Any portion of the specification sections proposed by the Contractor to be removed or omitted for this project shall be indicated by a strikethrough of the text, but leaving the text in the document until the 100% final document submittal. Any text proposed to be added to the specification sections by the Contractor shall be indicated by underlining the text.

2.8.3. Specifications shall include the Davis-Monthan AFB standard section, "Section 01010, Summary of Work," edited by the designer as required for this project. The Air Force may furnish the unedited master section to the designer.

2.8.4. The Contract Specifications shall clearly define the type, quality, or other criteria relevant to all required work for this project. Specifications shall be prepared in the Construction Standards Institute (CSI) format, at a level of detail appropriate to the subject, in accordance with accepted professional practice.

To specify by manufacturer's name or catalog number, include at least three manufacturers whose products are essentially equal in quality, function, and cost; and then add the statement "or approved equal." If less than three manufacturers are known, specify the known information as a minimum standard of quality, type, color, etc.; and add the statement "or approved equal."

To specify a single manufacturer and not allow submittal of proposed "equals," provide a brief written statement to the Air Force, separate from the specification, explaining the need for a single, specific product.

2.8.6. If tests are necessary, the specifications shall define the required criteria, number and type of tests to be made, and licensing or certifying requirements of the testing agency.
