review by ENGINEER
will be as set forth in paragraph 6.05.A.2.d, as
supplemented in the General Requirements and as
ENGINEER may decide is appropriate under the
circumstances.
d. CONTRACTOR shall first make written
application to ENGINEER for review of a proposed
substitute item of material or equipment that
CONTRACTOR seeks to furnish or use. The
application shall certify that the proposed substitute
item will perform adequately the functions and
achieve the results called for by the general design,
be similar in substance to that specified, and be suited
to the same use as that specified. The application
will state the extent, if any, to which the use of the
proposed substitute item will prejudice
CONTRACTOR's achievement of Substantial
Completion on time, whether or not use of the
proposed substitute item in the Work will require a
change in any of the Contract Documents (or in the
provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER
for work on the Project) to adapt the design to the
proposed substitute item and whether or not
incorporation or use of the proposed substitute item
in connection with the Work is subject to payment of
any license fee or royalty. All variations of the pro-
posed substitute item from that specified will be
identified in the application, and available
engineering, sales, maintenance, repair, and
replacement services will be indicated. The
application will also contain an itemized estimate of
all costs or credits that will result directly or indi-
rectly from use of such substitute item, including
costs of redesign and claims of other contractors
affected by any resulting change, all of which will be
considered by ENGINEER in evaluating the proposed
substitute item. ENGINEER may require CON-
TRACTOR to furnish additional data about the pro-
posed substitute item.
B. Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures: If a
specific means, method, technique, sequence, or procedure
of construction is shown or indicated in and expressly
required by the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR may
furnish or utilize a substitute means, method, technique,
sequence, or procedure of construction approved by ENGI-
NEER. CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient information
to allow ENGINEER, in ENGINEER's sole discretion, to
determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that
expressly called for by the Contract Documents. The proce-
dure for review by ENGINEER will be similar to that
provided in subparagraph 6.05.A.2.
C. Engineer's Evaluation: ENGINEER will be allowed
a reasonable time within which to evaluate each proposal or
submittal made pursuant to paragraphs 6.05.A and 6.05.B.
ENGINEER will be the sole judge of acceptability. No
"or -equal" or substitute will be ordered, installed or utilized
until ENGINEER's review is complete, which will be
evidenced by either a Change Order for a substitute or an
approved Shop Drawing for an "or equal." ENGINEER will
advise CONTRACTOR in writing of any negative
determination.
D. Special Guarantee: OWNER may require CON-
TRACTOR to furnish at CONTRACTOR's expense a special
performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any
substitute.
E. ENGINEER's Cost Reimbursement: ENGINEER will
record time required by ENGINEER and ENGINEER's
Consultants in evaluating substitute proposed or submitted by
CONTRACTOR pursuant to paragraphs 6.05.A.2 and 6.05.B
and in making changes in the Contract Documents (or in the
provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER for
work on the Project) occasioned thereby. Whether or not
ENGINEER approves a substitute item so proposed or
submitted by CONTRACTOR, CONTRACTOR shall
reimburse OWNER for the charges of ENGINEER and
ENGINEER's Consultants for evaluating each such proposed
substitute.
F. CONTRACTOR's Expense: CONTRACTOR shall
provide all data in support of any proposed substitute or
"or -equal" at CONTRACTOR's expense.
6.06 Concerning Subcontractors, Suppliers, and Others
A. CONTRACTOR shall not employ any Subcontractor.
Supplier, or other individual or entity (including those
acceptable to OWNER as indicated in paragraph 6.06.B),
whether initially or as a replacement, against whom OWNER
may have reasonable objection. CONTRACTOR shall not be
required to employ any Subcontractor, Supplier, or other
individual or entity to furnish or perform any of the Work
against whom CONTRACTOR has reasonable objection.
B. If the Supplementary Conditions require the identity
of certain Subcontractors, Suppliers, or other individuals or

entities to be submitted to OWNER in advance for acceptance
by OWNER by a specified date prior to the Effective Date of
the Agreement, and if CONTRACTOR has submitted a list
thereof in accordance with the Supplementary Conditions,
OWNER's acceptance (either in writing or by failing to make
written objection thereto by the date indicated for acceptance
or objection in the Bidding Documents or the Contract
Documents) of any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or other
individual or entity so identified may be revoked on the basis
of reasonable objection after due investigation. CON-
TRACTOR shall submit an acceptable replacement for the
rejected Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or
entity, and the Contract Price will be adjusted by the differ-
ence in the cost occasioned by such replacement, and an
appropriate Change Order will be issued or Written
Amendment signed. No acceptance by OWNER of any such
Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity,
whether initially or as a replacement, shall constitute a
waiver of any right of OWNER or ENGINEER to reject
defective Work.
C. CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible to
OWNER and ENGINEER for all acts and omissions of the
Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities
performing or furnishing any of the Work just as
CONTRACTOR is responsible for CONTRACTOR's own
acts and omissions. Nothing in the Contract Documents shall
create for the benefit of any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or
other individual or entity any contractual relationship between
OWNER or ENGINEER and any such Subcontractor,
Supplier or other individual or entity, nor shall it create any
obligation on the part of OWNER or ENGINEER to pay or
to see to the payment of any moneys due any such Subcon-
tractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity except as may
otherwise be required by Laws and Regulations.
D. CONTRACTOR shall be solely responsible for
scheduling, and coordinating the Work of Subcontractors,
Suppliers, and other individuals or entities performing or
furnishing any of the Work under a direct or indirect contract
with CONTRACTOR.
E. CONTRACTOR shall require all Subcontractors,
Suppliers, and such other individuals or entities performing
or furnishing any of the Work to communicate with ENGI-
NEER through CONTRACTOR.
F. The divisions and sections of the Specifications and
the identifications of any Drawings shall not control
CONTRACTOR in dividing the Work among Subcontractors
or Suppliers or delineating the Work to be performed by any
specific trade.
G. All Work performed for CONTRACTOR by a
Subcontractor or Supplier will be pursuant to an appropriate
agreement between CONTRACTOR and the Subcontractor
or Supplier which specifically binds the Subcontractor or
Supplier to the applicable terms and conditions of the
Contract Documents for the benefit of OWNER and
ENGINEER. Whenever any such agreement is with a
Subcontractor or Supplier who is listed as an additional
insured on the property insurance provided in paragraph
5.06, the agreement between the CONTRACTOR and the
Subcontractor or Supplier will contain provisions whereby
the Subcontractor or Supplier waives all rights against
OWNER, CONTRACTOR, ENGINEER, ENGINEER's
Consultants, and all other individuals or entities identified in
the Supplementary Conditions to be listed as insureds or
additional insureds (and the officers, directors, partners,
employees, agents, and other consultants and subcontractors
of each and any of them) for all losses and damages caused
by, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from any of the
perils or causes of loss covered by such policies and any
other property insurance applicable to the Work. If the
insurers on any such policies require separate waiver forms
to be signed by any Subcontractor or Supplier, CONTRAC-
TOR will obtain the same.
6.07 Patent Fees and Royalties
A. CONTRACTOR shall pay all license fees and
royalties and assume all costs incident to the use in the
performance of the Work or the incorporation in the Work of
any invention, design, process, product, or device which is
the subject of patent rights or copyrights held by others. If
a particular invention, design, process, product, or device is
specified in the Contract Documents for use in the
performance of the Work and if to the actual knowledge of
OWNER or ENGINEER its use is subject to patent rights or
copyrights calling for the payment of any license fee or
royalty to others, the existence of such rights shall be
disclosed by OWNER in the Contract Documents. To the
fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations,
CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold harmless
OWNER, ENGINEER, ENGINEER's Consultants, and the
officers, directors, partners, employees or agents, and other
consultants of each and any of them from and against all
claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited
to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and
other professionals and all court or arbitration or other
dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to any
infringement of patent rights or copyrights incident to the use
in the performance of the Work or resulting from the
incorporation in the Work of any invention, design, process,
product, or device not specified in the Contract Documents.
6.08 Permits
A. Unless otherwise provided in the Supplementary
Conditions, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and pay for all
construction permits and licenses. OWNER shall assist
CONTRACTOR, when necessary, in obtaining such permits

charges and inspection fees necessary for the prosecution of
the Work which are applicable at the time of opening of Bids,
or, if there are no Bids, on the Effective Date of the
Agreement. CONTRACTOR shall pay all charges of utility
owners for connections to the Work, and OWNER shall pay
all charges of such utility owners for capital costs related
thereto, such as plant investment fees.
6.09 Laws and Regulations
A. CONTRACTOR shall give all notices and comply
with all Laws and Regulations applicable to the performance
of the Work. Except where otherwise expressly required by
applicable Laws and Regulations, neither OWNER nor
ENGINEER shall be responsible for monitoring
CONTRACTOR's compliance with any Laws or Regulations.
B. If CONTRACTOR performs any Work knowing or
having reason to know that it is contrary to Laws or
Regulations, CONTRACTOR shall bear all claims, costs,
losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and
charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other
professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute
resolution costs) arising out of or relating to such Work;
however, it shall not be CONTRACTOR's primary
responsibility to make certain that the Specifications and
Drawings are in accordance with Laws and Regulations, but
this shall not relieve CONTRACTOR of CONTRACTOR's
obligations under paragraph 3.03.
C. Changes in Laws or Regulations not known at the
time of opening of Bids (or, on the Effective Date of the
Agreement if there were no Bids) having an effect on the cost
or time of performance of the Work may be the subject of an
adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Times. If OWNER
and CONTRACTOR are unable to agree on entitlement to or
on the amount or extent, if any, of any such adjustment, a
Claim may be made therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05.
6.10 Taxes
A. CONTRACTOR shall pay all sales, consumer, use,
and other similar taxes required to be paid by CONTRAC-
TOR in accordance with the Laws and Regulations of the
place of the Project which are applicable during the

3. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold
harmless OWNER, ENGINEER, ENGINEER's
Consultant, and the officers, directors, partners,
employees, agents, and other consultants of each and any
of them from and against all claims, costs, losses, and
damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges
of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals
and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution
costs) arising out of or relating to any claim or action,
legal or equitable, brought by any such owner or occupant
against OWNER, ENGINEER, or any other party
indemnified hereunder to the extent caused by or based
upon CONTRACTOR's performance of the Work.
B. Removal of Debris During Performance of the Work:
During the progress of the Work CONTRACTOR shall keep
the Site and other areas free from accumulations of waste
materials, rubbish, and other debris. Removal and disposal
of such waste materials, rubbish, and other debris shall con-
form to applicable Laws and Regulations.
C. Cleaning: Prior to Substantial Completion of the
Work CONTRACTOR shall clean the Site and make it ready
for utilization by OWNER. At the completion of the Work
CONTRACTOR shall remove from the Site all tools,
appliances, construction equipment and machinery, and
surplus materials and shall restore to original condition all
property not designated for alteration by the Contract
Documents.
D. Loading Structures: CONTRACTOR shall not load
nor permit any part of any structure to be loaded in any
manner that will endanger the structure, nor shall
CONTRACTOR subject any part of the Work or adjacent

documents, Samples, and Shop Drawings will be delivered to
ENGINEER for OWNER.
6.13 Safety and Protection
A. CONTRACTOR shall be solely responsible for
initiating, maintaining and supervising all safety precautions
and programs in connection with the Work. CONTRACTOR
shall take all necessary precautions for the safety of, and
shall provide the necessary protection to prevent damage,
injury or loss to:
1. all persons on the Site or who may be affected
by the Work;
2. all the Work and materials and equipment to be

not designated for removal, relocation, or replacement in
the course of construction.
B. CONTRACTOR shall comply with all applicable
Laws and Regulations relating to the safety of persons or
property, or to the protection of persons or property from
damage, injury, or loss; and shall erect and maintain all
necessary safeguards for such safety and protection.
CONTRACTOR shall notify owners of adjacent property and
of Underground Facilities and other utility owners when
prosecution of the Work may affect them, and shall cooperate
with them in the protection, removal, relocation, and
replacement of their property. All damage, injury, or loss to
any property referred to in paragraph 6.13.A.2 or 6.13.A.3
caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by CON-
TRACTOR, any Subcontractor, Supplier, or any other
individual or entity directly or indirectly employed by any of
them to perform any of the Work, or anyone for whose acts
any of them may be liable, shall be remedied by
CONTRACTOR (except damage or loss attributable to the
fault of Drawings or Specifications or to the acts or
omissions of OWNER or ENGINEER or ENGINEER's Con-
sultant, or anyone employed by any of them, or anyone for
whose acts any of them may be liable, and not attributable,
directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, to the fault or
negligence of CONTRACTOR or any Subcontractor,
Supplier, or other individual or entity directly or indirectly
employed by any of them). CONTRACTOR's duties and
responsibilities for safety and for protection of the Work shall
continue until such time as all the Work is completed and
ENGINEER has issued a notice to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR in accordance with paragraph 14.07.B that
the Work is acceptable (except as otherwise expressly
provided in connection with Substantial Completion).
6.14 Safety Representative

A. In emergencies affecting the safety or protection of
persons or the Work or property at the Site or adjacent
thereto, CONTRACTOR is obligated to act to prevent
threatened damage, injury, or loss. CONTRACTOR shall
give ENGINEER prompt written notice if CONTRACTOR
believes that any significant changes in the Work or
variations from the Contract Documents have been caused
thereby or are required as a result thereof. If ENGINEER
determines that a change in the Contract Documents is
required because of the action taken by CONTRACTOR in
response to such an emergency, a Work Change Directive or
Change Order will be issued.
6.17 Shop Drawings and Samples
A. CONTRACTOR shall submit Shop Drawings to
ENGINEER for review and approval in accordance with the
acceptable schedule of Shop Drawings and Sample
submittals. All submittals will be identified as ENGINEER
may require and in the number of copies specified in the

