MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
1. PART 1 - GENERAL
1.01 SUMMARY
A. Measurement and payment for contract work will be made only for and under those pay items included in the Schedule of Items.

This section defines the method of measurements and basis of payment for work items listed in the Schedule of Items.
B. Not all units and measurement methods may be used under this Contract.
C. Government may award option items at any point during the period of performance and is not required to exercise them at contract award.
1.02 DETERMINATION OF QUANTITIES
A. The following measurements and calculations shall be used to determine contract quantities for payment.
1. For individual construction items, longitudinal and lateral measurements for area computation shall be made horizontally or corrected to horizontal measurement unless otherwise specified. Measurements for geotextiles, netting, and erosion control blankets shall be along slope lines.
2. For items that are measured by the linear foot, such as pipe culverts, fencing, guardrail, piping, utilities, and underdrains, measurement shall be made parallel to the base of foundation upon which the structures are placed.
3. For standard manufactured items (such as fence, wire, plates, rolled shapes, pipe conduits) identified by gauge, weight, section dimensions, and so forth, such identifications shall be considered the nominal weights or dimensions.
Unless controlled by tolerances in cited specifications, manufacturer's tolerances shall be accepted.
1.03 UNITS OF MEASUREMENT
A. Payment shall be by units defined and determined according to U.S. Standard measure and by the following:
1. Each (EA): One complete unit, which may consist of one or more parts.
2. Linear Foot (LF): Measurement of work along its length from point-to-point;
parallel to the base or foundation. Do not measure overlaps.
3. Lump Sum (LS): One complete unit, not directly measured. The bid amount is complete payment for all work described in the contract and necessary to complete the work for that item.
B. All measurement done in actual quantities.
1.04 METHOD OF MEASUREMENT
