1.5.3 Shop Drawings
The term Shop Drawings means drawings, submitted to the Government by the Contractor, subcontractor, or any lower tier subcontractor pursuant to a construction contract, showing in detail the following items.
a. The proposed fabrication and assembly of structural elements and the installation (i.e., fit, and attachment details) of materials or equipment.
b. Drawings, diagrams, layouts, schematics, descriptive literature, illustrations, schedules, performance and test data, and similar materials furnished by the contractor to explain in detail specific portions of the work required by the contract. The Government may duplicate, use, and disclose in any manner and for any purpose shop drawings delivered under this contract.
If this contract requires shop drawings, the Contractor shall coordinate all such drawings, and review them for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with contract requirements and shall indicate its approval thereon as evidence of such coordination and review. Shop drawings submitted to the Contracting Officer without evidence of the Contractor's approval may be returned for resubmission. The Contracting Officer will indicate an approval or disapproval of the shop drawings and if not approved as submitted shall indicate the Government's reasons therefore.
Any work done before such approval shall be at the Contractor's risk.
Approval by the Contracting Officer shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for any errors or omissions in such drawings, nor from responsibility for complying with the requirements of this contract, except with respect to variations described and approved in accordance with paragraph below.
a. If shop drawings show variations from the contract requirements, the Contractor shall describe such variations in writing, separate from the drawings, at the time of submission. If the Contracting Officer approves any such variation, the Contracting Officer shall issue an appropriate contract modification, except that, if the variation is minor or does not involve a change in price or in time of performance, a modification need not be issued.
b. The Contractor shall submit to the Contracting Officer for approval three copies (unless otherwise indicated) of all shop drawings as called for under the various headings of these specifications. Two sets (unless otherwise indicated) of all shop drawings, will be retained by the Contracting Officer and one set will be returned to the Contractor. Upon completing the work under this contract, the Contractor shall furnish a complete set of all shop drawings as finally approved. These drawings shall show all changes and revisions made up to the time the equipment is completed and accepted.
1.5.4 As-Built Record Drawings
Whenever changes occur the contractor shall immediately mark-up the working copy of the contract drawings in red to show both changes and the actual installation in sufficient detail including accurate dimensioning as necessary to form a complete record of work accomplished. Accuracy of changed elements may also be accomplished by surveying. Sign and date each mark-up redline as it occurs. The marked-up working drawings shall be on site, complete, legible, precise and understandable to a CAD
SECTION 01 00 00 Page 5 operator who is unfamiliar with the project.
Upon completing the work under this contract, the Contractor shall use the marked-up working drawings and the approved shop drawings to produce the final As-Built Record Drawings. Furnish one complete set of As-Built Record Drawings in bound AutoCAD and pdf formats including all shop drawings as finally approved. These drawings shall show changes and revisions made up to the time the contract is completed and accepted.
Include all unusual or uncharted obstructions that were encountered in the contract area during construction. All sheets shall be annotated as As-Built Record Drawings in the revision section of the title block even if no changes occur during the contract. File naming of Record Drawing CADD files shall comply with the Hill AFB Facility Design Standard.

c. Particular attention should be given to work, which will be concealed and difficult to measure and record after construction, and work which may require servicing or replacement during the life of the facility.
The following are areas of concern that need special checking to ensure that the marked-up prints are complete and accurate:
1. Dimensions shall be clearly shown and accurately locate all changes in direction of utility lines. All surface or underground components such as valves, manholes, drain inlets, clean outs, meters, etc. shall be indicated. The description utilities placed shall include the actual quantity, size, and type of materials used.

The Air Force project managers will review the contractor's marked-up
SECTION 01 00 00 Page 6 drawings when verifying the performance shown by progress reports. If the drawings are not current, the progress report will be adjusted downward by the Civil Engineering project manager to reflect the contractor's non-compliance. Marked-up drawings will be submitted within five working days after substantial completion. Final payment will not be authorized until complete and accurate digital and hard copy redlined drawings are accepted by the Contracting Officer.
1.6 WORK SCHEDULING
Contractor shall allow in their planned work schedule for potential Government caused delays as follows: Allow for 5 calendar days where the contractor's construction activity is prohibited by Air Force Exercises or similar military events.

Government inspections and tests are for the sole benefit of the Government and do not;
(1) Relieve the Contractor of responsibility for providing adequate quality control measures;
(2) Relieve the Contractor of responsibility for damage to or loss of the material before acceptance;
(3) Constitute or imply acceptance; or
(4) Affect the continuing rights of the Government after acceptance of the completed work under paragraph (i) of this section.
The presence or absence of a Government inspector does not relieve the Contractor from any contract requirement, nor is the inspector authorized to change any term or condition of the specification without the Contracting Officer's written authorization.
The Contractor shall promptly furnish, at no increase in contract price, all facilities, labor, and material reasonably needed for performing such safe and convenient inspections and tests as may be required by the Contracting Officer. The Government may charge to the Contractor any additional cost of inspection or test when work is not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for inspection or test, or when prior rejection makes re-inspection or retest necessary. The Government shall perform all inspections and tests in a manner that will not unnecessarily delay the work. Special, full size and performance tests shall be performed as described in the contract.
The Contractor shall, without charge, replace or correct work found by the Government not to conform to contract requirements, unless in the public interest the Government consents to accept the work with an appropriate adjustment in contract price.

(2) Terminate for default the Contractor's right to proceed.
If, before acceptance of the entire work, the Government decides to examine already completed work by removing it or tearing it out, the Contractor, on request, shall promptly furnish all necessary facilities, labor, and material. If the work is found to be defective or nonconforming in any material respect due to the fault of the Contractor or its subcontractors, the Contractor shall defray the expenses of the examination and of satisfactory reconstruction. However, if the work is found to meet contract requirements, the Contracting Officer will make an equitable adjustment for the additional services involved in the examination and reconstruction, including, if completion of the work was thereby delayed, an extension of time.
Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the Government will accept, as promptly as practicable after completion and inspection, all work required by the contract or that portion of the work the Contracting Officer determines can be accepted separately.
