GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION
CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
1.1 DEFINITIONS
1.1.1 THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
The Contract Documents consist of the Agreement, the
Conditions of the Contract (General, Supplementary and
other Conditions), the Drawings, the Specifications, all
Addenda issued prior to execution of the Contract, and
all Modifications thereto. A Modification is (1) a written
amendment to the Contract signed by both parties, (2)
a Change Order, (3) a written interpretation issued by
the Architect pursuant to Subparagraph 1.2.5, or (4) a
written order for a minor change in the Work issued by
the Architect pursuant to Paragraph 12.3. A Modification
may be made only after execution of the Contract.
1.1.2 THE CONTRACT
The Contract Documents form the Contract. The Contract
represents the entire and integrated agreement between
the parties hereto and supersedes all prior negotiations,
representations, or agreements, either written or oral,
including the bidding documents. The Contract may be
amended or modified only by a Modification as defined
in Subparagraph 1.1.1.
1.1.3 THE WORK
The term Work includes all labor necessary to produce
the construction required by the Contract Documents,
and all materials and equipment incorporated or to be
incorporated in such construction.
1.1.4 THE PROJECT
The Project is the total construction designed by the
Architect, of which the Work performed under the Con-
tract Documents may be the whole or a part.
EXECUTION, CORRELATION, INTENT AND
INTERPRETATIONS
1.2.1 The Contract Documents shall be signed in not less
than triplicate by the Owner and Contractor. If either the
Owner or the Contractor or both do not sign the Condi-
tions of the Contract, Drawings, Specifications, or any
of the other Contract Documents, the Architect shall
identify them.
1.2.2 By executing the Contract, the Contractor represents
that he has visited the site, familiarized himself with the
local conditions under which the Work is to be per-
formed, and correlated his observations with the require-
ments of the Contract Documents.
1.2.3 The Contract Documents are complementary, and
what is required by any one shall be as binding as if
required by all. The intention of the Documents is to
include all labor, materials, equipment and other items
as provided in Subparagraph 4.4.1 necessary for the
proper execution and completion of the Work, It is not
intended that Work not covered under any heading,
section, branch, class or trade of the Specifications shall
be supplied unless it is required elsewhere in the Contract
Documents or is reasonably inferable therefrom as being
necessary to produce the intended results. Words which
have well-known technical or trade meanings are used
herein in accordance with such recognized meanings.
1.2.4 The organization of the Specifications into divi-
sions, sections and articles, and the arrangement of
Drawings shall not control the Contractor in dividing
the Work among Subcontractors or in establishing the
extent of Work to be performed by any trade.
1.2.5 Written interpretations necessary for the proper
execution or progress of the Work, in the form of draw-
ings or otherwise, will be issued with reasonable prompt-
ness by the Architect and in accordance with any
schedule agreed upon. Either party to the Contract may
make written request to the Architect for such inter-
pretations. Such interpretations shall be consistent with
and reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents,

ments, the Contractor will be furnished, free of charge,
all copies of Drawings and Specifications reasonably nec-
essary for the execution of the Work.

