3.10.66 Unspecified Parts Mark Up

3.10.66.1 Unspecified parts include incidental parts and materials that cannot be anticipated and are necessary to complete a work directive, such as duct tape, rope, fittings, etc. Tools & equipment are not considered ‘unspecified parts’ and will not be reimbursed.

3.10.66.2 Vendor shall provide a bid for parts markup (a charge that is allowed per these specifications). A vendor must, however, obtain advanced approval from the Agency prior to purchasing any part more than $250.00. Vendors should provide the markup in terms of a decimal multiplier, as per the following example:

Example Markup bid = 15%

Place a decimal point in front of percentage digits to add to 1.

Example multiplier would be 1.15. Vendors should then multiply the multiplier (1.15) by the Estimated Cost for parts of $1,500 to arrive at the Total for Parts which would equal $1,725. The Vendor should enter $1,725.00 as total parts as the bid in Oasis.

The $1,500.00 is only an estimate used for evaluating bids. No guaranteed quantity of requested parts is assumed, provided, or implied.

Multiplier Example Meaning

1.0 Vendor sells parts to the Agency at Vendor’s

cost.

1.10 Vendor sells parts to the Agency at Vendor’s

cost plus a 10% markup.

1.20 Vendor sells parts to the Agency at its cost plus

a 20% markup.

3.10.66.3 All supplier/manufacturer receipts for parts shall be included with the invoice for verification of accurate markup.

3.10.66.4 Any delivery charges from the manufacturer to the vendor shall be included in the invoice. The Agency shall pay no more than the actual delivery charges.

3.10.66.5 The maximum Unspecified Parts Mark Up shall not exceed

30%.

3.10.67 Shipping Charges for Unspecified Parts

3.10.67.1 Shipping charges for unspecified parts are a no bid item and shall be reimbursed at actual cost. Shipping charges shall only be reimbursed provided the vendor submits the original shipping receipt with the invoice.

APPENDIX OF REFERENCED DOH SPECIFICATIONS

SECTION 601

STRUCTURAL CONCRETE

601.1 DESCRIPTION:

This work shall consist of furnishing and placing Portland cement concrete for structures, and incidental construction, in accordance with these specifications and in reasonably close conformity with the lines, grades and dimensions as shown on the Plans or established by the Engineer. All concrete shall be air-entrained. Classes of concrete shall be used as indicated below unless noted otherwise on the Plans:

● Class A concrete shall be used in railing, cribbing, precast shapes, for filler, and in steel grid floors.

● Class K concrete shall be used in all sidewalks, parapets, decks, and median barriers when they are part of the bridge superstructure.

● Class B concrete shall be used in all beams and girders, roadway sidewalks, columns, hammerhead piers, arch rings including ties and spandrel walls, rigid frames, box culverts, heavily reinforced abutments, retaining walls, footings, pedestals and other areas not specifically designated as to class of concrete.

● Class C concrete shall be used in massive footings and pedestals, massive pier shafts, gravity walls and, in general, for non-reinforced concrete or lightly reinforced concrete.

● Class D concrete shall be used as unformed and non-reinforced concrete for backfilling of any excavated pockets or voids on which footings are to be located.

● Class H concrete shall be used for bridge decks and other bridge elements when designated in the plans.

If the Contractor so elects, the Engineer may permit the use of a higher class concrete than the particular class designated for the work, in which event the higher class concrete shall meet the Specifications applicable without additional compensation. If the contractor uses a higher class concrete, and the strength specimens do not meet the minimum strength requirement of that higher class concrete, no penalty will be applied, provided that the strength specimens exceed the minimum strength requirement of the concrete that was originally designated for the work.

When called for on the Plans, an admixture of water-reducing retarder shall be added to all concrete so specified. A retarder may be used in other concrete at the Contractor’s option.

The work will be accepted in accordance with these Specifications and the applicable requirements of 105, 106, and 109.

All classes of concrete shall be designated as modified when using increased design strength. All classes of concrete shall be designated as architectural when using additional formwork as shown in Section 601.8.10. A hydration control admixture may be used at the Contractor’s option provided that the conditions in section 601.7 are met.

Shipping and Storage of Cement: Cement shall be shipped from retested and approved bins at the mill or distribution terminals, Cement stored by Contractor for a period longer than 90 days shall be retested before being used in the work. Cement failing to meet any of the specified requirements at any time prior to incorporation into the work will be rejected and shall be removed from the work. Cements of different brands, types, or from different mills shall be stored separately.

Shipping and Storage of Pozzolanic Additives: Pozzolanic additives shall be shipped from only those sources approved by the Division. Bulk Pozzolanic additives shall be stored at the job site in weatherproof bins. Pozzolanic additives from different sources or from different lots at the same source shall be stored separately.

701.1 PORTLAND CEMENT: Portland cement shall conform to the requirements of ASTM C 150, Type I.

702.1 FINE AGGREGATE FOR PORTLAND CEMENT CONCRETE:

702.1.1 General Requirement: Fine aggregate shall consist of natural sand, manufactured sand, or a combination thereof, conforming to the requirements of these Specifications.

702.1.2 Deleterious Substances: The Maximum percentages of deleterious substances shall not exceed the limits below.

MATERIAL

PERCENT BY

WEIGHT

Amount finer than No. 200 (75 µm) sieve for manufactured fine aggregate (determined by AASHTO T 11 and T 27) A manufactured fine aggregate is one which has been reduced in particle size by crushing.

Amount finer than No. 200 (75 µm) sieve for all other sands (determined by AASHTO T 11 and T 27)

Coal and other lightweight deleterious material (determined by MP 702.01.20)

Friable particles (determined by MP 703.01.20) 1

Larger percentages passing the No.200 (75 µm) sieve in the fine aggregate fraction will be permitted if the percent passing the No. 200 (75 µm) sieve in the coarse aggregate fraction (703.4) is less than the specified maximum. In no event, however, shall the percent passing the No. 200 (75 µm) sieve in the total concrete aggregate be greater than an amount which would exist if both aggregate fractions contained their specified maximum percentage passing the No. 20 (75 µm) sieve.

702.1.3 Soundness (Determined by NP 703.00.22): When the fine aggregate is subjected to five alternations of the sodium sulfate soundness test, the weighted loss shall not exceed 10 percent by weight.

702.1.4 Organic Impurities (Determined by AASHTO T21): When the fine aggregate is subjected to the organic impurities test, the color shall not be darker than the standard. In the event a color darker than the standard is produced, the acceptability of the material will be determined as specified in 702.1.5.

702.1.5 Mortar Strength (Determined by AASHTO T71): Fine aggregate failing the organic impurities test shall be subjected to the test for mortar making properties.

The fine aggregate shall develop a compressive strength at the age of seven days when using Type I or II cement, or at three days when using Type III cement, of no less than 90 percent of the strength developed by a mortar prepared in the same manner with the same cement and graded Ottawa sand having a fineness modulus of 2.4 plus or minus 0.10.

702.1.7 Uniformity of Grading: The gradation limits given in 702.1.6 represent the extreme limits which shall determine suitability of material from all sources of supply. The gradation of material from any one source, however, shall be reasonably uniform.

702.2 MORTAR SAND:

Sand (natural or manufactured) shall meet the requirement of AASHTO M 45, except delete 4.1 through 4.4 and substitute the following:

Aggregate for use in masonry mortar shall be graded within the following limits:

SIEVE SIZE PERCENT PASSING

No. 4 (3.75 mm) 100 No. 8 (2.36 mm) 90-100 No. 100 (150 µm) 0-30 No. 200 (75 µm) 0-10

715.11.4 Engineering Fabric For Subsurface Drainage: Engineering fabric for subsurface drainage shall meet the applicable requirements of AASHTO M 288, Section 7, Class

2. Additionally, the permittivity shall be a minimum of 0.2 sec-1 and the apparent opening size shall be no larger than No. 60 (250 µm) sieve.
