1.3 SPECIFICATION EXPLANATIONS

1.3.1 General:

This article is provided to help the user of these specifications to more readily understand the format, language, implied requirements and similar conventions of content. None of these explanations will be interpreted to modify the substance of the requirements.

1.3.2 Specification Format:

1.3.3 Imperative Language:

Imperative language is used generally in the specifications. Requirements expressed imperatively are to be performed by the Contractor.

1.3.4 Specification Content Conventions:

Overlapping Requirements: Where compliance with two or more industry standards or sets of requirements is specified, and overlapping of those requirements also establishes different or conflicting minimums or levels of quality, the more stringent requirement will be enforced unless the Contract Documents specifically indicate otherwise.

Refer apparently equal but different requirements and uncertainties as to which level of quality is required to the Owner’s Representative for decision before proceeding.

In certain circumstances, language used in specifications and other Contract Documents is of the abbreviated type. Implied words and meanings will be appropriately interpreted by the Owner’s Representative. Singular words will be interpreted as plural, and plural words will be interpreted as singular where applicable and where the full context of the Contract Documents so indicates.

Specialists: In certain circumstances the specification requires or implies that specific elements of the Work be assigned to specialists or expert entities who must be engaged to perform that element of the work. Such assignments are special requirements over which the Contractor has no choice or option. They are intended to establish which party or entity involved in a specific element of the Work is considered as being sufficiently experienced in the indicated construction processes or operations to be recognized as "expert" in those processes or operations. Nevertheless, the ultimate responsibility for fulfilling all contract requirements remains with the Contractor.

These requirements should not be interpreted to conflict with the enforcement of the building codes and similar regulations governing the Work. They are also not intended to interfere with local trade union jurisdictional settlements and similar conventions.

Trades: The use of certain titles such as "carpentry" in the specification is not intended to imply that the work must be performed by accredited or unionized individuals of a corresponding generic name, such as "carpenter". It also is not intended to imply that the requirements specified apply exclusively to trade persons of that corresponding generic name.
