SUMMARY
1.1
SCOPE OF WORK

1.2
PROJECT INFORMATION
A. The drawings and specifications are complementary to each other. Drawings are graphic
means of showing work to be done. They are particularly suited to show where materials
are located. Thus, drawings exist essentially to show dimension, location and placement.
Not all works however can be presented in the drawings. Generalized works are usually
in statement form hence the Contractor is required to read the specifications carefully.
Specifications on the other hand are used to describe the materials, construction
techniques, samples, shop drawings, guarantees and other contract requirements.
Together the drawings and specifications are used to inform the Contractor.
B. The Contractor shall check all drawings, furnished him immediately upon their receipt
and shall promptly notify the Architect of any discrepancies. Dimensions marked on the
drawings shall be followed in preference to scale measurements. Large scale drawings
and shall govern small scale drawings. The Contractor shall compare all drawings and
verify the figures before laying out the work and will be responsible for any errors which
might have been avoided thereby.
C. All drawings issued for construction to General Contractor/s, Sub-Contractors shall be
furnished solely by the Architect through the Project Manager.
1.3
LANGUAGE OF THE SPECIFICATIONS
A. The Specifications are of the abbreviated type and many include incomplete sentences.
The selection of structure depends on the underlying principles of specifications:
•
•
•
That the Technical Specifications are only one part of the Contract Documents;
That the Contract is between the Owner and the General Contractor; and
That the General Contractor is the only party responsible for completing the work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
B. Therefore, only the General Contractor is referred to in the specifications so as not to
violate the intent of the Contract and so as not to undermine the proper chain of
command.
C. In certain cases omission of the phrase “The Contractor shall” is intentional since the
whole Specifications is directed to the General Contractor.
D. Where “as directed,” “as required,” “as permitted,” “as authorized,” “as approved,” “as
accepted” or words of similar import are used, it shall be understood that the direction,
requirement, permission, authorization, approval or acceptance of the Architect is
intended, unless otherwise specified.
E. As used herein, “provided” shall be understood to mean “provided complete in place”
that is, “furnished and installed.”
