About this file

The document is a comprehensive set of construction and technical specifications for the Glendale Fire Station project, prepared by Walton County, Florida. The project involves constructing a new 8,120-square-foot pre-fabricated and engineered steel and wood fire station for Walton County Fire Rescue. The project site is located northeast of the intersection of SR-83 and County Highway 2 in Glendale, situated on approximately 7.58 acres of currently undeveloped land. The specifications cover a wide range of technical aspects including sitework, asphalt paving, concrete work, building construction, mechanical systems, and site improvements.

The technical specifications detail requirements for materials, installation methods, quality control, testing, and performance standards across multiple construction disciplines. While specific bid or pricing details are not prominently featured, the documents indicate a comprehensive approach to project delivery, including provisions for submittals, product substitutions, warranties, and project closeout procedures. Water and sewer services are currently not available to the site, which may impact infrastructure development costs. The specifications suggest a detailed, professional approach to constructing a modern fire station facility with specific technical requirements for each aspect of the construction process.

11.2 The CONTRACTOR will comply with all applicable law, ordinances, rules, regulations, and orders of any public body having jurisdiction. The CONTRACTOR will erect and maintain, as required by the conditions and progress of the WORK, all necessary safeguards for safety and protection. The CONTRACTOR will notify OWNERS of adjacent utilities when prosecution of the WORK may affect them. The CONTRACTOR will remedy all damage, injury or loss to any property caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or part, by the CONTRACTOR, any SUBCONTRACTOR or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone of whose acts any of them may be liable, except damage or loss attributable to the fault of the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS or the acts

WALTON COUNTY, FLORIDA - PROJECT #50150622 General Conditions: Page 8 of 15 or omissions of the OWNERS, of the ENGINEER or anyone employed by either of them or anyone for whose acts either of them may be liable, and not attributable, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, to the fault or negligence of the CONTRACTOR.

11.3 In emergencies affecting the safety of persons or the WORK or property at the site or adjacent thereto, the CONTRACTOR, without special instructions or authorization from the ENGINEER or OWNERS, shall act to prevent threatened damage, injury or loss. The CONTRACTOR will give the ENGINEER prompt WRITTEN NOTICE of any significant changes in the WORK or deviations from the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS caused thereby, and a CHANGE ORDER shall thereupon be issued covering the changes and deviations involved.

12. SUPERVISION BY CONTRACTOR

12.1 The CONTRACTOR will supervise and direct the WORK. He will be solely responsible for the means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures of construction. The CONTRACTOR will employ and maintain on the WORK a qualified supervisor or superintendent who shall have been designated in writing by the CONTRACTOR as the CONTRACTOR'S representative at the site.

The supervisor shall be present on the site at all times as required to perform adequate supervision and coordination of the

WORK.

13. CHANGES IN THE WORK

13.1 The OWNERS may at any time, as the need arises, order changes within the scope of the WORK without invalidating the Agreement. If such changes increase or decrease the amount due under the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, or in the time required for performance of the WORK, an equitable adjustment shall be authorized by CHANGE ORDER.

13.2 The ENGINEER, also, may at any time, by issuing a FIELD ORDER, make changes in the details of the WORK. The CONTRACTOR shall proceed with the performance of any changes in the WORK so ordered by the ENGINEER unless the CONTRACTOR believes that such FIELD ORDER entitles the CONTRACTOR to a change in CONTRACT PRICE or TIME, or both, in which event the CONTRACTOR shall give the ENGINEER WRITTEN NOTICE thereof within seven (7) days after the receipt of the ordered change. Thereafter the CONTRACTOR shall document the basis for the change in CONTRACT PRICE or TIME within thirty (30) days.

WALTON COUNTY, FLORIDA - PROJECT #50150622 General Conditions: Page 10 of 15

16.2 All removal and replacement WORK shall be done at the CONTRACTOR'S expense. If the CONTRACTOR does not take action to remove such rejected WORK within ten (10) days after receipt of WRITTEN NOTICE, the OWNERS may remove such WORK and store the materials at the expense of the CONTRACTOR.

17.1 The CONTRACTOR shall promptly, and before such conditions are disturbed, except in the event of an emergency, notify the OWNERS by WRITTEN NOTICE of:

17.2 The OWNERS shall promptly investigate the conditions, and if it is found that such conditions do so materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in the cost of, or in the time required for, performance of the WORK, an equitable adjustment shall be made and the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS shall be modified by a CHANGE ORDER.