I
00700-23
Ii
11
submittals. Each Sample will be identified clearly as to
material, Supplier, pertinent data such as catalog numbers,
and the use for which intended and otherwise as ENGINEER
may require to enable ENGINEER to review the submittal
for the limited purposes required by paragraph 6.17.E. The
numbers of each Sample to be submitted will be as specified
in the Specifications.
C. Where a Shop Drawing or Sample is required by the
Contract Documents or the schedule of Shop Drawings and
Sample submittals acceptable to ENGINEER as required by
paragraph 2.07, any related Work performed prior to
ENGINEER's review and approval of the pertinent submittal
will be at the sole expense and responsibility of
CONTRACTOR.
D. Submittal Procedures
1. Before submitting each Shop Drawing or Sample,
CONTRACTOR shall have determined and verified:
a. all field measurements, quantities, dimen-
sions, specified performance criteria, installation
requirements, materials, catalog numbers, and
similar information with respect thereto;
b. all materials with respect to intended use,
fabrication, shipping, handling, storage, assembly,
and installation pertaining to the performance of the
Work;
c. all information relative to means, methods,
techniques, sequences, and procedures of construc-
tion and safety precautions and, programs incident
thereto; and
d. CONTRACTOR shall also have reviewed
and coordinated each Shop Drawing or Sample with
other Shop Drawings and Samples and with the
requirements of the Work and the Contract Docu-
ments.
2. Each submittal shall bear a stamp or specific
written indication that CONTRACTOR has satisfied
CONTRACTOR's obligations under the Contract
Documents with respect to CONTRACTOR's review and
approval of that submittal.
3. At the time of each submittal. CONTRACTOR
shall give ENGINEER specific written notice of such
variations, if any, that the Shop Drawing or Sample
submitted may have from the requirements of the
Contract Documents, such notice to be in a written com-
munication separate from the submittal; and, in addition,
shall cause a specific notation to be made on each Shop
Drawing and Sample submitted to ENGINEER for review
and approval of each such variation.
E. ENGINEER's Review
1. ENGINEER will timely review and approve
Shop Drawings and Samples in accordance with the
schedule of Shop Drawings and Sample submittals
acceptable to ENGINEER. ENGINEER's review and
approval will be only to determine if the items covered by
the submittals will, after installation or incorporation in
the Work, conform to the information given in the
Contract Documents and be compatible with the design
concept of the completed Project as a functioning whole
as indicated by the Contract Documents.
2. ENGINEER's review and approval will not
extend to means, methods, techniques, sequences, or
procedures of construction (except where a particular
means, method, technique, sequence, or procedure of
construction is specifically and expressly called for by the
Contract Documents) or to safety precautions or programs
incident thereto. The review and approval of a separate
item as such will not indicate approval of the assembly in
which the item functions.
3. ENGINEER's review and approval of Shop
Drawings or Samples shall not relieve CONTRACTOR
from responsibility for any variation from the require-
ments of the Contract Documents unless CONTRACTOR
has in writing called ENGINEER's attention to each such
variation at the time of each submittal as required by
paragraph 6.17.D.3 and ENGINEER has given written
approval of each such variation by specific written
notation thereof incorporated in or accompanying the
Shop Drawing or Sample approval; nor will any approval
by ENGINEER relieve CONTRACTOR from
responsibility for complying with the requirements of
paragraph 6.17.D.1.
F. Resubmittal Procedures
1. CONTRACTOR shall make corrections required
by ENGINEER and shall return the required number of
corrected copies of Shop Drawings and submit as

operation by persons other than CONTRACTOR, Sub-
contractors, Suppliers, or any other individual or entity
for whom CONTRACTOR is responsible; or
2. normal wear and tear under normal usage.
B. CONTRACTOR's obligation to perform and
complete the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents shall be absolute. None of the following will
constitute an acceptance of Work that is not in accordance
with the Contract Documents or a release of
CONTRACTOR's obligation to perform the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents:
I. observations by ENGINEER;
2. recommendation by ENGINEER or payment by
OWNER of any progress or final payment;
3. the issuance of a certificate of Substantial
Completion by ENGINEER or any payment related
thereto by OWNER;
4. use or occupancy of the Work or any part thereof
by OWNER;

use resulting therefrom; and
2. is caused in whole or in part by any negligent act
or omission of CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, any
Supplier, or any individual or entity directly or indirectly
employed by any of them to perform any of the Work or
anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable,
regardless of whether or not caused in part by any
negligence or omission of an individual or entity indem-
nified hereunder or whether liability is imposed upon such
indemnified party by Laws and Regulations regardless of
the negligence of any such individual or entity.
B. In any and all claims against OWNER or ENGINEER
or any of their respective consultants, agents, officers,
directors, partners, or employees by any employee (or the
survivor or personal representative of such employee) of
CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, any Supplier, or any
individual or entity directly or indirectly employed by any of
them to perform any of the Work, or anyone for whose acts
any of them may be liable, the indemnification obligation
under paragraph 6.20.A shall not be limited in any way by
any limitation on the amount or type of damages,
compensation, or benefits payable by or for CONTRACTOR
or any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or
entity under workers' compensation acts, disability benefit
acts, or other employee benefit acts.
C. The indemnification obligations of CONTRACTOR
under paragraph 6.20.A shall not extend to the liability of
ENGINEER and ENGINEER's Consultants or to the
officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, and other
consultants and subcontractors of each and any of them
arising out of:
1. the preparation or approval of, or the failure to
prepare or approve, maps, Drawings, opinions, reports,
surveys, Change Orders, designs, or Specifications; or
'SI
2. giving directions or instructions, or failing to
give them, if that is the primary cause of the injury or
damage.

Contract Documents and will not be changed without written
consent of OWNER and ENGINEER.
9.02 Visits to Site
A. ENGINEER will make visits to the Site at intervals
appropriate to the various stages of construction as
ENGINEER deems necessary in order to observe as an
experienced and qualified design professional the progress
that has been made and the quality of the various aspects of
CONTRACTOR's executed Work. Based on information
obtained during such visits and observations, ENGINEER,
for the benefit of OWNER, will determine, in general, if the
Work is proceeding in accordance with the Contract
Documents. ENGINEER will not be required to make
exhaustive or continuous inspections on the Site to check the
quality or quantity of the Work. ENGINEER's efforts will
be directed toward providing for OWNER a greater degree
of confidence that the completed Work will conform
generally to the Contract Documents. On the basis of such
visits and observations, ENGINEER will keep OWNER
informed of the progress of the Work and will endeavor to
guard OWNER against defective Work.
B. ENGINEER's visits and observations are subject to
all the limitations on ENGINEER'S authority and
responsibility set forth in paragraph 9.10, and particularly,
but without limitation, during or as a result of ENGINEER's
visits or observations of CONTRACTOR's Work
ENGINEER will not supervise, direct, control, or have
authority over or be responsible for CONTRACTOR's
means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures of
construction, or the safety precautions and programs incident
thereto, or for any failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with
Laws and Regulations applicable to the performance of the
Work.
9.03 Project Representative
A. If OWNER and ENGINEER agree, ENGINEER will
furnish a Resident Project Representative to assist
ENGINEER in providing more extensive observation of the
Work. The responsibilities and authority and limitations
thereon of any such Resident Project Representative and
assistants will be as provided in paragraph 9.10 and in the
Supplementary Conditions. If OWNER designates another
1 00700-27
I
representative or agent to represent OWNER at the Site who
is not ENGINEER's Consultant, agent or employee, the
responsibilities and authority and limitations thereon of such
other individual or entity will be as provided in the Supple-
mentary Conditions.
9.04 Clarifications and Interpretations
A. ENGINEER will issue with reasonable promptness
such written clarifications or interpretations of the require-
ments of the Contract Documents as ENGINEER may deter-
mine necessary, which shall be consistent with the intent of
and reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents. Such
written clarifications and interpretations will be binding on
OWNER and CONTRACTOR. If OWNER and CON-
TRACTOR are unable to agree on entitlement to or on the
amount or extent, if any, of any adjustment in the Contract
Price or Contract Times, or both, that should be allowed as
a result of a written clarification or interpretation, a Claim
may be made therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05.
9.05 Authorized Variations in Work
A. ENGINEER may authorize minor variations in the
Work from the requirements of the Contract Documents
which do not involve an adjustment in the Contract Price or
the Contract Times and are compatible with the design
concept of the completed Project as a functioning whole as
indicated by the Contract Documents. These may be
accomplished by a Field Order and will be binding on
OWNER and also on CONTRACTOR, who shall perform
the Work involved promptly. If OWNER and CONTRAC-
TOR are unable to agree on entitlement to or on the amount
or extent, if any, of any adjustment in the Contract Price or
Contract Times, or both, as a result of a Field Order, a
Claim may be made therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05.
9.06 Rejecting Defective Work
A. ENGINEER will have authority to disapprove or
reject Work which ENGINEER believes to be defective, or
that ENGINEER believes will not produce a completed
Project that conforms to the Contract Documents or that will
prejudice the integrity of the design concept of the completed
Project as a functioning whole as indicated by the Contract
Documents. ENGINEER will also have authority to require
special inspection or testing of the Work as provided in
paragraph 13.04, whether or not the Work is fabricated,
installed, or completed.
9.07 Shop Drawings, Change Orders and Payments
A. In connection with ENGINEER's authority as to Shop
Drawings and Samples, see paragraph 6.17.
B. In connection with ENGINEER's authority as to
Change Orders, see Articles 10, 11, and 12.
C. In connection with ENGINEER's authority'as to
Applications for Payment, see Article 14.
9.08 Determinations for Unit Price Work
A. ENGINEER will determine the actual quantities and
classifications of Unit Price Work performed by
CONTRACTOR. ENGINEER will review with CON-
TRACTOR the ENGINEER's preliminary determinations on
such matters before rendering a written decision thereon (by
recommendation of an Application for Payment or
otherwise). ENGINEER's written decision thereon will be
final and binding (except as modified by ENGINEER to
reflect changed factual conditions or more accurate data)
upon OWNER and CONTRACTOR, subject to the
provisions of paragraph 10.05.
9.09 Decisions on Requirements of Contract Documents
and Acceptability of Work
A. ENGINEER will be the initial interpreter of the
requirements of the Contract Documents and judge of the
acceptability of the Work thereunder. Claims, disputes and
other matters relating to the acceptability of the Work, the
quantities and classifications of Unit Price Work, the
interpretation of the requirements of the Contract Documents
pertaining to the performance of the Work, and Claims
seeking changes in the Contract Price or Contract Times will
be referred initially to ENGINEER in writing, in accordance
with the provisions of paragraph 10.05, with a request for a
formal decision.
B. When functioning as interpreter and judge under this
paragraph 9.09, ENGINEER will not show partiality to
OWNER or CONTRACTOR and will not be liable in
connection with any interpretation or decision rendered in
good faith in such capacity. The rendering of a decision by
ENGINEER pursuant to this paragraph 9.09 with respect to
any such Claim, dispute, or other matter (except any which
have been waived by the making or acceptance of final
payment as provided in paragraph 14.07) will be a condition
precedent to any exercise by OWNER or CONTRACTOR of
such rights or remedies as either may otherwise have under
the Contract Documents or by Laws or Regulations in respect
of any such Claim, dispute, or other matter.
9.10 Limitations on ENGINEER's Authority and Respon-
sibilities
A. Neither ENGINEER's authority or responsibility
under this Article 9 or under any other provision of the
Contract Documents nor any decision made by ENGINEER
in good faith either to exercise or not exercise such authority

or responsibility or the undertaking, exercise, or performance
of any authority or responsibility by ENGINEER shall create,
impose, or give rise to any duty in contract, tort, or
otherwise owed by ENGINEER to CONTRACTOR, any
Subcontractor, any Supplier, any other individual or entity,
or to any surety for or employee or agent of any of them.
B. ENGINEER will not supervise, direct, control, or
have authority over or be responsible for CONTRACTOR's
means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures of
construction, or the safety precautions and programs incident
thereto, or for any failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with
Laws and Regulations applicable to the performance of the
Work. ENGINEER will not be responsible for
CONTRACTOR's failure to perform the Work in accordance
with the Contract Documents.
C. ENGINEER will not be responsible for the acts or
omissions of CONTRACTOR or of any Subcontractor, any
Supplier, or of any other individual or entity performing any
of the Work.
D. ENGINEER's review of the final Application for
Payment and accompanying documentation and all mainte-
nance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees,
Bonds, certificates of inspection, tests and approvals, and
other documentation required to be delivered by paragraph
14.07.A will on]" be to determine generally that their content
complies with the requirements of, and in the case of
certificates of inspections, tests, and approvals that the results
certified indicate compliance with, the Contract Documents.
E. The limitations upon authority and responsibility set
forth in this paragraph 9.10 shall also apply to ENGINEER's
Consultants, Resident Project Representative, and assistants.
ARTICLE 10 - CHANGES IN THE WORK; CLAIMS
10.01 Authorized Changes in the Work

A. Costs Included: The term Cost of the Work means
the sum of all costs necessarily incurred and paid by CON-
TRACTOR in the proper performance of the Work. When
the value of any Work covered by a Change Order or when
a Claim for an adjustment in Contract Price is determined on
the basis of Cost of the Work, the costs to be reimbursed to
CONTRACTOR will be only those additional or incremental
costs required because of the change in the Work or because

1. Payroll costs for employees in the direct employ
of CONTRACTOR in the performance of the Work
under schedules of job classifications agreed upon by
OWNER and CONTRACTOR. Such employees shall
include without limitation superintendents, foremen, and
other personnel employed full time at the Site. Payroll
costs for employees not employed full time on the Work
shall be apportioned on the basis of their time spent on
the Work. Payroll costs shall include, but not be limited
to, salaries and wages plus the cost of fringe benefits,
which shall include social security contributions, unem-
ployment, excise, and payroll taxes, workers'
compensation, health and retirement benefits, bonuses,
sick leave, vacation and holiday pay applicable thereto.

