A. General Explanation: A substantial amount of specification language consists of definitions of terms found in other contract documents, including drawings. (Drawings are recognized as being diagrammatic in nature and not completely descriptive of requirements indicated thereon).

Certain terms used in contract documents are defined in this article. Definitions and explanations contained in this section are not necessarily either complete or exclusive, but are general for the work to the extent that they are not stated more explicitly in another element of contract documents.

B. Special Conditions: Wherever the term "Special Conditions" or "Section, Special Conditions" is used in the specifications, it refers collectively to all of the sections in Division 1, General Requirements and the Contract Clauses.

C. Indicated: The term "Indicated" is a cross-reference to graphic representations, notes or schedules on drawings, to other paragraphs or schedules in the specifications, and to similar means of recording requirements in contract documents. Where terms such as "shown", "noted", "scheduled", and "specified" are used in lieu of "indicated", it is for purpose of helping reader locate cross-reference, and no limitation of location is intended except as specifically noted.

D. Directed, Requested, etc.: Where not otherwise explained, terms such as "directed", "requested", "authorized", "selected", "approved", "required", "accepted", and "permitted" mean "directed by the Contracting Officer", "requested by the Contracting Officer", and similar phrases.

However, no such implied meaning will be interpreted to extend the Contracting Officer's responsibility into Contractor's area of construction supervision.

E. Approve: Only the Contracting Officer, or an individual designated by her in writing, can approve or disapprove contract actions. Even if the specifications indicate that an individual other than the Contracting Officer (such as the "Approval Authorities" or "Contracting Officer’s Representative") will approve or disapprove an action, it is understood that only the Contracting Officer has this authority unless the individual is so designated by her in writing.

Even when an individual is so designated, the Contractor may appeal the action to the Contracting Officer and the Contracting Officer's decision shall be final. In no case will "approval" by the Contracting Officer be interpreted as a release of the Contractor from responsibility to fulfill requirements of contract documents.

F. Government Representative: A government employee, or contracted consultant, assigned to manage activities for the government during the course of the construction of the project, i.e., the Contracting Officer's representative on the site.

G. Project Site: The space available to Contractor for performance of the work, either exclusively or in conjunction with others performing other work as part of the project. The extent of project site is shown on drawings, and may or may not be identical with description of land upon which project is to be built.

H. Furnish: Except as otherwise defined in greater detail, term "furnish" is used to mean supply and deliver to project site, ready for unloading, unpacking, assembly, installation, etc., as applicable in each instance.

I. Install: Except as otherwise defined in greater detail, term "install" is used to describe operations at project site including unloading, unpacking, assembly, erection, placing, anchoring, applying, working to dimension, finishing, curing, protecting, cleaning and similar operations, as applicable in each instance.

J. Provide: Except as otherwise defined in greater detail, term "provide" means furnish and install, complete and ready for intended use, as applicable in each instance.

K. Installer: The term "Installer" is defined as the entity (person or firm) engaged by the Contractor or its subcontractor or sub-subcontractor for performance of a particular unit of work at the project site, including installation, erection, application and similar required operations.

Installers shall be skilled in the work they are to perform.

L. Specialist: The term "Specialist" means an individual or firm of established reputation (or, if newly organized, whose personnel have previously established a reputation in the same field), which is regularly engaged in, and which maintains a regular force of workmen skilled in either (as applicable) manufacturing or fabricating items required by the contract, installing items required by the contract, or otherwise performing work required by the contract. Where the contract specification requires installation by a specialist, that term shall also be deemed to mean either the manufacturer of the item, an individual or firm licensed by the manufacturer, or an individual or firm who will perform the work under the manufacturer's direct supervision.

M. Testing Laboratory: The terms "testing laboratory" or "independent laboratory" are interchangeable, and are defined as an independent entity engaged by the Contractor to perform specific inspections or tests of the work, either at project site or elsewhere; and to report results of those inspections or tests.

N. Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories: The term "nationally recognized testing laboratory

(NRTL)" shall mean a firm or organization which is recognized by OSHA in accordance with 29 CFR Part 1910.7 to test and approve (i.e., certify, label or list) equipment or materials as being safe for the intended use. Labeling and/or listing of products by NRTL's is acceptable wherever a reference to the UL or FMRC label is made in the specifications.

O. Label: The label must be provided by a nationally recognized testing laboratory. The contractor shall provide a statement from the testing laboratory attesting that the laboratory has been approved by OSHA to certify the category of product(s) being submitted for approval.

1.2 OVERLAPPING AND CONFLICTING ASSIGNMENTS:

A. Specifications and Drawings: Where there appear to be overlapping or conflicting requirements in the drawings and specifications, the order of precedence established by the clauses "Specifications and Drawings for Construction" and "Specifications and Drawings" of the Contract Clauses shall govern.

B. Industry Standards: Where compliance with 2 or more industry standards or sets of requirements is specified, and overlapping of those different standards or requirements establishes different or conflicting minimums or levels of quality, themost stringent requirement shall govern.

D. Contractor's Options: Except for overlapping or conflicting requirements, where more than one set of requirements are specified for a particular unit of work, option is intended to be Contractor's regardless of whether or not it is specifically indicated as such.

1.3 MINIMUM QUALITY/QUANTITY:

A. In every instance, the quality level or quantity shown or specified is intended to be the minimum for the work to be performed or provided. Except as otherwise specifically indicated, the actual work may either comply exactly with that minimum (within specified tolerances), or may exceed that minimum within reasonable limits. In complying with requirements, indicated numeric values are either minimums or maximums as noted or as appropriate for context of requirements. Refer instances of uncertainty to the Contracting Officer for decision before proceeding.

1.4 ASSIGNMENT OF SPECIALISTS:

A. In certain instances, specification text requires that specific work is to be assigned to specialists who must be engaged for performance of that work. Such assignments are special requirements over which the Contractor has no choice or option. These requirements should not be interpreted so as to conflict with applicable regulations, union jurisdiction settlements and similar conventions. Such assignments are intended to establish which party or entity involved in a specific unit of work is recognized as "expert" for the indicated construction processes or operations. Nevertheless, the final responsibility for fulfillment of the entire set of requirements remains with the Contractor.

1.5 DRAWING SYMBOLS

A. General: Except as otherwise indicated, graphic symbols used on drawings are those symbols recognized in the construction industry for purposes indicated. Where not otherwise noted, symbols are defined by "Architectural Graphic Standards", published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc., seventh edition.

B. Mechanical/Electrical Drawings: Graphic symbols used on mechanical/electrical drawings are generally aligned with symbols recommended by ASHRAE. Where appropriate, those symbols are supplemented by more specific symbols where appropriate as recommended by other recognized technical associations including ASME, ASPE, IEEE and similar organizations.

Refer instances of uncertainty to the Contracting Officer for clarification before proceeding.

1.6 INDUSTRY STANDARDS:

A. General Applicability of Standards: Except where more explicit or more stringent requirements are written directly into the contract documents, applicable standards of construction industry have same force and effect (and are made a part of contract documents by reference) as if copied directly into contract documents, or as if published copies were bound herewith, subject to the order of precedence previously stated.

B. Publication Dates: Refer to clause "Standard References" of Construction Contract Clauses.

Except as otherwise indicated, where compliance with an industry standard is required, comply with standard in effect as of Invitation for Bids.

1. Updated Standards: Submit a change order proposal where an applicable industry standard has been revised and reissued after the date of the contract documents and before the performance of the work affected. The Contracting Officer will decide whether to issue a change order to proceed with the updated standard.

C. Copies of Standards: Maintain copy of referenced standards, including those referenced in the referenced standards and where required manufacturer's instructions, where work is being performed, and make available to the Construction Engineer or inspector on request.

D. Abbreviations and Names: The following acronyms or abbreviations as referenced in contract documents are defined to mean the associated names. Both names and addresses are subject to change, and are believed to be, but are not assured to be, accurate and up-to-date as of date of contract documents:
