1.5 INTENT OF DRAWINGS
The drawings are partly diagrammatic and do not necessarily show exact location of piping and ductwork unless specifically dimensioned. Riser and other diagrams are schematic and do not necessarily show the physical arrangement of the equipment. They shall not be used for obtaining lineal runs of piping or ductwork, nor shall they be used for shop drawings for piping and ductwork fabrication or ordering. Discrepancies shown on different plans, or between plans and actual field conditions shall be brought to the attention of the Professional Engineer for resolution.
1.6 RESPONSIBILITY
The Plumbing Contractor shall be responsible for the installation of a satisfactory and complete system in accordance with the intent of the drawing and specifications. Provide, at no extra cost, all incidental items required for completion of the work even though they are not specifically mentioned or indicated on the drawings or in the specifications.
The drawings do not attempt to show complete details of the building construction which affect the plumbing installation; and reference is therefore required to the Architectural, Civil, Structural, Landscape and Electrical drawings and specifications and to shop drawings of all trades for additional details which affect the installation of the work covered under this Division of the Contract.
Location of plumbing system components shall be checked for conflicts with openings, structural members and components of other systems having fixed locations. In the event of any conflicts, the Engineer shall be consulted and his decision shall govern. Necessary changes shall be made at the Contractor’s expense.
Determine, and be responsible for, the proper location and character of inserts for hangers, chases, sleeves, and other openings in the construction required for the work, and obtain this information well in advance of the construction progress so work will not be delayed.
Final location of inserts, hangers, etc., required for each installation, must be coordinated with facilities required for other installations to prevent interference.
Take extreme caution not to install work that connects to equipment until such time as complete
Shop Drawings of such equipment have been approved by the Engineer. Any work installed by the Contractor, prior to approval of Shop Drawings, will be at the Contractor's risk.
At all times during the performance of this Contract, properly protect work from damage and protect the Contracting Officer 's property from injury of loss. Make good any damage, injury or loss, except such as may be directly due to errors in the Bidding Documents or caused by
Agents or Employees of the Contracting Officer. Adequately protect adjacent property as provided by law and the Bidding Documents. Provide and maintain passageways, guard fences, lights and other facilities for protection required by Public Authority or Local conditions.