3. Payments made by CONTRACTOR to
Subcontractors for Work performed by Subcontractors.
If required by OWNER, CONTRACTOR shall obtain
competitive bids from subcontractors acceptable to
OWNER and CONTRACTOR and shall deliver such
bids to OWNER, who will then determine, with the
advice of ENGINEER, which bids, if any, will be
acceptable. If any subcontract provides that the
Subcontractor is to be paid on the basis of Cost of the
Work plus a fee, the Subcontractor's Cost of the Work
and fee shall be determined in the same manner as
CONTRACTOR's Cost of the Work and fee as provided

used but not consumed which remain the property of
CONTRACTOR.
c. Rentals of all construction equipment and
machinery, and the parts thereof whether rented
from CONTRACTOR or others in accordance with
rental agreements approved by OWNER with the
advice of ENGINEER, and the costs of
transportation, loading, unloading, assembly,

shall be in accordance with the terms of said rental
agreements. The rental of any such equipment, ma-
chinery, or parts shall cease when the use thereof is
no longer necessary for the Work.
Id. Sales, consumer, use, and other similar
taxes related to the Work, and for which CON-
TRACTOR is liable, imposed by Laws and Regu-
' lotions.

caused by damage to the Work, not compensated by
insurance or otherwise, sustained by
CONTRACTOR in connection with the perfor-
mance of the Work (except losses and damages
within the deductible amounts of property insurance
established in accordance with paragraph 5.06.D),
provided such losses and damages have resulted
from causes other than the negligence of
CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, or anyone
directly or indirectly employed by any of them or
for whose acts any of them may be liable. Such
losses shall include settlements made with the
written consent and approval of OWNER. No such
losses, damages, and expenses shall be included in
the Cost of the Work for the purpose of determining
CONTRACTOR's fee.

determine the value of a Change Order or of a
Claim, the cost of premiums for additional Bonds
and insurance required because of the changes in the
Work or caused by the event giving rise to the
Claim.
j. When all the Work is performed on the
basis of cost-plus, the costs of premiums for all
Bonds and insurance CONTRACTOR is required by
the Contract Documents to purchase and maintain.
B. Costs Excluded: The term Cost of the Work shall
not include any of the following items:
1. Payroll costs and other compensation of
CONTRACTOR's officers, executives, principals (of
partnerships and sole proprietorships), general manag-
ers, engineers, architects, estimators, attorneys, audi-
tors, accountants, purchasing and contracting agents,
expediters, timekeepers, clerks, and other personnel
employed by CONTRACTOR, whether at the Site or in
CONTRACTOR's principal or branch office for general
administration of the Work and not specifically included
in the agreed upon schedule of job classifications
referred to in paragraph 11.01.A.1 or specifically
covered by paragraph 11.01.A.4, all of which are to be
' 00700-31
considered administrative costs covered by the
CONTRACTOR's fee.
2. Expenses of CONTRACTOR's principal and
branch offices other than CONTRACTOR's office at the
Site.
3. Any part of CONTRACTOR's capital expenses,
including interest on CONTRACTOR's capital employed
for the Work and charges against CONTRACTOR for
delinquent payments.
4. Costs due to the negligence of CONTRACTOR,
any Subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly
employed by any of them or for whose acts any of them
may be liable, including but not limited to, the
correction of defective Work, disposal of materials or
equipment wrongly supplied, and making good any
damage to property.
5. Other overhead or general expense costs of any
kind and the costs of any item not specifically and
expressly included in paragraphs 11.01.A and 11.01.B.
C. CONTRACTOR's Fee: When all the Work is
performed on the basis of cost-plus, CONTRACTOR's fee
shall be determined as set forth in the Agreement. When the
value of any Work covered by a Change Order or when a
Claim for an adjustment in Contract Price is determined on
the basis of Cost of the Work, CONTRACTOR's fee shall be
determined as set forth in paragraph 12.01.C.
D. Documentation: Whenever the Cost of the Work for
any purpose is to be determined pursuant to paragraphs
11.OI.A and 11.01.B, CONTRACTOR will establish and
maintain records thereof in accordance with generally
accepted accounting practices and submit in a form
acceptable to ENGINEER an itemized cost breakdown
together with supporting data.
11.02 Cash Allowances
A. It is understood that CONTRACTOR has included
in the Contract Price all allowances so named in the Contract
Documents and shall cause the Work so covered to be
performed for such sums as may be acceptable to OWNER
and ENGINEER. CONTRACTOR agrees that:
1. the allowances include the cost to CONTRAC-
TOR (less any applicable trade discounts) of materials
and equipment required by the allowances to be
delivered at the Site, and all applicable taxes; and
2. CONTRACTOR's costs for unloading and
handling on the Site, labor, installation costs, overhead,
profit, and other expenses contemplated for the allow -
ances have been included in the Contract Price and not
in the allowances, and no demand for additional payment
on account of any of the foregoing will be valid.
B. Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order
will be issued as recommended by ENGINEER to reflect
actual amounts due CONTRACTOR on account of Work
covered by allowances, and the Contract Price shall be
correspondingly adjusted.
11.03 Unit Price Work
A. Where the Contract Documents provide that all or
part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work, initially the
Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price
Work an amount equal to the sum of the unit price for each
separately identified item of Unit Price Work times the
estimated quantity of each item as indicated in the Agree-
ment. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work
are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of
comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price.
Determinations of the actual quantities and classifications of
Unit Price Work performed by CONTRACTOR will be
made by ENGINEER subject to the provisions of paragraph
9.08.
B. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount
considered by CONTRACTOR to be adequate to cover
CONTRACTOR's overhead and profit for each separately
identified item.
C. OWNER or CONTRACTOR may make a Claim for
an adjustment in the Contract Price in accordance with
paragraph 10.05 if:
1. the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work
performed by CONTRACTOR differs materially and
significantly from the estimated quantity of such item
indicated in the Agreement; and
2. there is no corresponding adjustment with
respect any other item of Work; and
3. if CONTRACTOR believes that
CONTRACTOR is entitled to an increase in Contract
Price as a result of having incurred additional expense or
OWNER believes that OWNER is entitled to a decrease
in Contract Price and the parties are unable to agree as
to the amount of any such increase or decrease.

ARTICLE 12 - CHANGE OF CONTRACT PRICE;
CHANGE OF CONTRACT TIMES
12.01 Change of Contract Price
A. The Contract Price may only be changed by a
Change Order or by a Written Amendment. Any Claim for
an adjustment in the Contract Price shall be based on written
notice submitted by the party making the Claim to the
ENGINEER and the other party to the Contract in accor-
dance with the provisions of paragraph 10.05.
B. The value of any Work covered by a Change Order
or of any Claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price will
be determined as follows:
1. where the Work involved is covered by unit
prices contained in the Contract Documents, by applica-
tion of such unit prices to the quantities of the items
involved (subject to the provisions of paragraph 11.03 );
or
2. where the Work involved is not covered by unit
prices contained in the Contract Documents, by a
mutually agreed lump sum (which may include an
allowance for overhead and profit not necessarily in
accordance with paragraph 12.01.C.2); or
3. where the Work involved is not covered by unit
prices contained in the Contract Documents and agree-
ment to a lump sum is not reached under paragraph
12.01.B.2, on the basis of the Cost of the Work
(determined as provided in paragraph 11.01) plus a
CONTRACTOR's fee for overhead and profit (deter-
mined as provided in paragraph 12.01.C).
C. CONTRACTOR's Fee: The CONTRACTOR's fee
for overhead and profit shall be determined as follows:
1. a mutually acceptable fixed fee; or
2. if a fixed fee is not agreed upon, then a fee
based on the following percentages of the various
portions of the Cost of the Work:
' a. for costs incurred under paragraphs
11.01.A.1 and 11.01.A.2, the CONTRACTOR's
fee shall be 15 percent;
I
I
b. for costs incurred under paragraph
11.01.A.3, the CONTRACTOR's fee shall be five
percent;
c. where one or more tiers of subcontracts are
on the basis of Cost of the Work plus a fee and no
fixed fee is agreed upon, the intent of paragraph
12.01.C.2.a is that the Subcontractor who actually
performs the Work, at whatever tier, will be paid
a fee of 15 percent of the costs incurred by such
Subcontractor under paragraphs 11.01.A.1 and
11.01.A.2 and that any higher tier Subcontractor
and CONTRACTOR will each be paid a fee of five
percent of the amount paid to the next lower tier
Subcontractor;
d. no fee shall be payable on the basis of costs
itemized under paragraphs 11.01.A.4, I1.01.A.5,
and 11.01.B;
e. the amount of credit to be allowed by
CONTRACTOR to OWNER for any change which
results in a net decrease in cost will be the amount
of the actual net decrease in cost plus a deduction in
CONTRACTOR's fee by an amount equal to five
percent of such net decrease; and
f. when both additions and credits are in-
volved in any one change, the adjustment in
CONTRACTOR's fee shall be computed on the
basis of the net change in accordance with para-
graphs 12.01.C.2.a through 12.01.C.2.e, inclu-
sive.
12.02 Change of Contract Times
A. The Contract Times (or Milestones) may only be
changed by a Change Order or by a Written Amendment.
Any Claim for an adjustment in the Contract Times (or
Milestones) shall be based on written notice submitted by the
party making the claim to the ENGINEER and the other
party to the Contract in accordance with the provisions of
paragraph 10.05.
B. Any adjustment of the Contract Times (or
Milestones) covered by a Change Order or of any Claim for
an adjustment in the Contract Times (or Milestones) will be
determined in accordance with the provisions of this
Article 12.
12.03 Delays Beyond CONTRACTOR's Control
A. Where CONTRACTOR is prevented from
completing any part of the Work within the Contract Times
(or Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of
CONTRACTOR, the Contract Times (or Milestones) will be
extended in an amount equal to the time lost due to such
delay if a Claim is made therefor as provided in paragraph
12.02.A. Delays beyond the control of CONTRACTOR
shall include, but not be limited to, acts or neglect by
OWNER, acts or neglect of utility owners or other
contractors performing other work as contemplated by
1 00700-33
Article 7, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather
conditions, or acts of God.
12.04 Delays Within CONTRACTOR'S Control
A. The Contract Times (or Milestones) will not be
extended due to delays within the control of
CONTRACTOR. Delays attributable to and within the
control of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be
delays within the control of CONTRACTOR.
12.05 Delays Beyond OWNER's and CONTRACTOR'S
Control
A. Where CONTRACTOR is prevented from complet-
ing any part of the Work within the Contract Times (or
Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of both OWNER
and CONTRACTOR, an extension of the Contract Times (or
Milestones) in an amount equal to the time lost due to such
delay shall be CONTRACTOR's sole and exclusive remedy
for such delay.
12.06 Delay Damages
A. In no event shall OWNER or ENGINEER be liable
to CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, any Supplier, or any
other person or organization, or to any surety for or
employee or agent of any of them, for damages arising out of
or resulting from:
1. delays caused by or within the control of CON-
TRACTOR; or
2. delays beyond the control of both OWNER and
CONTRACTOR including but not limited to fires,
floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, acts of
God, or acts or neglect by utility owners or other
contractors performing other work as contemplated by
Article 7.
B. Nothing in this paragraph 12.06 bars a change in
Contract Price pursuant to this Article 12 to compensate
CONTRACTOR due to delay, interference, or disruption
directly attributable to actions or inactions of OWNER or
anyone for whom OWNER is responsible.
ARTICLE 13 - TESTS AND INSPECTIONS;
CORRECTION, REMOVAL OR ACCEPTANCE OF
DEFECTIVE WORK

other representatives and personnel of OWNER, independent
testing laboratories, and governmental agencies with
jurisdictional interests will have access to the Site and the
Work at reasonable times for their observation, inspecting,
and testing. CONTRACTOR shall provide them proper and
safe conditions for such access and advise them of
CONTRACTOR's Site safety procedures and programs so
that they may comply therewith as applicable.
13.03 Tests and Inspections
A. CONTRACTOR shall give ENGINEER timely
notice of readiness of the Work for all required inspections,
tests, or approvals and shall cooperate with inspection and
testing personnel to facilitate required inspections or tests.
B. OWNER shall employ and pay for the services of an
independent testing laboratory to perform all inspections,
tests, or approvals required by the Contract Documents
except:
1. for inspections, tests, or approvals covered by
paragraphs 13.03.C and 13.03.D below;
2. that costs incurred in connection with tests or
inspections conducted pursuant to paragraph 13.04.B
shall be paid as provided in said paragraph 13.04.B; and
3. as otherwise specifically provided in the Con-
tract Documents.
C. If Laws or Regulations of any public body having
jurisdiction require any Work (or part thereof) specifically to
be inspected, tested, or approved by an employee or other
representative of such public body, CONTRACTOR shall
assume full responsibility for arranging and obtaining such
inspections, tests, or approvals, pay all costs in connection
therewith, and furnish ENGINEER the required certificates
of inspection or approval.
D. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for arranging
and obtaining and shall pay all costs in connection with any
inspections, tests, or approvals required for OWNER's and
ENGINEER's acceptance of materials or equipment to be
incorporated in the Work; or acceptance of materials, mix
designs, or• equipment submitted for approval prior to
CONTRACTOR's purchase thereof for incorporation in the
Work. Such inspections, tests, or approvals shall be
performed by organizations acceptable to OWNER and
ENGINEER.

