1.2 COORDINATION AND PROJECT CONDITIONS

A. Coordinate scheduling, submittals, and Work of various Sections of Project Manual to ensure efficient and orderly sequence of installation of interdependent construction elements.

B. Verify that utility requirements and characteristics of operating equipment are compatible with building utilities. Coordinate Work of various Sections having interdependent responsibilities for installing, connecting to, and placing operating equipment in service.

C. Coordinate space requirements, supports, and installation of mechanical and electrical Work indicated diagrammatically on Exhibit. Follow routing shown for pipes, ducts, and conduit as closely as practical; place runs parallel with lines of building. Use spaces efficiently to maximize accessibility for other installations, for maintenance, and for repairs:

1. Coordination Drawings: Prepare as required to coordinate all portions of Work.

Show relationship and integration of different construction elements that require coordination during fabrication or installation to fit in space provided or to function as intended. Indicate locations where space is limited for installation and access and where sequencing and coordination of installations are important.

D. Coordination Meetings: In addition to other meetings specified in this Section, hold coordination meetings with personnel and Subcontractors to ensure coordination of Work.

E. Coordinate completion and clean-up of Work of separate Sections in preparation for Substantial Completion.

Should the Contractor's operations damage any existing facilities and render them unavailable for continued use prior to the scheduled time for their removal, the Contractor will take immediate action to furnish, install, and place into operation alternate equivalent facilities. Should only minor repairs be required to the existing facilities, the Contractor shall immediately make such necessary repairs and restore the existing facilities to full service. All costs for such repairs or additional costs for operation of alternate facilities for a period of time longer than planned will be paid for by the Contractor.

D. The nature, location, capacity, and type of facilities proposed for maintaining continuity of Owner operations will at all times are subject to the approval of the Engineer.
