1.3 PARTNERING

To enhance the potential for success on this contract, the Government encourages formation of a project partnership among all stakeholders (Government, Contractor, Subcontractors, Suppliers and Customer as appropriate). Project partnering provides a structured management approach to facilitate teamwork across contractual boundaries. This proposed partnership would strive to develop a cooperative working relationship to jointly establish and effectively reach mutual project execution goals. Participation in such a partnership will be totally voluntary. The partnering process would normally include an initial offsite kickoff meeting and follow-on maintenance meetings as agreed by the partnership. Costs of such meetings would be shared between the Government and the Contractor, based on a mutual agreement, without change to the contract price. The partnering process will in no way relax or stiffen the requirements of the contract, but will enhance the likelihood of success through improved working relationships.

1.26 MACHINERY AND MECHANIZED EQUIPMENT

Machinery and mechanized equipment used under this contract shall comply with the following:

a. When mechanized equipment is operated on floating plant, the Contractor shall provide positive and acceptable means of preventing this equipment from moving or falling into the water. The type of equipment addressed by this clause includes front-end loaders, bulldozers, trucks (both on- and off-road), backhoes, hydraulic excavators (track hoes), and similar equipment. If the Contractor plans to use such equipment on floating plant, an activity hazard analysis must be developed for this feature of work. The plan must include a detailed explanation of the type or types of physical barriers, curbs, structures, etc., which will be incorporated to protect the operator and prevent the equipment from entering the water. Nonstructural warning devices may be considered for situations where the use of structural barriers is determined to be impracticable. The activity hazard analysis must thoroughly address the procedure and be submitted to the Corps for review and acceptance prior to start of this feature of work.

b. The stability of crawler, truck, and wheel-mounted cranes shall be assured.

(1) The manufacturer's load-rating chart may be used to determine the maximum allowable working load for each particular crane's boom angle provided a test load, with a boom angle of 20 degrees, confirms the manufacturer's load-rating table.

(2) Stability tests are required if:

(i) there is no manufacturer's load-rating chart securely fixed to the operator's cab;

(ii) there has been a change in boom or other structural member;

or

(iii) there has been a change in the counterweight.

The test shall consist of lifting a load with the boom in the least stable undercarriage position and at an angle of 20 degrees above the horizontal. The test shall be conducted under close supervision on a firm, level surface. The load that tilts the machine shall be identified as the test load. The test load

SECTION 01 00 00.00 09 Page 14 moment (in ft-lbs) shall then be calculated by multiplying the horizontal distance (in feet) from the center of rotation of the machine to the test load, times the test load (in lbs).

Three-fourths of this test-load moment shall then be used to compute the maximum allowable operating loads for the boom at 20, 40, 60, and 80 degrees above horizontal. From these maximum allowable operating loads, curve shall be plotted and posted in the cab of the machine in sight of the operator. These values shall not be exceeded except in the performance test described below. The test load shall never exceed 100 percent of the manufacturer's maximum rated capacity.

(3) In lieu of the test and computations above, the crane may be load tested for stability at each of the four boom positions listed above.

c. Performance tests shall be performed in accordance with Section 18.G, "Machinery and Mechanized Equipment" of EM 385-1-1, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Safety and Health Requirements Manual, except as specified below. Performance tests shall be conducted after each stability test, when the crane is placed in service on a project, and at least every 12 months.

(1) When conducting a performance load test which is required of a new crane or a crane in which load sustaining parts have been altered, replaced, or repaired (excluding replacement of the rope), the test load shall be as specified in ASME/ANSI B30 Series. That is, for overhead, gantry, portal, pillar, tower, monorail, and underhung cranes, the test load shall not exceed 125 percent of the manufacturer's load rating capacity chart at the configuration of the test; and for hammerhead tower, mobile, and floating cranes and boom trucks, the test load shall not exceed 110 percent of the manufacturer's load rating capacity chart at the configuration of the test.

(2) When conducting a performance load test which is required because a crane is reconfigured, or reassembled after disassembly, or because the crane requires an annual load test, the test loads shall not exceed 100 percent of the manufacturer's load rating capacity chart at the configuration of the test.

(3) All load tests are required to be conducted in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.

d. Inspections shall be made which will ensure a safe and economical operation of both cranes and draglines with inspection documented.

Copies of the inspections and tests shall be available at the job site for review. All stability and performance tests on cranes and all complete dragline inspections shall be witnessed by the Contracting Officer or his authorized representative.

e. A complete dragline inspection shall be made:

(1) at least annually;

(2) prior to the dragline being placed in operation; and

(3) after the dragline has been out of service for more than 6 months.

SECTION 01 00 00.00 09 Page 15

f. All heavy equipment moved onto the worksite shall be inspected for compliance with this contract. The CEMVK-SO Inspection forms attached at the end of this section shall be completed by the Contractor. All completed forms, including abatement schedule of any violations, shall be maintained at the job site for continued review and update as needed.

1.28 PUBLIC AND PRIVATE UTILITIES

a. Unless otherwise specified, shown on the drawings, or stated in writing by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall not remove or disturb any public or private utilities. Such removals, alterations, and relocations, where necessary, will be made by others. The locations, if any, shown on the drawings for underground utilities are approximate only. The exact locations of such utilities shall be determined by the Contractor in the field prior to commencing construction operations in their vicinity.

b. The attention of the Contractor is directed to the possibility that he may encounter, within the right-of-way limits, utilities, some of which may be buried, and the existence of which is presently not known. Should any such utilities be encountered, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer so that he may determine whether they shall be removed, relocated, or altered. After such determination is made, the Contractor shall, if so directed by the Contracting Officer, remove, relocate, or alter them as required, and an equitable adjustment will be made in accordance with the Contract Clause CHANGES. In event the Contracting Officer arranges for such removals, alterations, or relocations to be performed by others, the Contractor shall cooperate with such others during the latter's removal, alteration, or relocation operations in accordance with the Contract Clause OTHER CONTRACTS.

1.29 DAMAGE TO WORK

a. The responsibility for damage to any part of the permanent work shall be as set forth in the Contract Clause PERMITS AND RESPONSIBILITIES. However, if, in the judgment of the Contracting Officer, any part of the permanent work performed by the Contractor is damaged by flood (see Section 00 80 00.00 09 SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS, paragraph PHYSICAL DATA, subparagraph FLOODS) or earthquake, which damage is not due to the failure of the Contractor to take reasonable precautions or to exercise sound engineering and construction practices in the conduct of the work, the Contractor shall make repairs as ordered by the Contracting Officer and full compensation for such repairs to permanent work will be made at the applicable contract unit or lump sum prices as fixed and established

SECTION 01 00 00.00 09 Page 16 in the contract. If, in the opinion of the Contracting Officer, for any part of such damaged permanent work, there is no applicable contract unit or lump sum price, then an equitable adjustment pursuant to the Contract Clause CHANGES will be made as full compensation for the repairs for that part of the permanent work for which there is no applicable contract unit or lump sum price.

b. Except as herein provided, damage to all work (including temporary construction), utilities, materials, equipment, and plant shall be repaired to the satisfaction of the Contracting Officer, at the Contractor's expense, regardless of the cause of such damage.