E. If any Work (or the work of others) that is to be
inspected, tested, or approved is covered by CONTRACTOR
without written concurrence of ENGINEER, it must, if
requested by ENGINEER, be uncovered for observation.
F. Uncovering Work as provided in paragraph 13.03.E
shall be at CONTRACTOR's expense unless CON-
TRACTOR. has given ENGINEER timely notice of
CONTRACTOR's intention to cover the same and ENGI-
NEER has not acted with reasonable promptness in response
to such notice.
13.04 Uncovering Work
A. If any Work is covered contrary to the written
request of ENGINEER, it must, if requested by ENGINEER,
be uncovered for ENGINEER's observation and replaced at
CONTRACTOR's expense.
B. If ENGINEER considers it necessary or advisable
that covered Work be observed by ENGINEER or inspected
or tested by others, CONTRACTOR, at ENGINEER's
request, shall uncover, expose, or otherwise make available
for observation, inspection, or testing as ENGINEER may
require, that portion of the Work in question, furnishing all
necessary labor, material, and equipment. If it is found that
such Work is defective, CONTRACTOR shall pay all
Claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited
to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and
other professionals and all court or arbitration or other
dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to such
uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection, and testing,
and of satisfactory replacement or reconstruction (including
but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work
of others); and OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate
decrease in the Contract Price. If the parties are unable to
agree as to the amount thereof, OWNER may make a Claim
therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05. If, however, such
Work is not found to be defective, CONTRACTOR shall be
allowed an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of
the Contract Times (or Milestones), or both, directly attribut-
able to such uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection,
testing, replacement, and reconstruction. If the parties are
unable to agree as to the amount or extent thereof,
CONTRACTOR may make a Claim therefor as provided in
paragraph 10.05.
13.05 OWNER May Stop the Work
A. If the Work is defective, or CONTRACTOR fails to
supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials or
equipment, or fails to perform the Work in such a way that
the completed Work will conform to the Contract
Documents, OWNER may order CONTRACTOR to stop the
Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order
has been eliminated; however, this right of OWNER to stop
the Work shall not give rise to any duty on the part of
OWNER to exercise this right for the benefit of
CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, any Supplier, any other
individual or entity, or any surety for, or employee or agent
of any of them.
13.06 Correction or Removal of Defective Work
A. CONTRACTOR shall correct all defective Work,
whether or not fabricated, installed, or completed, or, if the
Work has been rejected by ENGINEER, remove it from the
Project and replace it with Work that is not defective.
CONTRACTOR shall pay all Claims, costs, losses, and
damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of
engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and
all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs)
arising out of or relating to such correction or removal
(including but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement
of work of others).
13.07 Correction Period
A. If within one year after the date of Substantial
Completion or such longer period of time as may be
prescribed by Laws or Regulations or by the terms of any
applicable special guarantee required by the Contract
Documents or by any specific provision of the Contract
Documents, any Work is found to be defective, or if the
repair of any damages to the land or areas made available for
CONTRACTOR's use by OWNER or permitted by Laws and
Regulations as contemplated in paragraph 6.11.A is found to
be defective, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without cost
to OWNER and in accordance with OWNER's written
instructions: (i) repair such defective land or areas, or (ii)
correct such defective Work or, if the defective Work has
been rejected by OWNER, remove it from the Project and
replace it with Work that is not defective, and (iii) satisfac-
torily correct or repair or remove and replace any damage to
other Work, to the work of others or other land or areas
resulting therefrom. If CONTRACTOR does not promptly
comply with the terms of such instructions, or in an
emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or
damage, OWNER may have the defective Work corrected or
repaired or may have the rejected Work removed and
replaced, and all Claims, costs, losses, and damages
(including but not limited to all fees and charges of
engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and
all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs)
arising out of or relating to such correction or repair or such
removal and replacement (including but not limited to all
costs of repair or replacement of work of others) will be paid
by CONTRACTOR.
B. In special circumstances where a particular item of
equipment is placed in continuous service before Substantial
Completion of all the Work, the correction period for that
1 00700-35
item may start to run from an earlier date if so provided in
the Specifications or by Written Amendment.
C. Where defective Work (and damage to other Work
resulting therefrom) has been corrected or removed and
replaced under this paragraph 13.07, the correction period
hereunder with respect to such Work will be extended for an
additional period of one year after such correction or removal
and replacement has been satisfactorily completed.
D. CONTRACTOR's obligations under this paragraph
13.07 are in addition to any other obligation or warranty.
The provisions of this paragraph 13.07 shall not be construed
as a substitute for or a waiver of the provisions of any
applicable statute of limitation or repose.
13.08 Acceptance of Defective Work
A. If, instead of requiring correction or removal and
replacement of defective Work, OWNER (and, prior to
ENGINEER's recommendation of final payment,
ENGINEER) prefers to accept it, OWNER may do so.
CONTRACTOR shall pay all Claims, costs, losses, and
damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of
engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and
all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs)
attributable to OWNER's evaluation of and determination to
accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved by
ENGINEER as to reasonableness) and the diminished value
of the Work to the extent not otherwise paid by
CONTRACTOR pursuant to this sentence. If any such
acceptance occurs prior to ENGINEER's recommendation of
final payment, a Change Order will be issued incorporating
the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with
respect to the Work, and OWNER shall be entitled to an
appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, reflecting the
diminished value of Work so accepted. If the parties are
unable to agree as to the amount thereof, OWNER may make
a Claim therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05. If the
acceptance occurs after such recommendation, an appropriate
amount will be paid by CONTRACTOR to OWNER.
13.09 OWNER May Correct Defective Work
A. If CONTRACTOR fails within a reasonable time
after written notice from ENGINEER to correct defective
Work or to remove and replace rejected Work as required by
ENGINEER in accordance with paragraph 13.06.A, or if
CONTRACTOR fails to perform the Work in accordance
with the Contract Documents, or if CONTRACTOR fails to
comply with any other provision of the Contract Documents,
OWNER may, after seven days written notice to
CONTRACTOR, correct and remedy any such deficiency.
B. In
exercising
the rights and
remedies under
this
paragraph,
OWNER
shall proceed
expeditiously.
In
connection with such corrective and remedial action,
OWNER may exclude CONTRACTOR from all or part of
the Site, take possession of all or part of the Work and
suspend CONTRACTOR's services related thereto, take
possession of CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, con-
struction equipment and machinery at the Site, and incorpo-
rate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the
Site or for which OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but
which are stored elsewhere. CONTRACTOR shall allow
OWNER, OWNER's representatives, agents and employees,
OWNER's other contractors, and ENGINEER and
ENGINEER's Consultants access to the Site to enable
OWNER to exercise the rights and remedies under this
paragraph.
C. All Claims, costs, losses, and damages (including
but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or
arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) incurred or
sustained by OWNER in exercising the rights and remedies
under this paragraph 13.09 will be charged against CON-
TRACTOR, and a Change Order will be issued incorporating
the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with
respect to the Work; and OWNER shall be entitled to an
appropriate decrease in the Contract Price. If the parties are
unable to agree as to the amount of the adjustment, OWNER
may make a Claim therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05.
Such claims, costs, losses and damages will include but not
be limited to all costs of repair, or replacement of work of
others destroyed or damaged by correction, removal, or
replacement of CONTRACTOR's defective Work.
D. CONTRACTOR shall not be allowed an extension
of the Contract Times (or Milestones) because of any delay
in the performance of the Work attributable to the exercise by
OWNER of OWNER's rights and remedies under this
paragraph 13.09.
ARTICLE 14 - PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND
COMPLETION
14.01 Schedule of Values
A. The schedule of values established as provided in
paragraph 2.07.A will serve as the basis for progress
payments and will be incorporated into a form of Application
for Payment acceptable to ENGINEER. Progress payments
on account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number
of units completed.

14.02 Progress Payments
A. Applications for Payments
1. At least 20 days before the date established for
each progress payment (but not more often than once a
month), CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER
for review an Application for Payment filled out and
signed by CONTRACTOR covering the Work
completed as of the date of the Application and
accompanied by such supporting documentation as is
required by the Contract Documents. If payment is
requested on the basis of materials and equipment not
incorporated in the Work but delivered and suitably
stored at the Site or at another location agreed to in
writing, the Application for Payment shall also be
accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice, or other docu-
mentation warranting that OWNER has received the
materials and equipment free and clear of all Liens and
evidence that the materials and equipment are covered
by appropriate property insurance or other arrangements
to protect OWNER's interest therein, all of which must
be satisfactory to OWNER.
2. Beginning with the second Application for
Payment, each Application shall include an affidavit of
CONTRACTOR stating that all previous progress
payments received on account of the Work have been
applied on account to discharge CONTRACTOR's
legitimate obligations associated with prior Applications
for Payment.
3.
The amount
of retainage with
respect to pro-
gress
payments will
be as stipulated in
the Agreement.
B. Review of Applications
1. ENGINEER will, within 10 days after receipt of
each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing
a recommendation of payment and present the
Application to OWNER or return the Application to
CONTRACTOR indicating in writing ENGINEER's
reasons for refusing to recommend payment. In the
latter case, CONTRACTOR may make the necessary
corrections and resubmit the Application.
2. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment
requested in an Application for Payment will constitute
a representation by ENGINEER to OWNER, based on
ENGINEER's observations on the Site of the executed
Work as an experienced and qualified design profession-
al and on ENGINEER's review of the Application for
Payment and the accompanying data and schedules, that
to the best of ENGINEER's knowledge, information and
belief:
a. the Work has progressed to the point
indicated;
b. the quality of the Work is generally in
accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to
an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole
prior to or upon Substantial Completion, to the
results of any subsequent tests called for in the
Contract Documents, to a final determination of
quantities and classifications for Unit Price Work
under paragraph 9.08, and to any other
qualifications stated in the recommendation); and
c. the conditions precedent to
CONTRACTOR's being entitled to such payment
appear to have been fulfilled in so far as it is
ENGINEER's responsibility to observe the Work.
3. By recommending any such payment ENGI-
NEER will not thereby be deemed to have represented
that: (i) inspections made to check the quality or the
quantity of the Work as it has been performed have been
exhaustive, extended to every aspect of the Work in
progress, or involved detailed inspections of the Work
beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to
ENGINEER in the Contract Documents; or (ii) that
there may not be other matters or issues between the
parties that might entitle CONTRACTOR to be paid
additionally by OWNER or entitle OWNER to withhold
payment to CONTRACTOR.
4. Neither ENGINEER's review of
CONTRACTOR's Work for the purposes of recom-
mending payments nor ENGINEER'S recommendation
of any payment, including final payment, will impose
responsibility on ENGINEER to supervise, direct, or
control the Work or for the means, methods, techniques,
sequences, or procedures of construction, or the safety
precautions and programs incident thereto, or for CON-
TRACTOR's failure to comply with Laws and Regu-
lations applicable to CONTRACTOR's performance of
the Work. Additionally, said review or recommendation
will not impose responsibility on ENGINEER to make
any examination to ascertain how or for what purposes
CONTRACTOR has used the moneys paid on account of
the Contract Price, or to determine that title to any of
the Work, materials, or equipment has passed to
OWNER free and clear of any Liens.
5. ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the
whole or any part of any payment if, in ENGINEER's
opinion, it would be incorrect to make the representa-
tions to OWNER referred to in paragraph 14.02.B.2.
ENGINEER may also refuse to recommend any such
payment or, because of subsequently discovered
evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests,
11
00700-37
revise or revoke any such payment recommendation
previously made, to such extent as may be necessary in
ENGINEER's opinion to protect OWNER from loss
because:
a. the Work is defective, or completed Work
has been damaged, requiring correction or replace-
ment;
b. the Contract Price has been reduced by
Written Amendment or Change Orders;
c. OWNER has been required to correct
defective Work or complete Work in accordance
with paragraph 13.09; or
d. ENGINEER has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of any of the events enumerated in para-
graph 15.02.A.
C. Payment Becomes Due
1. Ten days after presentation of the Application
for Payment to OWNER with ENGINEER's recom-
mendation, the amount recommended will (subject to the
provisions of paragraph 14.02.D) become due, and when
due will be paid by OWNER to CONTRACTOR.
D. Reduction in Payment
1. OWNER may refuse to make payment of the
full amount recommended by ENGINEER because:
a. claims have been made against OWNER on
account of CONTRACTOR's performance or fur-
nishing of the Work;
b. Liens have been filed in connection with the
Work, except where CONTRACTOR has delivered
a specific Bond satisfactory to OWNER to secure
the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens;
c. there are other items entitling OWNER to
a set-off against the amount recommended; or
d. OWNER has actual knowledge of the occur-
rence of any of the events enumerated in paragraphs
14.02.B.5.a through 14.02.B.5.c or paragraph
15.02. A.
2. If OWNER refuses to make payment of the full
amount recommended by ENGINEER, OWNER must
give CONTRACTOR immediate written notice (with a
copy to ENGINEER) stating the reasons for such action
and promptly pay CONTRACTOR any amount
remaining after deduction of the amount so withheld.
OWNER shall promptly pay CONTRACTOR the
amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed to
by OWNER and CONTRACTOR, when CONTRAC-
TOR corrects to OWNER's satisfaction the reasons for
such action.
3. If it is subsequently determined that OWNER's
refusal of payment was not justified, the amount
wrongfully withheld shall be treated as an amount due as
determined by paragraph 14.02.C.1.
14.03 CONTRACTOR's Warranty of Title
A. CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees that title
to all Work, materials, and equipment covered by any
Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Project
or not, will pass to OWNER no later than the time of
payment free and clear of all Liens.
14.04 Substantial Completion
A. When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work
ready for its intended use CONTRACTOR shall notify
OWNER and ENGINEER in writing that the entire Work is
substantially complete (except for items specifically listed by
CONTRACTOR as incomplete) and request that ENGINEER
issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. Promptly
thereafter, OWNER, CONTRACTOR, and ENGINEER
shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status
of completion. If ENGINEER does not consider the Work
substantially complete, ENGINEER will notify
CONTRACTOR in writing giving the reasons therefor. If
ENGINEER considers the Work substantially complete,
ENGINEER will prepare and deliver to OWNER a tentative
certificate of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date
of Substantial Completion. There shall be attached to the
certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or
corrected before final payment. OWNER shall have seven
days after receipt of the tentative certificate during which to
make written objection to ENGINEER as to any provisions
of the certificate or attached list. If, after considering such
objections, ENGINEER concludes that the Work is not
substantially complete, ENGINEER will within 14 days after
submission of the tentative certificate to OWNER notify
CONTRACTOR in writing, stating the reasons therefor. If,
after consideration of OWNER's objections, ENGINEER
considers the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER will
within said 14 days execute and deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of Substantial
Completion (with a revised tentative list of items to be
completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the
tentative certificate as ENGINEER believes justified after
consideration of any objections from OWNER. At the time
of delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial Comple-
tion ENGINEER will deliver to OWNER and CONTRAC-
TOR a written recommendation as to division of responsibili-
1

