1.7 NOT USED

1.8 AS-BUILT DOCUMENTS FOR DESIGN BUILD PROJECTS

1.8.1 General

It is the scope of this section to provide guidance to the Contractor on preparing as-built drawings for design-build projects. An as-built drawing is a contract construction drawing revised to reflect the final as-built

September 2020 conditions of the project because of modifications, changes, corrections to the project design required during construction, submittals and extensions of design. The terms "drawings," "contract drawings," "drawing files," "working as-built drawings" and "final as-built drawings" refer to contract drawings that are revised to be used for the "RECORD DRAWING AS-BUILTS".

1.8.2 Withholding

Maintenance of working as-builts is considered part of the value of the facilities being constructed and will not be paid for as a separate line item. All costs in conjunction with periodic as-built maintenance and final preparation shall be considered a subsidiary obligation of the Contractor.

1.8.2.1 Failure to Maintain

If the Contractor fails to maintain the working as-built drawings as specified herein, the Contracting Officer will deduct from the monthly progress payment an amount up to 10% or which, in the Contracting Officer's judgment, represents the estimated cost of bringing the as-built documents up to date. This monthly deduction will continue until an agreement can be reached between the Contracting Officer and the Contractor regarding the accuracy and completeness of working as-built documents. This includes conversion of submittals and other miscellaneous documents.

1.8.2.2 As-Builts Prepared by Contractor

The Contractor is required to prepare and provide final as-built drawings utilizing the native files provided by the Government. If translation is required, the original design models (BIM or CAD) shall be updated to As- Built conditions and then appropriately translated. Updating translated drawings will not be accepted. The contractor shall update the CAD working as-built drawings, in accordance with paragraph "Maintenance of As-Built Drawings", on a quarterly basis and submit them for independent Government review. Both paper and electronic documents shall be available at all times and shall be provided promptly to the Contracting Officer's Representatives when requested. The Contractor shall be responsible for backup of electronic files during construction and for controlling release of information.

The Contractor shall include an activity in the cost-loaded schedule for the final As-Built drawing submittal in the amount defined in the following paragraph. See LRL Section 01 32 01.00 06, PROJECT SCHEDULE, para "Basis for Payment and Cost Loading". This amount shall be withheld and not paid until the final As-Built drawing submittal has been accepted by the Government.

Withholding for the final as-built drawing submittal shall be in the amount of: 1% for contract awards less than $5,000,000; $50,000 for contracts awarded from $5,000,000 to $10,000,000; or $100,000 for contracts awarded greater than $10,000,000. Withholding shall be withheld until the final as-built drawing submittal has been approved and accepted by the Government.

1.8.3 Maintenance of As-Built Drawings

The Contractor shall revise two (2) sets of paper drawings by red-line process to show the as-built conditions during the prosecution of the project. These as-built marked drawings shall be kept current on a weekly

September 2020 basis and available on the jobsite at all times. Changes in the work from the contract or additional information which is uncovered in the course of construction shall be accurately and neatly recorded as they occur by means of details and notes. Changes must be reflected on all sheets that the change affects. The working as-built marked drawings will be jointly reviewed for accuracy and completeness by the Contracting Officer and the Contractor before submission of each monthly pay estimate. The working as-built drawings shall show the following information if applicable to the project, but not be limited thereto:

a. The actual location, kinds and sizes of all sub-surface utility lines.

In order that the location of these lines and appurtenances may be determined in the event the surface openings or indicators become covered over or obscured, the as-built drawings shall show, by offset dimensions to two permanently fixed surface features, the end of each run including each change in direction. Valves, splice boxes and similar appurtenances shall be located by dimensioning along the utility run from a reference point. The average depth below the surface of each run shall also be recorded.

b. The location and dimensions of any changes within the building structure.

c. The correct, alignments, grade elevations, typical cross section, earthwork, structures, or utilities if any changes were made from contract plans.

d. Additional as-built information that exceeds the detail shown on the Contract Drawings. These as-built conditions include those that reflect structural details, fabrication, erection, installation plans and placing details, pipe sizes, insulation material, dimensions of equipment foundations and layouts, equipment, sizes, mechanical and electrical room layouts and other extensions of design, that were not shown in the original contract documents because the exact details were not known until after the time of approved shop drawings. It is recognized that the shop drawing submittals (revised showing as-built conditions) will serve as the as-built record without actual incorporation into the contract drawings. The final as-built construction drawing shall reference the shop drawing file that includes the as-built information. In turn, the shop drawing shall reference the applicable construction as-built drawing. All such shop drawing submittals must include the paper copy and PDF of the drawings.

e. Not used

f. Changes or modifications which result from the final inspection.

g. Not used

h. Where contract drawings present options, only the option selected for construction shall be shown on the final as-built drawings.

i. Systems designed or enhanced by the Contractor, such as HVAC controls, fire alarms, fire sprinklers, fire protection, fire detection and irrigation systems and other related systems are included in this project, the as-built drawings will include detailed information for

September 2020 all aspects of the systems including wiring, piping, and equipment drawings.

j. Typically, room numbers shown on the contract drawings are selected for design convenience and do not represent the actual numbers intended for use by the end user. Final as-built drawings shall reflect actual room numbers adopted by the end user.

k. Contract modifications (change order price) shall include the Contractor's cost to change working and final as-built drawings to reflect modifications and compliance with the following procedures:

(1) Directions in the modification for posting descriptive changes shall be followed.

(2) A Revision Triangle shall be placed at the location of each deletion.

(3) For new details or sections which are added to a drawing, a Revision Triangle shall be placed by the detail or section title.

(4) For minor changes, a Revision Triangle shall be placed by the area changed on the drawing (each location).

(5) For major changes to a drawing, a Revision Triangle shall be placed by the title of the affected plan, section, or detail at each location.

(6) For changes to schedules or drawings, a Revision Triangle shall be placed either by the schedule heading or by the change in the schedule.

1.8.4 Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CAD) Drawings

Only personnel proficient in the preparation of CAD drawings shall be employed to prepare and modify the construction drawings or prepare additional new drawings. Additions and corrections to the construction drawings shall be equal in quality to that of the originals. Line work, line weights, lettering, layering conventions, and symbols shall be the same as the original line work, line weights, lettering, layering conventions, and symbols. If additional drawings are required, they shall be prepared using the specified electronic file format applying the same guidance specified for original drawings. Three dimensional (3D) elements shall be placed in files in their proper locations when using 3D files with spatially correct elements. The title block and drawing border to be used for any new final as-built drawings shall be identical to that used on the contract drawings.
