A. Specification/Project Manual Format: The Specifications are organized into Divisions and

Sections using the 50-division format and CSI/CSC's "MasterFormat" numbering system.

1. Section Identification: The Specifications use section numbers and titles to help cross-referencing in the Contract Documents. Sections in the Specifications/Project Manual are in numeric sequence; however, the sequence may be incomplete. Consult the table of contents at the beginning of the Specifications/Project Manual to determine numbers and names of sections in the Contract Documents.

2. Page Numbering: The pages of the Specifications/Project Manual are numbered sequentially in the upper right hand corner (header). Individual sections may or may not include subordinate section page numbering at the bottom of the page (footer).

a. The words "shall," "shall be," or "shall comply with," depending on the context, are implied where a colon (:) is used within a sentence or phrase.

1.6 ELECTRONIC DATA

A. General: Electronic copies of CAD Drawings of the Contract Drawings may or may not be provided by the COTR for Contractor's use in preparing submittals. If provided, however, electronic data is non-contractural. It is provided for reference purposes only for the convenience of the Contractor and may not be used for any other facility other than that for which it was prepared. Neither the Architect/Engineer nor the Smithsonian Institution guarantee that the files are complete, current, and accurate; thus use of electronic data is at the Contractor’s risk. By accepting these CAD files, the Contractor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless both the Architect/Engineer, its consultants, and the Smithsonian Institution from any and all claims, damages, losses and expenses arising from the use of the electronic data.