ties pending final payment between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety,
and protection of the Work, maintenance, heat, utilities,
insurance, and warranties and guarantees. Unless OWNER
and CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so
inform ENGINEER in writing prior to ENGINEER's issuing
the definitive certificate of Substantial Completion,
ENGINEER's aforesaid recommendation will be binding on
OWNER and CONTRACTOR until final payment.
B. OWNER shall have the right to exclude
CONTRACTOR from the Site after the date of Substantial
Completion, but OWNER shall allow CONTRACTOR
reasonable access to complete or correct items on the
tentative list.
14.05 Partial Utilization
A. Use by OWNER at OWNER's option of any
substantially completed part of the Work which has
specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or
which OWNER, ENGINEER, and CONTRACTOR agree
constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the
Work that can be used by OWNER for its intended purpose
without significant interference with CONTRACTOR's
performance of the remainder of the Work, may be
accomplished prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work
subject to the following conditions.
1. OWNER at any time may request CON-
TRACTOR in writing to permit OWNER to use any
such part of the Work which OWNER believes to be
ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If
CONTRACTOR agrees that such part of the Work is
substantially complete, CONTRACTOR will certify to
OWNER and ENGINEER that such part of the Work is
substantially complete and request ENGINEER to issue
a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of
the Work. CONTRACTOR at any time may notify
OWNER and ENGINEER in writing that
CONTRACTOR considers any such part of the Work
ready for its intended use and substantially complete and
request ENGINEER to issue a certificate of Substantial
Completion for that part of the Work. Within a
reasonable time after either such request, OWNER,
CONTRACTOR, and ENGINEER shall make an
inspection of that pan of the Work to determine its status
of completion. If ENGINEER does not consider that
part of the Work to be substantially complete,
ENGINEER will notify OWNER and CONTRACTOR
in writing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER
considers that part of the Work to be substantially
complete, the provisions of paragraph 14.04 will apply
with respect to certification of Substantial Completion of
that part of the Work and the division of responsibility
in respect thereof and access thereto.
2. No occupancy or separate operation of part of
the Work may occur prior to compliance with the
requirements of paragraph 5.10 regarding property
insurance.
14.06 Final Inspection
A. Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the
entire Work or an agreed portion thereof is complete,
ENGINEER will promptly make a final inspection with
OWNER and CONTRACTOR and will notify CON-
TRACTOR in writing of all particulars in which this
inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective.
CONTRACTOR shall immediately take such measures as are
necessary to complete such Work or remedy such
deficiencies.
14.07 Final Payment
A. Application for Payment
1. After CONTRACTOR has, in the opinion of
ENGINEER, satisfactorily completed all corrections
identified during the final inspection and has delivered,
in accordance with the Contract Documents, all main-
tenance and operating instructions, schedules, guaran-
tees, Bonds, certificates or other evidence of insurance
certificates of inspection, marked -up record documents
(as provided in paragraph 6.12), and other documents,
CONTRACTOR may make application for final
payment following the procedure for progress payments.
2. The final Application for Payment shall be
accompanied (except as previously delivered) by: (i) all
documentation called for in the Contract Documents,
including but not limited to the evidence of insurance
required by subparagraph 5.04.B.7; (ii) consent of the
surety, if any, to final payment; and (iii) complete and
legally effective releases or waivers (satisfactory to
OWNER) of all Lien rights arising out of or Liens filed
in connection with the Work.
3. In lieu of the releases or waivers of Liens
specified in paragraph 14.07.A.2 and as approved by
OWNER, CONTRACTOR may furnish receipts or
releases in full and an affidavit of CONTRACTOR that:
(i) the releases and receipts include all labor, services,
material, and equipment for which a Lien could be filed;
and (ii) all payrolls, material and equipment bills, and
other indebtedness connected with the Work for which
OWNER or OWNER's property might in any way be
responsible have been paid or otherwise satisfied. If any
Subcontractor or Supplier fails to furnish such a release
or receipt in full, CONTRACTOR may furnish a Bond
or other collateral satisfactory to OWNER to indemnify
OWNER against any Lien.
1 00700-39
Ii
B. Review of Application and Acceptance
1. If, on the basis of ENGINEER's observation of
the Work during construction and final inspection, and
ENGINEER's review of the final Application for
Payment and accompanying documentation as required
by the Contract Documents, ENGINEER is satisfied that
the Work has been completed and CONTRACTOR's
other obligations under the Contract Documents have
been fulfilled, ENGINEER will, within ten days after
receipt of the final Application for Payment, indicate in
writing ENGINEER's recommendation of payment and
present the Application for Payment to OWNER for pay-
ment. At the same time ENGINEER will also give
written notice to OWNER and CONTRACTOR that the
Work is acceptable subject to the provisions of
paragraph 14.09. Otherwise, ENGINEER will return
the Application for Payment to CONTRACTOR,
indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to
recommend final payment, in which case CON-
TRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application for Payment.
C. Payment Becomes Due
1. Thirty days after the presentation to OWNER of
the Application for Payment and accompanying docu-
mentation, the amount recommended by ENGINEER
will become due and, when due, will be paid by OWN-
ER to CONTRACTOR.
14.08 Final Completion Delayed
A. If, through no fault of CONTRACTOR, final
completion of the Work is significantly delayed, and if
ENGINEER so confirms, OWNER shall, upon receipt of
CONTRACTOR's final Application for Payment and
recommendation of ENGINEER, and without terminating the
Agreement, make payment of the balance due for that portion
of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining
balance to be held by OWNER for Work not fully completed
or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the
Agreement, and if Bonds have been furnished as required in
paragraph 5.01, the written consent of the surety to the
payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully
completed and accepted shall be• submitted by CON-
TRACTOR to ENGINEER with the Application for such
payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and
conditions governing final payment, except that it. shall not
constitute a waiver of Claims.
14.09 Waiver of Claims
A. The making and acceptance of final payment will
constitute:
1. a waiver of all Claims by OWNER against
CONTRACTOR, except Claims arising from unsettled
Liens, from defective Work appearing after final
inspection pursuant to paragraph 14.06, from failure to
comply with the Contract Documents or the terms of any
special guarantees specified therein, or from
CONTRACTOR's continuing obligations under the
Contract Documents; and
2. a waiver of all Claims by CONTRACTOR
against OWNER other than those previously made in
writing which are still unsettled.
ARTICLE 15 - SUSPENSION OF WORK AND
TERMINATION
15.01 OWNER May Suspend Work
A. At any time and without cause, OWNER may
suspend the Work or any portion thereof for a period of not
more than 90 consecutive days by notice in writing to CON-
TRACTOR and ENGINEER which will fix the date on which
Work will be resumed. CONTRACTOR shall resume the
Work on the date so fixed. CONTRACTOR shall be allowed
an adjustment in the Contract Price or an extension of the
Contract Times, or both, directly attributable to any such
suspension if CONTRACTOR makes a Claim therefor as
provided in paragraph 10.05.
15.02 OWNER May Terminate for Cause
A. The occurrence of any one or more of the following
events will justify termination for cause:
1. CONTRACTOR's persistent failure to perform
the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents
(including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient
skilled workers or suitable materials or equipment or
failure to adhere to the progress schedule established
under paragraph 2.07 as adjusted from time to time
pursuant to paragraph 6.04);
2. CONTRACTOR's disregard of Laws or
Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction;
3. CONTRACTOR's disregard of the authority of
ENGINEER; or
4. CONTRACTOR's violation in any substantial
way of any provisions of the Contract Documents.
B. If one or more of the events identified in paragraph
15.02.A occur, OWNER may, after giving CONTRACTOR
(and the surety, if any) seven days written notice, terminate
I
!J
I
I
I

the services of CONTRACTOR, exclude CONTRACTOR
from the Site, and take possession of the Work and of all
CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, construction equipment,
and machinery at the Site, and use the same to the full extent
they could be used by CONTRACTOR (without liability to
CONTRACTOR for trespass or conversion), incorporate in
the Work all materials and equipment stored at the Site or for
which OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but which are
stored elsewhere, and finish the Work as OWNER may deem
expedient. In such case. CONTRACTOR shall not be
entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is
finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds
all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not
limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects,
attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration
or other dispute resolution costs) sustained by OWNER
arising out of or relating to completing the Work, such excess
will be paid to CONTRACTOR. If such claims, costs,
losses, and damages exceed such unpaid balance,
CONTRACTOR shall pay the difference to OWNER. Such
claims, costs, losses, and damages incurred by OWNER will
be reviewed by ENGINEER as to their reasonableness and,
when so approved by ENGINEER, incorporated in a Change
Order. When exercising any rights or remedies under this
paragraph OWNER shall not be required to obtain the lowest
price for the Work performed.
C. Where CONTRACTOR's services have been so
terminated by OWNER, the termination will not affect any
rights or remedies of OWNER against CONTRACTOR then
existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or
payment of moneys due CONTRACTOR by OWNER will
not release CONTRACTOR from liability.
15.03 OWNER May Terminate For Convenience
A. Upon seven days written notice to CONTRACTOR
and ENGINEER, OWNER may, without cause and without
prejudice to any other right or remedy of OWNER, elect to
terminate the Contract. In such case, CONTRACTOR shall
be paid (without duplication of any items):
1. for completed and acceptable Work executed in
accordance with the Contract Documents prior to the
effective date of termination, including fair and
reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such Work;
2. for expenses sustained prior to the effective date
of termination in performing services and furnishing
labor, materials, or equipment as required by the
Contract Documents in connection with uncompleted
Work, plus fair and reasonable sums for overhead and

Benching (Benching system) means
a method of protecting employees
from cave-ins by excavating the sides
of an excavation to form one or a
series of horizontal levels or steps,
usually with vertical or near -vertical
surfaces between levels.
Cave-in means the separation of a
mass of soil or rock material from the
side of an excavation, or the loss of
soil from under a trench shield or sup-
port system, and its sudden movement
into the excavation, either by falling
or sliding, in sufficient quantity so
that it could entrap, bury, or other-
wise injure and immobilize a person.
Competent person means one who is
capable of identifying existing and
predictable hazards in the surround-
ings, or working conditions which are
unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous
to employees, and who has authoriza-
tion to take prompt corrective meas-
ures to eliminate them.
Cross braces mean the horizontal
members of a shoring system installed
perpendicular to the sides of the exca-
vation, the ends of which bear against
either uprights or wales.
Excavation means any man-made
cut, cavity, trench, or depression in an
earth surface, formed by earth remov-
al.
Faces or sides means the vertical or
inclined earth surfaces formed as a
result of excavation work.
Failure means the breakage, dis-
placement, or permanent deformation
of a structural member or connection
so as to reduce its structural integrity
and its supportive capabilities. - -
Hazardous atmosphere means an at-
mosphere which by reason of being ex-
plosive, flammable, poisonous, corro-
sive, oxidizing, irritating, oxygen defi-
cient, toxic, or otherwise harmful, may
cause death, illness, or injury.
Kickout means the accidental re-
lease or failure of a cross brace.
Protective system means a method of
protecting employees from cave-ins,
from material that could fall or roll
from an excavation face or into an ex-
cavation, or from the collapse of adja-
cent structures. Protective systems in-
clude support : systems, sloping and
benching systems, shield systems, and
other systems that provide the neces-
sary protection.
Ramp means an inclined walking or
working surface that is used to gain
access to one point from another, and
is constructed from earth or from
structural materials such as steel or,
wood. -
Registered Professional Engineer
means a person who is registered as a
professional engineer in the state
where the work is to be performed.
However, a professional engineer, reg-
istered in any state is deemed to be a
"registered professional engineer"
within the meaning of this standard
when approving designs for "manufac-
tured protective systems" or "tabulat-
ed data" to be used in interstate com-
merce.
Sheeting means the members of a
shoring system that retain the earth
in -position and in turn are supported
by other members of the shoring
system.
Shield (Shield system) means a
structure that is able to withstand the
forces imposed on it by a cave-in and
thereby protect employees within the
structure. Shields can be permanent
structures or can be designed to be
portable and moved along as work pro-
gresses. Additionally, shields can be
either premanufactured or job -built in
accordance with § 1926.652 (c)(3) or
(c)(4). Shields used. in trenches are
usually referred to as "trench boxes"
or "trench shields."
Shoring (Shoring system) means a
structure such as a metal hydraulic,
mechanical or timber shoring system
that supports the sides of an excava-
tion and which is designed to- prevent
cave-ins.
Sides. See "Faces."
Sloping (Sloping system) means a
method of protecting employees from
cave-ins by excavating to form sides of
an excavation that are inclined away
from the excavation so as to prevent
cave-ins. The angle of incline required
to prevent a cave-in varies with differ-
ences in such factors as the soil type,
environmental conditions of exposure,
and application of surcharge loads.
Stable rock means natural solid min-
eral material that can be excavated
with vertical sides and will remain
intact while exposed. Unstable rock is
considered to be stable when the rock
material on the side or sides of the ex -
I
219
§ 1926.651
29 CM Ch. XVII (7-1-92 Edition)
cavation is secured against caving -in or
movement by rock bolts or by another
protective system that has been de-
signed by a registered professional en-
gineer.
Structural ramp means a ramp built
of steel or wood, usually used for vehi
cle access. Ramps made of soil or rock
are not considered structural ramps. .

such as underpinning, bracing, or
shoring, which provides support to an
adjacent structure,, underground in-
stallation, or the sides of an excava-
tion.
Tabulated data means tables and
charts approved by a registered profes-
sional engineer and used to design and
construct a protective system.
Trench (Trench excavation) means a
narrow excavation (in relation to its
length) made below the surface of the
ground. -In general, the depth is great-
er than the width, but the width of a
trench (measured at the bottom) is
not greater than 15 feet (4.6 m). If
forms or other structures are installed
or constructed in an excavation so as
to reduce the dimension measured
from the forms or structure to the side
of the excavation to 15 feet (4.6 m) or
less (measured at the bottom of the
excavation), the excavation is also con-
sidered to be a trench.
Trench box. See "Shield."
Trench shield. See "Shield."
Uprights means the vertical mem-
bers of a trench shoring system placed
in contact with the earth and usually
positioned so that individual members
do not contact each other. Uprights
placed so that individual members are
closely spaced, in contact with or
interconnected to each other, are
often called "sheeting."
Wales means horizontal members of
a shoring system placed parallel to the
excavation face whose sides bear
against the vertical members of the
shoring system or earth.
§ 1926.651 General requirements.
(a) Surface encumbrances. All sur-
face encumbrances that are located so
as to create a hazard to employees
shall be removed or supported, as nec-
essary, to safeguard employees.
(b) Underground installations. (1)
The estimated location of utility in -
stallations, such as sewer, telephone,

ably may be expected to be encoun-
tered during excavation work, shall be
determined prior to opening an exca-
vation.
(2) Utility companies or owners shall
be contacted within established or
cus-
tomary local response times, advised
of the proposed work, and asked to es-
tablish the location of the utility un-
derground installations prior to the
start of actual excavation. When utili-
ty companies or owners cannot re-
spond to a request to locate under-
ground utility installations within 24
hours (unless a longer period is re-
quired by state or local law), or cannot
establish the exact location of these
installations, the employer may pro-
ceed, provided the employer does so
with caution, and provided detection
equipment or other acceptable means
to locate utility installations are used.
(3) When excavation operations ap-
proach the estimated location of un-
derground installations, the exact lo-
cation of the installations shall be de-
termined by safe and acceptable
means.
(4) While the excavation is open, un-
derground installations shall be pro-
tected, supported or removed as neces-
sary to safeguard employees.
(c) Access and egress —(1) Structural
ramps. (i) Structural ramps that are
used solely by employees as a means of
access or egress from excavations shall
_be designed by a competent person.

