Drawings and general provisions of Contract apply to the Work of this section.

DEFINITIONS:

General Explanation: A substantial amount of specification language constitutes definitions for terms found in other Sections, including the drawings. (Drawings must be recognized as diagrammatic in nature and not completely descriptive of the requirements indicated thereon.) Certain terms used in the Contract Documents are defined in this section. Definitions and explanations in this section are not necessarily either complete nor exclusive, but are general for the work to the extent they are not stated more explicitly in another element of the Contract Documents. The CONTRACTOR is responsible for clarifying all definitions and terms prior to bid submittal. The CONSULTANT’s interpretation of the specification and definitions will be final and binding.

General Requirements: The provisions or requirements of "00---" and "01---" sections apply to entire work of Contract and, where so indicated, to other elements which are included in project.

Directed, Requested, etc.: Where not otherwise explained, terms such as "directed," "requested," "authorized," "selected," "approved," "required," "accepted," and "permitted" mean "directed by CONSULTANT," "requested by CONSULTANT," and similar phrases. However, no such implied meaning will be interpreted to extend CONSULTANT’s responsibility into CONTRACTOR’s responsibility for construction supervision.

Approve: Where used in conjunction with CONSULTANT’s response to submittals, requests, applications, inquiries, reports and claims by CONTRACTOR, the meaning of term "approved" will be held to limitations of CONSULTANT’s responsibilities and duties as specified in General and Supplementary Conditions. In no case will "approval" by CONSULTANT be interpreted as a release of CONTRACTOR from responsibilities to fulfill requirements of Contract Documents.

Project Site: The term "project site" is defined as 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 may be shown on the drawings, and may or may not be identical with the actual area in which the project occurs.
