About this file

This is a specification document for construction work related to miscellaneous manhole rehabilitation services for the City of Largo, Florida. The document outlines comprehensive technical requirements across multiple specification sections including execution of work, field engineering, references, project meetings, construction progress scheduling, schedule of values, testing laboratory services, and temporary utilities. Key project requirements include demolition and removal of existing equipment and structures, cutting and coring of concrete and masonry, patching and restoration of surfaces, and installation of new equipment and materials. The contractor must provide detailed construction electronic documentation through pre-construction, construction progress, and post-construction phases with photographic and video evidence. A critical path method (CPM) progress schedule must be submitted within ten days of the contract commencement date, with monthly updates required throughout the project duration. The contractor must establish a baseline schedule identifying all work activities, dependencies, and the critical path, with recovery schedules required if the project falls thirty or more days behind schedule without excusable delay justification.

Administrative requirements mandate that the contractor conduct a pre-construction meeting within twenty days of contract execution and no later than ten days prior to on-site activities, with attendance required from the project manager, site superintendent, safety representative, and major subcontractors. A schedule of values must be submitted within ten days of contract commencement, breaking down all costs by specification section and work area, with mobilization limited to two percent of the contract price and demobilization at least one percent. The contractor bears responsibility for all temporary utilities including electricity, water, heating, sanitary facilities, telephone communications, first-aid stations, and fire protection throughout the project duration. Testing laboratory services must be provided by an independent, owner-approved entity, with the owner authorizing only one initial series of tests, with the contractor responsible for all additional testing costs due to improper work performance. Field engineering services require employment of a licensed Florida surveyor for layout and surveying work, with weir elevation adjustments maintained within plus or minus 0.05 inches tolerance and surveyed points spaced no greater than ten feet apart.

1. “Indicated” refers to graphic representations, notes, or schedules on the Drawings, or to other paragraphs or schedules in the Specifications and similar locations in the Contract Documents.

2. “Shown”, “noted”, “scheduled”, and “specified” are used to help the user locate the reference without limitation on the location.

3. “Installer”, “applicator”, or “erector” is Contractor or another entity engaged by Contractor, either as an employee or subcontractor, to perform a particular construction activity, including installation, erection, application or similar Work.

Installers shall be experienced in the Work that installer is engaged to perform.

Project; being familiar with the special requirements indicated; being familiar with Laws and Regulations; and having complied with requirements of authorities having jurisdiction, and complying with requirements of the Supplier of the material or equipment being installed.

5. Trades: Use of a term such as “carpentry” does not imply that certain construction activities must be performed by accredited or unionized individuals of a corresponding generic name, such as “carpenter”, unless otherwise indicated in the Contract Documents or required by Laws or Regulations. Such terminology also does not imply that specified requirements apply exclusively to trade personnel of the corresponding generic name.

6. “Assigned specialists” and similar terms: Certain Sections of the Specifications require that specific construction activities be performed by specialists recognized as experts in those operations. Engage said specialists for those activities, and their engagement is a requirement over which Contractor has no option.

Also, such requirements are not intended to interfere with local trade union jurisdictional settlements and similar conventions. Such assignments shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for complying with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

C. Reference Standards:

1. Refer to General Conditions relative to reference standards and resolving discrepancies between reference standards and the Contract Documents.

Provisions of reference standards are in effect in accordance with the Specifications.