the cabs of vehicles being loaded or
unloaded when the vehicles are
equipped, in accordance with
§ 1926.601(b)(6), to provide adequate
protection for the operator during
loading and unloading operations.
(f) Warning system for mobile equip-
ment. When mobile equipment is oper-
ated adjacent to an excavation, or
when such equipment is required to
approach the edge of an excavation,
and the operator does not have a clear
and direct view of the edge of the ex-
cavatibn, a warning system shall be
utilized such as barricades, hand or
mechanical signals, or stop logs. If pos-
sible, the grade should be away from
the excavation.
(g) Hazardous atmospheres —(1)
Testing and controls. In addition to
the requirements set forth in subparts
D and E of this part (29 CFR 1926.50-
1926.107) to prevent exposure to
harmful levels of atmospheric con-
taminants and to assure acceptable at-
mospheric conditions, the following re-
quirements shall apply:

pheres containing less than 19.5 per-
cent oxygen) or a hazardous atmos-
phere exists or could reasonably be ex-
pected to exist, such as in excavations
in landfill areas or excavations in
areas where hazardous substances are
stored nearby, the atmospheres in the
excavation shall be tested before em-
ployees enter excavations greater than
4 feet (1.22 m) in depth.
(ii) Adequate precautions shall be
taken to prevent employee exposure to
atmospheres containing less than 19.5
percent oxygen and other hazardous
atmospheres. These precautions in-
clude providing proper respiratory
protection or ventilation in accordance

intended to reduce the level of atmos-
pheric contaminants to acceptable
levels, testing shall be conducted as
often as necessary to ensure that the
atmosphere remains safe.
(2) Emergency rescue equipment. (i)
Emergency rescue equipment, such as
breathing apparatus, a safety harness
and line, or a basket stretcher, shall be
readily available where hazardous at-
mospheric conditions exist or may rea-
sonably be expected to develop during
work in an excavation. This equipment
shall be attended when in use.
(ii) Employees entering bell-bottom
pier holes, or other similar deep and
confined footing excavations, shall
wear a harness with a life -line securely
attached to it. The lifeline shall be
separate from any line used to handle
materials, and shall be individually at-
tended at all times while the employee
wearing the lifeline is in the excava-
tion.
(h) Protection from hazards associ-
ated with water accumulation. (1) Em-
ployees shall not work in excavations
in which there is accumulated water,
or in excavations in which water is ac-
cumulating, unless adequate precau-
tions have been taken to protect em-
ployees against the hazards posed by
water accumulation. The precautions
necessary to protect employees ade-
quately vary with each situation, but
I
221

removal equipment and operations
shall be monitored by a competent
person to ensure proper operation.
(3) If excavation work interrupts the
natural drainage of surface water
(such as streams), diversion ditches,
dikes, or other suitable means shall be
used to prevent surface water from en-
tering the excavation and to provide
adequate drainage of the area adja-
cent to the excavation. Excavations
subject to runoff from heavy rains will
require an inspection by a competent
person and compliance with para-
graphs (h)(1) and (h)(2) of this sec-
tion. ili
(i) Stabty of adjacent structures.
(1) Where the stability of adjoining
buildings, walls, or other structures is
endangered by excavation operations,
support systems such as shoring, brac-
ing, or underpinning shall be provided
to ensure the stability of such struc-
tures for the protection of employees.
(2) Excavation below the level of the
base or ,footing of any foundation or
retaining wall that could be reason-
ably expected to pose a hazard to em-
ployees shall not be permitted except
when:
(i) A support system, such as under-
pinning, is provided to ensure the
safety of employees and the stability
of the structure; or
(ii) The excavation is in stable rock;
or
(iii) A registered professional engi-
neer has approved the determination
that the structure is sufficently re-
moved
from the excavation so as to be
unaffected by the excavation activity;
or

protective barricades at intervals as
necessary on the face to stop and con-
tain falling material; or -other means
that provide equivalent protection.
(2)_Employees shall be protected
from excavated 'or other materials or
equipment that could pose a hazard by
falling or rolling into excavations. Pro-
tection shall be provided by- placing
and keeping such materials or equip-
ment at least 2 feet (.61 m) from the
edge of excavations, or by the use of
retaining devices that are. sufficient to
prevent materials or equipment from
falling or rolling into excavations, or
by a combination of both if necessary.
(k) Inspections. Cl) Daily inspections
• of excavations, the adjacent areas, and
protective systems shall be made by a
competent person for evidence of a sit-
uation that could result in possible
cave-ins, indications of failure of pro-
tective systems, hazardous atmos-
pheres, or other hazardous conditions.
An inspection shall be conducted by
the competent person prior to the
start of work and as needed through-
out the shift. Inspections shall also be
made after every rainstorm or other
hazard increasing occurrence. These
inspections are only required when
employee exposure can be reasonably
anticipated.
(2) Where the competent person
finds evidence of a situation that could
_ result in a possible cave-in, indications
of failure of protective systems, haz-
ardous atmospheres, or other hazard-
ous conditions, exposed employees
shall be removed from the hazardous
area until the necessary precautions
have been taken . to ensure their
safety.

sible loss of soil from behind or below
the bottom of the support system.
(ii) Installation of a support system
shall be closely coordinated with the
excavation of trenches.
(f) Sloping and benching systems.
Employees shall not be permitted to
work on the faces of sloped or benched
excavations at levels above other em-
ployees except when employees at the
lower levels are adequately protected
from the hazard of falling, rolling, or
sliding material or equipment.
(g) Shield systems —(1) General. (i)
Shield systems shall not be subjected
to loads exceeding those which the
system was designed to withstand.
(ii) Shields shall be installed in a
manner to restrict lateral or other
hazardous movement of the shield in
the event of the application of sudden
lateral loads.
(iii) Employees shall be protected
from the hazard of cave-ins when en-
tering or exiting the areas protected
by shields.
(iv) Employees shall not be allowed
in shields when shields are being in-
stalled, removed, or moved vertically.
(2) Additional requirement for shield
systems used in trench excavations.
Excavations of earth material to a
level not greater than 2 feet (.61 m)
below the bottom of a shield shall be
permitted, but only if the shield is de-
signed to resist the forces calculated
for the full depth of the trench, and
there are no indications while the
trench is open of a possible loss of soil
from behind or below the bottom of
the shield.
APPENDIX A TO SUBPART P -SOIL
CLASSIFICATION
(a) Scope and application —{1) Scope. This
appendix describes a method of classifying
soil and rock deposits based on site and envi-
ronmental conditions, and on the structure
and composition of the earth deposits. The
appendix contains definitions, sets forth re-
quirements, and describes acceptable visual
and manual tests for use in classifying soils.
(2) Application. This appendix applies
when a sloping or benching system is de-
signed in accordance with the requirements
set forth in § 1926.652(b)(2) as a method of
protection for employees from cave-ins.
This appendix also applies when timber
shoring for excavations is designed as a
method of protection from cave-ins in ac-
cordance with appendix C to subpart P of
part 1926, and when aluminum hydraulic
shoring is designed in accordance with ap-
pendix D. This Appendix also applies if
other protective systems are designed and
selected for use from data prepared in ac-
cordance with the requirements set forth in
§ 1926.652(c), and the use of the data is
I
225
Subpt. P, App. A - 29 CFR Ch. XVII (7-1-42 Edition) '
predicated on the use of the soil classifica-
tion system set forth in this appendix.
(b) Definitions. The definitions and exam-
ples given below are based on, in whole or in
part, the following: American Society for
Testing Materials (ASTM) Standards D653-
85 and D2488; The Unified Soils Classifica-
tion System, The U.S. Department of Agri-
culture (USDA) Textural Classification
Scheme; and The National Bureau of Stand-
ards Report BSS -121.
Cemented soil means a soil in which the
particles are held together by a chemical
agent, such as calcium carbonate, such that
a hand -size sample cannot be crushed into
powder or individual soil particles by finger
pressure.
Cohesive soil means clay (fine grained
soil), or soil with a high clay content, which
has cohesive strength. Cohesive soil does
not crumble, can be excavated with vertical
-sideslopes, and is plastic when moist. Cohe-
sive soil is hard to break up when dry, and
exhibits significant cohesion when sub-
merged. Cohesive soils include clayey silt,
sandy clay, silty clay, clay and organic clay.
Dry soil means soil that does not exhibit
visible signs of moisture content.
Fissured means a soil material that has a
tendency to break along definite planes of
fracture with little resistance, or a material
that exhibits open cracks, such as tension
cracks. in an exposed surface.
Granular soil means gravel, sand, or silt,
(coarse grained soil) with little or no clay
content. Granular soil has no cohesive
strength. Some moist granular soils exhibit
apparent cohesion. Granular soil cannot be
molded when moist and crumbles easily
when dry.
Layered system means two or more dis-
tinctly different soil or rock types arranged
in layers. Micaceous seams or weakened
planes in rock or shale areconsidered lay-
ered.
Moist soil means a condition in which a
soil looks and feels damp. Moist cohesive
soil can easily be shaped into a ball and
rolled into small diameter threads before
crumbling. Moist granular soil that contains
some cohesive material will exhibit signs of
cohesion between particles.
Plastic means a property of a soil which
allows the soil to be deformed or molded
without cracking, or appreciable volume
change.
Saturated soil means a soil in which the
voids are filled with water. Saturation does
not require flow. Saturation, or near satura-
tion, is necessary for the proper use of in-
struments such as a pocket penetrometer or
sheer vane.
Soil classification system means, for the
purpose of this subpart, a method of catego-
rizing soil and rock deposits in a hierarchy
of Stable Rock, Type A,. Type B, and Type
C, in decreasing order of stability: The cate-
gories are determined based on an analysis
of the properties and performance charac-
teristics of the deposits and the environ-
mental conditions of exposure.
Stable rock means natural solid mineral
matter that can be excavated with vertical
sides and remain intact while exposed. ..
Submerged soil means soil which is under-
water or is free seeping.
Type A means cohesive soils with an un-
confined compressive strength of 1.5 ton per
square foot (tsf) (144 kPa) or greater. Exam-
ples of cohesive soils are: clay, silty clay,
sandy clay, clay loam and, in some cases,
silty . clay loam and sandy clay loam. Ce-
mented soils such• as caliche and hardpan
are also considered Type A. However, no soil
is Type A if:
(i) The soil is fissured; or
(ii) The soil is subject to vibration from
heavy traffic, pile driving, or similar effects;
or
(iii) The soil has been previously dis-
turbed; or
(iv) The soil is part of a sloped, layered
system where the layers dip into the excava-
tion on a slope of four horizontal to one ver-
tical (4H:1V) or greater; or
(v) The material is subject to other factors
that would require it to be classified as a
less stable material.
Type B means:
(i) Cohesive soil with an unconfined com-
pressive strength greater than 0.5 tsf (48
kPa) but less than 1.5 tsf (144 kPa); or
(ii) Granular cohesionless soils including:
angular gravel (similar to crushed rock), silt,
silt loam, sandy loam and, in some cases,
silty clay loam and sandy clay loam.
(iii) Previously disturbed soils except
those which would otherwise be classed as
Type C soiL
(iv) Soil that meets the unconfined com-
pressive strength or cementation require-
ments for Type A, but is fissured or subject
to vibration: or
(v) Dry rock that is not stable; or
(vi) Material that is part of a sloped, lay-
ered system where the layers dip into the
excavation on a slope less steep than four
horizontal to one vertical (4H:1V), but only
if the material would otherwise be classified
as Type B.
Type C means:
(i) Cohesive soil with an unconfined com-
pressive strength of 0.5 tsf (48 kPa) or less;
or -
(ii) Granular soils including gravel, sand,
and loamy sand; or
(iii) Submerged soil or soil from which
water is freely seeping; or
(iv) Submerged rock that is not stable, or
(v) Material in a sloped, layered system
where the layers dip into the excavation or
a slope of four horizontal to one vertical
•(4H:1V) or steeper.

