No additional compensation will be allowed for such costs after award of the Contract.

30. ITEMS AND INDETERMINATE ITEMS: The work to be done under this contract has been divided into items, and items having sub items to enable each Bidder to bid on the different portions of the work in accordance with his unit price estimate of their cost, and so that the actual quantity of work executed under each item, or sub item, may be paid for at the unit price bid for the particular item, or sub item, even though such quantity is greater or less than the estimated quantity stated in the Bid.