2.2.2 The Architect will be the Owner's representative
during construction and until final payment. The Architect
will have authority to act on behalf of the Owner to the
extent provided in the Contract Documents, unless other-
wise modified by written instrument which will be shown
to the Contractor. The Architect will advise and consult
with the Owner, and all of the Owner's instructions to
the Contractor shall be issued through the Architect.
2.2.3 The Architect shall at all times have access to the
Work wherever it is in preparation and progress. The
Contractor shall provide facilities for such access so the
Architect may perform his functions under the Contract
Documents.
2.2.4 The Architect will make periodic visits to the site
to familiarize himself generally with the progress and
quality of the Work and to determine in general if the
Work is proceeding in accordance with the Contract
Documents. On the basis of his on-site observations as
an architect, he will keep the Owner informed of the
progress of the Work, and will endeavor to guard the
Owner against defects and deficiencies in the Work of the
Contractor. The Architect will not be required to make
exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the
quality or quantity of the Work. The Architect will not be
responsible for construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences or procedures, or for safety precautions and
programs in connection with the Work, and he will not
be responsible for the Contractor's failure to carry out
the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
.2.2.5 Based on such observations and the Contractor's
Applications for Payment, the Architect will determine
the amounts owing to the Contractor and will issue
Certificates for Payment in such amounts, as provided
in Paragraph 9.4.
2.2.6 The Architect will be, in the first instance, the
interpreter of the requirements of the Contract Docu-
ments and the judge of the performance thereunder by
both the Owner and Contractor. The Architect will,
within a reasonable time, render such interpretations as
he may deem necessary for the proper execution or prog-
ress of the Work.
2.2.7 Claims, disputes and other matters in question
between the Contractor and the Owner relating to the
execution or progress of the Work or the interpretation
of the Contract Documents shall be referred initially to
the Architect for decision which he will render in writing
within a reasonable time.
2.2.8 All interpretations and decisions of the Architect
shall be consistent with the intent of the Contract Docu-
ments. In his capacity as interpreter and judge, he will
exercise his best efforts to insure faithful performance by
both the Owner and the Contractor and will not show
partiality to either.
2.2.9 The Architect's decisions in matters relating to
rrtistic effect will be final if consistent with the intent of
the Contract Documents.
2.2.10 Any claim, dispute or other matter that has been
eferred to the Architect, except those relating to artistic
!ffect as provided in Subparagraph 2.2.9 and except any
which have been waived by the making or acceptance
of final payment as provided in Subparagraphs 9.7.5 and
9.7.6, shall be subject to arbitration upon the written
demand of either party. However, no demand for arbitra-
tion of any such claim, dispute or other matter may be
made until the earlier of:
2.2.10.1 The date on which the Architect has rendered
his written decision, or
.2 the tenth day after the parties have presented
their evidence to the Architect or have been
given a reasonable opportunity to do so, if the
Architect has not rendered his written decision
by that date.
2.2.11 If a decision of the Architect is made in writing
and states that it is final but subject to appeal, no demand
for arbitration of a claim, dispute or other matter covered
by such decision may be made later than thirty days after
the date on which the party making the demand received
the decision. The failure to demand arbitration within
said thirty days' period will result in the Architect's deci-
sion becoming final and binding upon the Owner and the
Contractor. If the Architect renders a decision after arbi-
tration proceedings have been initiated, such decision
may be entered as evidence but will not supersede any
arbitration proceedings unless the decision is acceptable
to the parties concerned.
2.2.12 The Architect will have authority to reject V1/ork
which does not conform to the Contract Documents.
Whenever, in his reasonable opinion, he considers it
necessary or advisable to insure the proper implementa-
tion of the intent of the Contract Documents, he will
have authority to require special inspection or testing of
the Work in accordance with Subparagraph 7.8.2 whether
or not such Work be then fabricated, installed or com-
pleted. However, neither the Architect's authority to act
under this Subparagraph 2.2.12, nor any decision made
by him in good faith either to exercise or not to exercise
such authority, shall give rise to any duty or responsibility
of the Architect to the Contractor, any Subcontractor,
any of their agents or employees, or any other person
performing any of the Work.
2.2.13 The Architect will review Shop Drawings and
Samples as provided in Subparagraphs 4.13.1 through
4.13.8 inclusive.
2.2.14 The Architect will prepare Change Orders in ac-
cordance with Article 12, and will have authority to order
minor changes in the Work as provided in Subparagraph
12.3.1.
2.2.15 The Architect will conduct inspections to deter-
mine the dates of Substantial Completion and final com-
pletion, will receive and review written guarantees and
related documents required by the Contract and assembled
by the Contractor and will issue a final Certificate for
Payment.
2.2.16 If the Owner and Architect agree, the Architect
will provide one or more Full-Time Project Representatives
to assist the Architect in carrying out his responsibilities
at the site. The duties, responsibilities and limitations of
authority of any such Project Representative shall be as
set forth in an exhibit to be incorporated in the Contract
Documents.

ments or in the Instructions to Bidders, the Contractor,
as soon as practicable after the award of the Contract,
shall furnish to the Architect in writing for acceptance by
the Owner and the Architect a list of the names of the
Subcontractors proposed for the principal portions of the

tor in writing if either the owner or the Architect, after

contractor on such list and does not accept him. Failure
of the Owner or Architect to make objection promptly to
any Subcontractor on the list shall constitute acceptance
of such Subcontractor.