Unconfined compressive strength means
the load per unit area at which a soil will
fail in compression. It can be determined by
laboratory testing, or estimated in the field
using a pocket penetrometer, by thumb pen-
etration tests, and other methods.
Wet soil means soil that contains signifi-
cantly more moisture than moist soil, but in
such a range of values that cohesive materi-
al will slump or begin to flow when vibrated.
Granular material that would exhibit cohe-
sive properties when moist will lose those
cohesive properties when wet.
(c) Requirements —U) Classification of
soil and rock deposits. Each soil and rock
deposit shall be classified by a competent
person as Stable Rock, Type A, Type B, or
Type C in accordance with the definitions
set forth in paragraph (b) of this appendix.
(2) Basis of classification. The classifica-
tion of the deposits shall be made based on
the results of at least one visual and at least
one manual analysis. Such analyses shall be
conducted by a competent person using
tests described in paragraph (d) below, or in
other recognized methods of soil classifica-
tion and testing such as those adopted by
the America Society for Testing Materials,
or the U.S. Department of Agriculture tex-
tural classification system -
(3) Visual and manual analyses. The
visual and manual analyses, such as those
noted as being acceptable in paragraph (d)
of this appendix, shall be designed and con-
ducted to provide sufficient quantitative
and qualitative information as may be nec-
essary to identify properly the properties,
factors, and conditions affecting the classifi-
cation of the deposits.
(4) Layered systems. In a layered system,
the system shall be classified in accordance
with its weakest layer. However, each layer
may be classified individually where a more
stable layer lies under a less stable layer.
(5) Reclassification. If, after classifying a
deposit, the properties, factors, or condi-
tions affecting its classification -change in
any way, the changes shall be evaluated by
a competent person. The deposit shall be re-
classified as necessary to reflect the
changed circumstances.
(d) Acceptable visual and manual tests. —
(1) Visual tests. Visual analysis is conducted
to determine qualitative information regard-
ing the excavation site in general, the soil
adjacent to the excavation, the soil forming
the sides of the open excavation, and the
soil taken as samples from excavated mate-
rial.
(i) Observe samples of soil that are exca-
vated and soil in the sides of the excavation.
Estimate the range of particle sizes and the
relative amounts of the particle sizes. Soil
that is primarily composed of fine-grained
material is cohesive material. Soil composed
primarily of coarse -grained sand or gravel is
granular material.
(ii) Observe soil as it is excavated. Soil
that remains in clumps when excavated is
cohesive. Soil that breaks up easily and does
not stay in clumps is granular.
(iii) Observe the side of the opened exca-
vation and the surface area adjacent to the
excavation. Crack -like openings such as ten-
sion cracks could indicate fissured material.
If chunks of soil spall off a vertical side, the
soil could be fissured. Small spalls are evi-
dence of moving ground and are indications
of potentially hazardous situations.
(iv) Observe the area adjacent to the exca-
vation and the excavation itself for evidence
of existing utility and other underground
structures, and to identify previously dis-
turbed soil.
(v) Observe the opened side of the excava-
tion to identify layered systems. Examine
layered systems to identify if the layers
slope toward the excavation. Estimate the
degree of slope of the layers.
(vi) Observe the area adjacent to the exca-
vation and the sides of the opened excava-
tion for evidence of surface water, water
seeping from the sides of the excavation, or
the location of the level of the water table.
(vii) Observe the area adjacent to the ex-
cavation and the area within the excavation
for sources of vibration that may affect the
stability of the excavation face.
(2) Manual tests. Manual analysis of soil
samples is conducted to determine quantita-
tive as well as qualitative properties of soil
and to provide more information in order to
classify soil properly.
(i) Plasticity. Mold a moist or wet sample
of soil into a ball and attempt to roll it into
threads as thin as '/a -inch in diameter. Cohe-
sive material can be successfully rolled into
threads without crumbling. For example, if
at least a two inch (50 mm) length of ye -inch
thread can be held on one end without tear-
ing, the soil is cohesive.
(ii) Dry strength. If the soil is dry and
crumbles on its own or with moderate pres-
sure into individual grains or fine powder, it
is granular (any combination of gravel,
sand, or silt)..If the soil is dry and falls into
clumps which break up into smaller clumps,
but the smaller clumps can only be broken
up. with difficulty, it may be clay in any
combination with gravel, sand or silt. If the
dry soil breaks into clumps which do not•
break up into small clumps and which can
only be broken with difficulty, and there is
no visual indication the soil is fissured, the
soil may be considered unfissured.
(iii) Thumb penetration. The thumb pene-
tration test can be used to estimate the un-
confined compressive strength of cohesive
soils. (This test is based on the thumb pene-
tration test described in American Society
for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard
designation D2488 —"Standard Recommend-
ed Practice for Description of Soils (Visual -
I
227
Subpt. P, App. B 29 CFR Ch. XVII (7-1-92 Edition) I
Manual Procedure).") Type A soils with an
unconfined compressive strength of 1.5 tsf
can be readily indented by the thumb; how-
ever, they can be penetrated by the thumb
only with very great effort. Type C soils
with an unconfined compressive strength of
0.5 tsf can be easily penetrated several
inches by the thumb, and can be molded by
light finger pressure. This test should be
conducted on an undisturbed soil sample,
such as a large clump of spoil, as soon as
practicable after excavation to keep to a mi-
minum the effects of exposure to drying in-
fluences. If the excavation is later exposed
to wetting influences (rain, flooding), the
classification of the soil must be changed ac-
cordingly.
(iv) Other strength tests. Estimates of un-
confined compressive strength of soils can
also be obtained by use of a pocket pene-
trometer or by using a hand -operated shear -
vane.
(v) Drying test. The basic purpose of the
drying test is to differentiate between cohe-
sive material with fissures, unfissured cohe-
sive material, and granular material. The
procedure for the drying test involves
drying a sample of soil that is approximate-
ly one inch thick (2.54 cm) and six inches
(15.24 cm) in diameter until it is thoroughly
dry:
(A) If the sample develops cracks as it
dries, significant fissures are indicated.
(B) Samples that dry without cracking are
to be broken by hand. If considerable force•
is necessary to break a sample, the soil has
significant cohesive material content. The
soil can be classified as a unfissured cohe-
sive material and the unconfined compres-
sive strength should be determined.
(C) If a sample breaks easily by hand, it is
either a fissured cohesive material or a
granular material. To distinguish between
the two, pulverize the dried clumps of the
sample by hand or by stepping on them. If
the clumps do not pulverize easily, the ma- _
terial is cohesive with fissures. If they pul-
verize easily into very small fragments, the
material is granular.
APPENDIX B TO SUBPART P -SLOPING
AND BENCHING
(a) Scope and application. This appendix
contains specifications for sloping and
benching when used as methods of protect-
ing employees working in excavations from
cave-ins. The requirements of this appendix
apply when the design of sloping and bench-
ing protective systems is to be performed in
accordance with the requirements set forth
in § 1926.652(b)(2).
(b) Definitions.
Actual slope means the slope to which an
excavation face is excavated.
Distress means that the soil is in a condi-
tion where a cave-in Is imminent or is likely
to occur. Distress is evidenced by such phe-
nomena as the development of fissures in
the face of or adjacent to an open excava-
tion; the subsidence of the edge of an exca-
vation; the slumping of material from the
face or the bulging or heaving of material
from the bottom of an excavation; the spall-
ing of material from the face of an excava-
tion; and ravelling, i.e., small amounts of
material such as pebbles or little clumps of
material suddenly separating from the face
of an excavation and trickling or rolling
down into the excavation.
Maximum allowable slope means the
steepest incline of an excavation face that is
acceptable for the most favorable site condi-
tions as protection against cave-ins, and is
expressed as the ratio of horizontal distance
to vertical rise (H:V).
Short term exposure means a period of
time less than or equal to 24 hours that an
excavation is open.
(c) Requirements --(1) Soil classi,(ication.
Soil and rock deposits shall be classified in
accordance with appendix A to subpart P of
part 1926.
(2) Maximum allowable slope. The maxi-
mum allowable slope for a soil or rock de-
posit shall be determined from Table B-1 of
this appendix.
(3) Actual slope. (i) The actual slope shall
not be steeper than the maximum allowable
slope.
(ii) The actual slope shall be less steep
than the maximum allowable slope, when
there are signs of distress. If that situation
occurs, the slope shall be cut back to an
actual slope which is at least 'h horizontal
to one vertical (S4H:1V) less steep than the
maximum allowable slope.
(iii) When surcharge loads from stored
material or equipment, - operating equip-
ment, or traffic are present, a competent
person shall determine. the degree to which
the actual slope must be reduced below the
maximum allowable slope, and shall assure
that such reduction is achieved. Surcharge
loads from adjacent structures shall be eval-
uated in accordance with § 1926.651(i).
(4) Configurations. Configurations of slop-
ing and benching systems shall be in accord-
ance with Figure B-1.

SHORING FOR TRENCHES
(a) Scope. This appendix contains infor-
mation that can be used timber shoring is
provided as a method of protection from
cave-ins in trenches that do not exceed 20
feet (6.1 m) in depth. This appendix must be
used when design of timber shoring protec-
tive systems is to be performed in accord-
ance with § 1926.652(c)(1). Other timber
shoring configurations; other systems of
support such as. hydraulic and pneumatic
systems; and other protective systems such
as sloping, benching, shielding, and freezing
systems must be designed in accordance
with the requirements set forth in
§ 1926.652(b) and § 1926.652(c).
(b) Soil Classification. In order to use the
data presented in this appendix, the soil
type or types in which the excavation is
made must first be determined using the
soil classification method set forth in appen-
dix A of subpart P of this part.
(c) Presentation of Information. Informa-
tion is presented in several forms as follows:
(1) Information is presented in tabular
form in Tables C-1.1, C-1.2, and C-1.3, and

paragraph (g) of the appendix. Each table
presents the minimum sizes of timber mem-
:bers to use in a shoring system, -and each
table.contains.data.'only for the particular
soil..type in .which th'e,excavation_or ortion.
of the excavation is made. The data are ar-
ranged to allow the user the flexibility ,to
select from among severalacceptable con-
figurations of members based on'varying"
the horizontal spacing of the crossbraces.
Stable rock is' exempt -from shoring require-
ments and therefore, no data'areresented
for this condition.
(2) Information concerning the basis of
the tabular data and .the limitations of the
data is presented in paragraph (d) of this
appendix, and on the tables themselves.
(3) Information explaining the use of the
tabular data is presented in paragraph (e) of
this appendix.
(4) Information illustrating the use of the
tabular data is presented in paragraph (f) of
this appendix.
(5) Miscellaneous notations regarding
Tables C-1.1 through C-1.3 and Tables C-
2.1 through C-2.3 are presented in para-
graph (g) of this Appendix. .
(d) Basis and limitations of the data. —(1)
Dimensions of timber members. (i) The sizes
of the timber members listed in Tables C-
1.1 through C-1.3 are taken from the Na-
tional Bureau of Standards (NBS) report,
"Recommended Technical Provisions for
Construction Practice in Shoring and Slop-
ing of Trenches and Excavations." In addi-
tion, where NBS did not recommend specific
sizes of members, member sizes are based on
an analysis of the sizes required for use by
existing codes and on empirical practice.
(ii) The required dimensions of the mem-
bers listed in Tables C-1.1 through C-1.3
refer to actual dimensions and not nominal
dimensions of the timber.. Employers want-
ing to use nominal size shoring are directed
to Tables C-2.1 through C-2.3, or have this
choice under § 1926.652(c)(3),- and are re-
ferred to The Corps of Engineers, The
Bureau of Reclamation or data from other
acceptable sources.
(2) Limitation of application. (i) It is not
intended that the timber shoring specifica-
tion apply to every situation that may be
experienced in the field. These data were
developed to apply to the situations that are
most commonly experienced in current
trenching practice. Shoring systems for use
in situations that are not covered by the
data in this appendix must be designed as
specified in § 1926.652(c).
(ii) When any of the following conditions
are present, the members specified in the
tables are not considered adequate. Either
an alternate timber shoring system must be
designed or another type of protective
system designed in accordance with
§ 1926.652.
(A) When loads imposed by'structures or
by stored material adjacent to the trench
weign in excess of the load imposed by a
two -foot soil •surcharge. The .term "adja-
cent" as used here ins the area within a
horizontal distance Yrom':theedge of :tbe
-trench equal to the depth of the trench.
(B). When vertical cads imposed_on cross
braces exceed a 240 -pound gravity Ioad.dis-
tributed on a one -foot_ section of the center
of the crossbrace.
(C) When surcharge loads are :present
from equipment weighing in excess of 20,000
pounds.
(D) When only the lower portion of a
trench is shored and the remaining portion
of the trench is sloped or benched unless:
The sloped portion is sloped at an angle less
steep than three horizontal to one vertical;
or the members are selected from the tables
for use at a depth which is determined from
the top of the overall trench, and not from
the toe of the sloped portion.
(e) Use of Tables. The members of the
shoring system that are to be selected using
this information are the cross braces, the
uprights, and the wales, where wales are re-
quired. Minimum sizes of members are spec-
ified for use in different types of soil. There
are six tables of information, two for each
soil type. The soil type must first be deter-
mined in accordance with the soil classifica-
tion system described in appendix A to sub-
part P of part 1926. Using the appropriate
table, the selection of the size and spacing
of the members is then made. The selection
is based on the depth and width of the
trench where the members are to be in-
stalled and, in most instances, the selection
is also based on the horizontal spacing of
the crossbraces. Instances where a choice of
horizontal *spacing of'crossbracing is avail-
able, the horizontal spacing of the cross -
braces must be chosen by the user before
the size of any member can be determined.
When the soil type, the width and depth of
the trench, and the horizontal spacing of
the crossbraces are known, the size and ver-
tical spacing of the crossbraces, the size and
vertical spacing of the wales, and the size
and horizontal spacing of the uprights can
be read from the appropriate table.
(f) Examples to Mustrate the Use of Tables
C-1.1 through C-1.3.
(1) Example 1.
A trench dug in Type A soil is 13 feet deep
and five feet wide.
From Table C-1.1, for acceptable arrange-
ments of timber can be used.
Arrangement #1
Space 4x4 crossbraces at six feet horizon-
tally and four feet vertically.
Wales are not required.
Li
237
Subpt. P, App. C
29 CFR Ch. XVII (7-1-92 Edition)
Space 3x8 uprights at six feet horizontal-
ly. This arrangement is commonly called
"skip shoring."
Arrangement #2
Space 4x6 crossbraces at eight feet hori-
zontally and four feet vertically.
Space 8x8 wales at four feet vertically.
Space 2x6 uprights at four feet horizon-
tally.
Arrangement #3
Space 6 x 6 crossbraces at 10 feet horizon-
tally and four feet vertically.
Space 8x10 10 wales at four feet vertically.
Space 2 x 6 uprights at five feet horizontal-
ly.
Arrangement #4
Space 6x6 crossbraces at 12 feet horizon-
tally and four feet vertically.
Space lOx 10 wales at four feet vertically.
Spaces 3x8 uprights at six feet horizon-
tally. -
(2) Example 2.
A trench dug in Type B soil in 13 feet
deep and five feet wide. Prom Table C-1.2
three acceptable arrangements of members
are listed.
Arrangement #1
Space 6x6 crossbraces at six feet horizon-
tally and five feet vertically.
Space 8x8 wales at five feet vertically.
Space 2x6 uprights at two feet horizontal-
ly.
Arrangement #2
Space 6x8 crossbraces at eight feet hori-
zontally and five feet vertically.
Space lOx 10 wales at five feet vertically.
Space 2 x 6 uprights at two feet horizontal-
ly.
Arrangement #3
Space 8x8 crossbraces at 10 feet horizon-
tally and five feet vertically.
Space lOx 12 wales at five feet vertically.
Space 2x6 uprights at two feet vertically.
(3) Example 3.
A trench dug in Type C soil is 13 feet deep
and five feet wide.
From Table C-1.3 two acceptable arrange-
ments of members can be used.
Arrangement #1
Space 8x8 crossbraces at six feet horizon-
tally and five feet vertically. I
Space lox 12 wales at five feet vertically.
Position 2x6 uprights as closely together
as possible.
If water must be retained use special
tongue and groove uprights to form tight
sheeting.
Arrangement #2
Space 8x10 crossbraces at eight feet hori-
zontally and five feet vertically.
Space 12x12 wales at five feet vertically.
Position 2x6 uprights in a close sheeting
configuration unless water pressure mustbe
resisted. Tight sheeting must be used where
water must be retained.
(4) Example 4.
A trench dug in Type C soil is 20 feet deep
and 11 feet wide. The size and spacing of
members for the section of trench that is
over 15 feet in depth is determined using
Table C-1.3. Only one arrangement of mem-
bers is provided.
Space 8xl0-crossbraces at six feet hori"
zontally and five feet vertically.
SpaceS 12 x 12 wales at five feet vertically.
Use 3x6 tight sheeting.
Use of Tables C-2.1 through C-2.3 would
follow the same procedures.
(g) Notes for all Tables. -
1. Member sizes at spacings other than in-
dicated are to be determined as specified in
§ 1926.652(e), "Design of Protective Sys
tems."
2. When conditions are saturated or sub-
merged use Tight Sheeting. Tight Sheeting
refers to the use of specially -edged timber
planks (e.g., tongue and groove) at least
three inches thick, steel sheet piling, or
similar construction that when driven -or
placed in position provide a tight wall to
resist the lateral pressure of. water and to
prevent the loss of backfill material. Close
Sheeting refers to the placement of planks
side -by -side allowing as little space as possi
ble between them.
3. All spacing indicated is measured center
to center.
4. Wales to be installed with greater di-
mension horizontal.
5. If the vertical distance from the center
of the lowest crossbrace to the bottom of
•the trench exceeds two and one-half feet,"
uprights shall be firmly embedded or a
mudsill shall be used. Where uprights are
embedded, the vertical distance from the
center of the lowest crossbrace to the
bottom of the trench shall not exceed 36
inches. When mudsills are used, the vertical
distance shall not exceed 42 inches. Mudsilis
are wales that are. installed at the toe of the
trench side.
6. Trench jacks may be used in lieu of or
in combination with timber crossbraces.
7. Placement of crossbraces. When the ver-
tical spacing of crossbraces is four feet,
place the top crossbrace no more than two
feet below the top of the trench. When the
vertical spacing of crossbraces is five feet,'
place the top crossbrace no more than 2.5
feet below the top of the trench.

APPENDI$ D TO SUBPART P-ALlrmcr.K**M
.HYDRADLIC SHORING FOR TI*ENCHts
(a) Scope:'This appendix contains. -infor-
mation that -can be used when aluminum
hydraulic shoring is provided as a method
f. protection against cave-ins in trenches
that,do pot exceed 20 feet (6.1m) in zlepth.•
•This appendix must be used when:design of
the Aluminum hydraulic protective system
cannot be performed in accordance with
3 1926.652(c)(2). -
(b) Soil Classification. In order to use
data presented in this .appendix, the .boil
type or types in which the excavation is
made must first be determined using the
soil .classification method set forth in appen-
dix A of subpart P of part 1926.
(c) -Presentation of Information. Informa-
tion is presented in several forms as follows:
(1) Information is presented in tabular
form in Tables D-1.1, D-1.2, D-1.3 and E-
1.4. Each table presents the maximum verti-
cal and horizontal spacings that may be
used with various aluminum member sizes
and various hydraulic cylinder sizes. Each
table contains data only for the particular
soil type in which the excavation or portion
of the excavation is made. Tables D-1.1 and
D-1.2 are for vertical shores in Types A and
B soil. Tables D-1.3 and DI.4 are for hori-
zontal waler systems in Types B and C soil.
(2) Information concerning the basis of
the tabular data and the limitations of the
data is presented in paragraph (d) of this
appendix.
(3) Information explaining the use of the
tabular data is presented in paragraph (e) of
this appendix.
(4) Information illustrating the use of the
tabular data is presented in paragraph (f) of
this appendix.
(5) Miscellaneous notations (footnotes) re-
garding Table D-1.1 through D-1.4 are pre-
sented in paragraph (g) of this appendix.
(6) Figures, illustrating typical- installa-
tions of hydraulic shoring, are included just
prior to the Tables. The illustrations page is
entitled "Aluminum Hydraulic Shoring;
Typical Installations."
(d) Basis and limitations of the data.
(1) Vertical shore rails and horizontal
wales are those that meet the Section Mod-
ulus requirements in the D-1 Tables. Alumi-
num material is 6061-T6• or material of
equivalent strength and properties.
(2) Hydraulic cylinders specifications. (i)
2 -inch cylinders shall be a minimum 2 -inch
inside diameter with a minimum safe work-
ing capacity of no less than 18,000 pounds
axial compressive load at maximum exten-
sion. Maximum extension is. to include full
range of cylinder extensions as recommend-
ed by product manufaturer.
(if) 3 -inch cylinders shall be a minimum 3 -
inch inside diameter with a safe working ca-
pacity of not less than 30,000 :pounds axial
compressive load at" extensions as recom-
mended by product manufacturer:
(3) Limitation of application.
(1) it is not Intended that the aluminum'
hydraulic specification. apply to every sltua-
t1Qn that.may be experienced in the field.
These .data were. developed: to.'apply .to the
situations that are most; ommonly expert-
.enced in current trenching practice: Shoring
systems for use in situations that are not
covered by the -data in this appendix must
be otherwise designed as specified in
§ 1926.652(c).
(ii). When any o1 the following conditions
are present, the members specified 'in the.
Tables are not considered adequate. In this
case, an alternative aluminum hydraulic
shoring system or other type of protective
system must be designed in accordance with
¢ 1926.652.
(A) When vertical loads imposed on cross
braces exceed a 100 Pound gravity load dis-
tributed on a one foot section o₹ the center
of the hydraulic cylinder.
(B) When surcharge loads are present
from equipment weighing in excess of
20,000 pounds.
(C) When only the lower portion or a
trench is shored and the remaining portion
of the trench is sloped or benched unless:
The sloped portion is sloped at an angle less
steep than three horizontal to one vertical;
or the members are selected from the tables
for use at a depth which is determined from
the top of the overall trench, and not from
the toe of the sloped portion.
(e) Use of Tables D-1.1, 13-1.2, D-1.3 and
D-1.4. The members of the shoring system
that are to be selected using this informa-
tion are the hydraulic cylinders, and either
the vertical shores or the horizontal wales.
When a waler system is used the vertical
timber sheeting to be used is also selected
from these tables. The Tables D-1.1 and D-
1.2 for vertical shores are used in Type A
and B soils that do not require sheeting.
Type B soils that may require sheeting, and
Type C soils that always require sheeting
are found in the horizontal wale Tables D-
1.3 and D-1.4. The soil type must first be de-
termined in accordance with the soil classifi-
cation system described in appendix A to
subpart P of part 1926. Using the appropri-
ate table, the selection of the size and spac-
ing of the members is made. The selection is
based on the depth and width of the trench
where the members are to be installed. In
these tables the vertical spacing is held con-
stant at four feet on center. The tables
show the maximum horizontal spacing of
cylinders allowed for each size of wale in
the waler system tables, and in the vertical
shore tables, the hydraulic cylinder horizon-
tal spacing is the same as the vertical shore
spacing.

material, remove the unsuitable material and backfill with approved material, such as select
material "hillside" for the subgrade or "hillside" or acceptable material from common
excavation on the slopes..
E. Place material unsuitable for embankment construction on slopes, hauled off site, or other
locations designated by Engineer.
F. Remove rock with suitable rippers and/. or by some mechanical method. Blasting will not be
permitted.
G. Excavate rock to a minimum depth of 12 inches below subgrade elevation, not to exceed a
maximum depth of 18 inches below subgrade elevation within the limits of the roadbed,
including sidewalks, and the excavation backfilled with material designated on the Drawings.
Take care that un-drained pockets shall not be left in the surface of the rock.
H. Remove or stabilize, to the Engineer's satisfaction, rock on the cut face that is loose, hanging,
or that creates a potentially dangerous situation during or upon completion of excavation in
each lift. Ripping of the next lift will not be allowed until this work has been completed.
Except in solid rock, trim all slopes to the slopes shown in the cross section drawings, and
exercise care so that no material shall be loosened below the required slopes. Remove or cut
roots, stumps, and other foreign matter in the sides of ditches or drainage outlets to conform
to the slope, grade, and shape of the section shown.
3.5 EMBANKMENT CONSTRUCTION
A. Embankment construction consists of constructing roadway embankments, including
preparation of the areas upon which they are to be placed; construction of dikes within or
outside the right-of-way; placing and compacting approved material within roadway areas
where unsuitable material has been removed; and placing and compacting embankment
material in holes, pits, and other depressions within the roadway area. Use only approved
materials in construction of embankments and backfills.
B. Remove sod and vegetable matter from the surface upon which embankment is to be
constructed in accordance with Section 02100. Completely break up cleared surface by
plowing, scarifying, or disking to a minimum depth of 6 inches, and then recompact as
specified in Paragraph 3.6.C.
C. Whenever a compacted road surface containing asphalt or granular material lies within 3 feet
of the subgrade, remove the old road surface to a depth of at least that shown on the typical
section. Provide select material "hillside" under the proposed road limits and either
City of Fayetteville 09/2/99 Page 02220-4

I
I
"hillside" or acceptable common excavation (when available) in the slope areas and the areas
behind the curb.
D. Place roadway embankment material in parallel layers not exceeding 8 inches, loose
measurement, over the full width of the embankment and compact as specified before the
' next layer is placed. Use effective spreading equipment on each lift to obtain uniform
thickness prior to compacting. As compaction of each layer progresses, continuously level
and manipulate material to assure uniform density. Add water or dry, if necessary, in order
to obtain the required density. Route compaction equipment uniformly over the entire surface
of each layer.
' E. When embankment is to be placed and compacted on hillsides, continuously bench slopes as
the work is brought up in layers. Make benching of sufficient width to permit operations of
I placing and compacting equipment. Start each horizontal cut at the intersection of the
original ground and the vertical sides of the previous cuts. Recompact material thus cut out.
No additional payment will be made for this.
F. When excavated material consists predominantly of rock fragments of such size that the
material cannot be placed in layers of the thickness specified, place such material in the
embankment in layers not exceeding in thickness the approximate size of larger rocks, up to
12 inches maximum. Reduce size of rock or boulders too large to permit placing in 12 inch
layers as necessary to permit this placement. The 12 inches of embankment immediately
below finished subgrade may be placed in one layer with no rock exceeding 6 inches in its
greatest dimension. Construct each layer so that rock voids are substantially filled with rock
fines and earth. Place and manipulate rock in uniform layers with rock fines or earth
distributed throughout the layer. Do not end dump rock over the edges of the layer being
constructed. Deposit rock on the layer being constructed and move the rock ahead so as to
advance the layer with a mixture of rock fines and earth.
G. Casting material directly into place with draglines, cableways, or other similar machines will
not be permitted.
H. Control embankment construction so that partially constructed embankments remain stable
at all times. Replace portions that have become displaced due to carelessness or negligent
work; no extra payment will be made for such embankment repair.
I. For those portions of embankments immediately adjacent to structures or which are for other
reasons inaccessible to compaction equipment in use, construct with only suitable material
in successive parallel layers of not more than 6 inches thickness, loose measurement.
Uniformly mix each layer and compact to the requirement of the specific item by the use of
mechanical equipment. Hand tamping will not be permitted.
' J. Construct embankments in sections of not less than 200 feet in length, or the full length of
the embankment if less than 200 feet.
City of Fayetteville 09/2/99 Page 02220-5
3.6 COMPACTION REQUIREMENTS
A. Accomplish compaction by any satisfactory method or methods that will achieve the
specified density.
B. Maintain compaction equipment, tools, and machinery in good operating condition.
C. Compact each layer of embankment to 95 percent of maximum density at optimum moisture
content per AASHTO T 99, Method A with correction for coarse particles retained on the #4
sieve not to exceed 10 percent by weight as determined by AASHTO T 224. If 11-30 percent
is retained on the #4 sieve, compact to 95 percent of maximum density at optimum moisture
content per AASHTO T99, Method C using Note 7. Specified density of 90 percent with the
same previous conditions is required immediately next to wingwalls and similar structures.
D. During compaction, maintain moisture content substantially at optimum throughout each
layer. Maintain moisture content by adding and thoroughly mixing water or by aeration or
other drying methods, as necessary.
E. Maintain specified density of embankment layer prior to placing a subsequent layer.
F. Construct embankment to grade over the full width in uniform layers parallel to the finished
surface.
G. Density requirements will not apply to portions of embankment constructed of material so
rocky that it cannot be satisfactorily tested as specified. In such cases, determine extent of
compaction effort by rolling based upon the amount of breakage and consolidation that can
be accomplished. This can only be done with the direction of the Engineer.
H. Roadbed Compaction
1. Excavate or• fill to subgrade lines and grades indicated on the Drawings.

Part 2- PRODUCTS
2.1 WATER
A. - Water for flushing and testing water lines will be furnished by Owner at no cost to Contractor.
' Part 3- EXECUTION
3.1 GENERAL
IA. - This section outlines the testing of pipe materials, joints, and/or other materials incorporated
into the construction of water mains to determine leakage and watertightness. Pressure
pipelines shall be tested in accordance with Section 4 of AWWA C600 and as specified herein.
City of Fayetteville 04/14/00 Page 02675-1
3.2 MAINTENANCE OF SERVICE
A. - Schedule and execute construction to minimize service interruption. Whenever it is necessary
for water service to be interrupted for any period of time, provide 5 days notice to affected
businesses and 24 hour notice to affected residences before interrupting service.
3.3 FLUSHING
A. - Fill and flush the newly constructed lines and visually check combination air release and
vacuum valves, blow -off valve assemblies, line valves, and fire hydrants to assure proper
operation.
3.4 TESTING
A. Hydrostatic Testing
1. After water line and service line has been laid, including taps and meter settings, newly
laid pipe or any valved section thereof shall be subjected to hydrostatic testing.
2. Each valved section of pipe shall be slowly filled with water and the specified test
pressure shall be applied by means of a pump connected to the pipe in a manner
satisfactory to Engineer. Before applying the test pressure, all air shall be expelled
from the pipe by permanent taps or corporation cocks where necessary.
3. Test pressure shall be the greatest of 150 percent of the static pressure or 200 psi,
whichever is greater. Provide all pumps or other equipment necessary to maintain the
test pressure within 5 psi at the test point for a period of two hours. Fire hydrant
valves shall be open during the pressure test.
B. Leakage '
1. The leakage test shall be conducted concurrently with the pressure test. Leakage is
defined as the quantity of water that must be supplied into the newly laid pipeline, or
any valved section thereof, to maintain pressure within 5 psi of the specified test
pressure after the air in the pipeline has been expelled and the pipeline has been filled
with water. Leakage shall not be measured by a drop in pressure in a test section over
a period of time. No pipeline installation will be accepted if the leakage is greater than
that determined by the following formula:
L=
SDflP
133200
L = allowable leakage, (gallons per hour)
S = length of pipe tested, (feet)
D = nominal diameter of pipe, (inches)
P = average test pressure during test, (psig)

2. If the leakage is greater than specified above, locate and make repairs as necessary
until leakage is within specified allowance, without additional cost to Owner.
3. Repair visible leaks regardless of the amount of leakage.
' 3.5 DISINFECTION
A. After successful pressure testing, the lines shall be flushed with a velocity equal to or greater
than 2'/z fpThe
e line shall then be disinfected in accordance with AWWA C65 1, continuous
'
feed method, except that the placing of hypochlorite granules into the main during
construction will not be permitted.
' B. Pipes are to be disinfected after laying is completed by holding a chlorine solution of at least
50 ppm strength in the pipe for 24 hours. At the end of the 24 hour period, the treated water
shall contain no less than 25 ppm of chlorine throughout the length of the main.
C. As the heavily chlorinated water flows past fittings and valves, related valves and hydrants
shall be operated so as to disinfect new appurtenances and pipe branches. Take extreme care
to prevent heavily chlorinated water from flowing back into water mains in active service.
Take care to ensure that discharge of flushing water shall not adversely affect any downstream
' properties. The disinfecting water shall be diluted or otherwise have the chlorine
concentration diluted in a manner approved by Engineer. The cost of the chemicals shall be
borne by Contractor.
D. After the lines have been disinfected, they shall be thoroughly flushed until chlorine residual
' measurements show that the concentration in the water leaving the main is no higher than that
generally prevailing in the system or is acceptable for domestic use, or less than 1 ppm.
Disposal of flushing water shall be as described above and as provided by applicable Laws and
Regulations. Procure a special permit from the Arkansas Department of Pollution Control &
Ecology to discharge the solution and water used in the disinfection of the pipes.
E. Bacteriological samples shall then be collected from each respective section of the new main
on two consecutive days and shall be submitted to the Arkansas Department of Health for
analysis. Sampling shall be restricted to Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. The samples
1 shall be collected by Owner personnel.
F. Water lines shall not be placed in service until the results of two consecutive daily samples
' showing negative reports for coliform bacteria (safe) are received by Engineer or Contractor
and are submitted to Owner.
