6.2. ORGANIZATION AND INTENT OF CONTRACT
A. Interpreting the Contract.
1. Order of Precedence. In cases of conflict or discrepancy among Contract Documents, interpretations will generally be based on the following order of precedence, ranked from highest to lowest priority:
a. Change Orders;
b. The Construction Contract form;
c. Supplemental General Conditions, if any;
d. General Conditions;
e. Technical Provisions;
f. Plans (figured dimensions will govern over scaled dimensions);
g. The Invitation to Bid and General and Supplemental Instructions to Bidders, including
Addenda thereto;
h. The Bid Schedule;
i. All other documents required to be submitted and submitted as part of Contractor’s Bid
Proposal; and
j. All other Contract Documents that are neither listed above nor expressly incorporated into one of the foregoing Contract Documents;
• with the understanding that a common sense approach will be used as necessary so that the Contract Documents produce the intended response.
2. Contract Documents Complementary. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by one is as binding as if required by all. Anything mentioned in the
Specifications and not shown on the Drawings, or shown on the Drawings and not mentioned in the Specifications, are of like effect as if shown or mentioned in both.
3. Intent to Require Completed Project. The intent of the Contract Documents is to require that Contractor provide all materials and labor, including tools, equipment and supervision, necessary for the proper execution and completion of the Work as a functioning whole or required for a completed Project.
4. Work Required if Reasonably Inferable. Performance by Contractor is required to the extent consistent with the Contract Documents and reasonably inferable from them as being necessary to produce the intended results. Where no explicit quality or standards for materials or workmanship are established for the Work, the Work is to be of good quality for the intended use and consistent with the quality of surrounding Work which conforms to the requirements of the Contract Documents and to the standards for construction of the
Project generally.
5. Organization of Drawings and Specifications. Organization of the Drawings around professional disciplines such as civil, architectural, structural, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical, and of the Specifications into divisions, sections, and articles, does not control
Contractor in dividing the Work among sub-contractors or in establishing the extent of Work to be performed by any trade or excuse Contractor of its obligation to properly allocate and provide for the performance of all Work under the Contract.
6. Documents Excluded from the Contract.The Contract Documents do not include the Site-
Related Reports referenced herein or other documents issued or provided to Contractor for the information of Contractor or for reference purposes and which are not specifically incorporated in the Contract Documents.
7. Titles, Headings, and Capitalization. The titles and headings of the various sections and subsections of these General Conditions and other Contract Documents are intended only as a matter of reference and convenience and in no way define, limit, or prescribe the scope or intent of the Contract Documents. The use, or inadvertent failure to use, capitalization of terms used in the Contract Documents is not intended to define or limit the meaning of the term.
8. Other Interpretive Rules.
a. Provisions of the Contract Documents that use the active voice-imperative mood writing style are directions to Contractor and are intended as commands. In such instance, the subject “the Bidder” or “Contractor” is understood.
b. Provisions of the Contract Documents that use the passive voice writing style are also directions to Contractor and intended as commands unless logic clearly dictates otherwise.
c. Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, words that have well-known technical or construction industry meanings are used in the Contract Documents in accordance…