If the unpaid balance of the CONTRACT PRICE exceeds the direct and indirect costs of completing the project, including compensation for additional professional services, such excess SHALL BE PAID TO THE CONTRACTOR. If such costs exceed such unpaid balance, the CONTRACTOR will pay the difference to the OWNERS. Such costs incurred by the OWNERS will be determined by the ENGINEER and incorporated in a CHANGE ORDER.

18.3 Where the CONTRACTOR'S services have been so terminated by the OWNERS, said termination shall not affect any right of the OWNERS against the CONTRACTOR then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or payment of monies by the OWNERS due the CONTRACTOR will not release the CONTRACTOR from compliance with the CONTRACT

DOCUMENTS.

18.4 After ten (10) days from delivery of a WRITTEN NOTICE to the CONTRACTOR and the ENGINEER, the OWNERS may, without cause and without prejudice to any other right or remedy, elect to abandon the PROJECT and terminate the CONTRACT. In such case the CONTRACTOR shall be paid for all WORK executed and any expense sustained plus reasonable profit.

In addition and in lieu of terminating the CONTRACT, if the ENGINEER has failed to act on a request for payment or if the OWNERS has failed to make any payment as aforesaid, the CONTRACTOR may upon ten (10) days written notice to the OWNERS and the ENGINEER stop the WORK until paid all amounts then due, in which event and upon resumption of the WORK CHANGE ORDERS shall be issued for adjusting the CONTRACT PRICE or extending the CONTRACT TIME or both to compensate for the costs and delays attributable to the stoppage of the WORK.

18.6 If the performance of all or any portion of the WORK is suspended, delayed, or interrupted as a result of a failure of the OWNERS or ENGINEER to act within the time specified in the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, or if no time is specified, within a reasonable time, an adjustment in the CONTRACT PRICE or an extension of the CONTRACT TIME, or both, shall be made by CHANGE ORDER to compensate the CONTRACTOR for the costs and delays necessarily caused by the failure of the OWNERS or ENGINEER.

SECTION 01090-DEFINITIONS AND STANDARDS

PART 1 - GENERAL

RELATED DOCUMENTS:

Drawings and general provisions of Contract, including General and Special Conditions, apply to work of this section.

DEFINITIONS:

GENERAL EXPLANATION: A substantial amount of specification language constitutes definitions for terms found in other contract documents, including drawings which must be recognized as diagrammatic in nature and not completely descriptive of requirements indicated thereon. Certain terms used in contract documents are defined generally in this article. Definitions and explanations of this section are not necessarily either complete or exclusive, but are general for the work extent not stated more explicitly in another provision of contract documents.

INDICATED: The term "Indicated" is a cross-reference to graphics, 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.

DIRECTED, REQUESTED, ETC.: Where not otherwise explained, terms such as "directed", "requested", "authorized", "selected", "approved", "required", "accepted", and "permitted" mean "directed by Engineer", "requested by Engineer", etc. However, no such implied meaning will be interpreted to extend Engineer's responsibility into Contractor's area of construction supervision.

APPROVE: Where used in conjunction with Engineer's response to submittals, requests, applications, inquiries, reports and claims by Contractor, the meaning of term "approved" will be held to limitations of Engineer's responsibilities and duties as specified in General and Special Conditions. In no case will "approval" by Engineer be interpreted as a release of Contractor from responsibilities to fulfill requirements of contract documents.

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.

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

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.

WALTON COUNTY, FLORIDA - PROJECT #50150622 DEFINITIONS AND STANDARDS-Page 2 of 4

It is a general requirement that such entities (Installers) be expert in operations they are engaged to perform.

TESTING LABORATORY: An independent entity engaged to perform specific inspections of tests of work, either at project site or elsewhere; and to report and (if required) interpret results of those inspections or tests.

SPECIFICATION EXPLANATIONS:

SPECIFICATION CONTENT: Because of methods by which this project specification has been produced, certain general characteristics of content, and conventions in use of language are explained as follows:

SPECIFYING METHODS: The techniques or methods of specifying to record requirements varies throughout text, and may include "prescriptive", "open generic-descriptive", "compliance with standards", "performance", "proprietary", or a combination of these.