5.3.1 All work performed for the Contractor by a Sub-
contractor shall be pursuant to an appropriate agree-
ment between the Contractor and the Subcontractor (and
where appropriate between Subcontractors and Sub-
subcontractors) which shall contain provisions that:
.1 preserve and protect the rights of the Owner and
the Architect under the Contract with respect to

ance with the requirements of the Contract
Documents;
.3 require submission to the Contractor of applica-
tions for payment under each subcontract to
which the Contractor is a party, in reasonable
time to enable the Contractor to apply for pay-
ment in accordance with Article 9;
.4 require that all claims for additional costs, exten-
sions of time, damages for delays or otherwise
with respect to subcontracted portions of the
Work shall be submitted to the Contractor (via
any Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor where
appropriate) in sufficient time so that the Con-
tractor may comply in the manner provided in
the Contract Documents for like claims by the
Contractor upon the Owner;
.5 waive all rights the contracting parties may have
against one another for damages caused by fire
or other perils covered by the property insurance
described in Paragraph 11.3, except such rights as
they may have to the proceeds of such insurance
held by the Owner as trustee under Paragraph
11.3; and
.6 obligate each Subcontractor specifiically to con-
sent to the provisions of this Paragraph 5.3.

The Contractor shall also require each Subcontractor to
make similar payments to his subcontractors.
5.4.2 If the Architect fails to issue a Certificate for Pay-
ment for any cause which is the fault of the Contractor
and not the fault of a particular Subcontractor, the Con-
tractor shall pay that Subcontractor on demand., made at
any time after the Certificate for Payment should other-
wise have been issued., for his Work to the extent corn-
pleted, less the retained percentage.
5.4.3 The Contractor shall pay each Subcontractor a just
share of any insurance moneys received by the Contractor
under Article 11, and he shall require each Subcontractor
to make similar payments to his subcontractors.
5.4.4 The Architect may, on request and at his discretion,
furnish to any Subcontractor, if practicable, information
regarding percentages of completion certified to the Con-
tractor on account of Work done by such Subcontractors.

work, and shall properly connect and coordinate his
Work with theirs.

proper execution or results upon the work of any other
separate contractor, the Contractor shall inspect and
promptly report to the Architect any apparent discrepan-
cies or defects in such work that render it unsuitable for
such proper execution and results. Failure of the Con-
tractor so to inspect and report shall constitute an accept-
ance of the other contractor's work as fit and proper to
receive his Work, except as to defects which may develop
in the other separate contractor's work after the execution
of the Contractor's Work.

an arbitration proceeding on account of any damage
alleged to have been so sustained, the Owner shall notify

the work of any other contractor except with the written
consent of the Architect.
6.3.2 Any costs caused by defective or ill-timed work
shall be borne by the party responsible therefor.
6.4 OWNER'S RIGHT TO CLEAN UP
6.4.1 If a dispute arises between the separate contractors
as to their responsibility for cleaning up as required by
Paragraph 4.16, the Owner may clean up and charge the
cost thereof to the several contractors as the Architect

reasonable time after the first observance of such injury
or damage.

formance of the Contract and the payment of all obliga-

tract Documents and the rights and remedies available
thereunder shall be in addition to and not a limitation
of any duties, obligations, rights and remedies otherwise
imposed or available by law.
7.7 ROYALTIES AND PATENTS
7.7.1 The Contractor shall pay all royalties and license
fees. He shall defend all suits or claims for infringement
of any patent rights and shall save the Owner harmless
from loss on account thereof, except that the Owner
shall be responsible for all such loss when a particular de-
sign, process or the product of a particular manufacturer
or manufacturers is specified, but if the Contractor has
reason to believe that the design, process or product
specified is an infringement of a patent, he shall be re-
sponsible for such loss unless he promptly gives such in-
formation to the Architect.

regulations or orders of any public authority having juris-
diction require any Work to be inspected, tested or ap-
proved, the Contractor shall give the Architect timely no-
tice of its readiness and of the date arranged so the
Architect may observe such inspection, testing or ap-
proval. The Contractor shall bear all costs of such inspec-
tions, tests and approvals unless otherwise provided.

from the Owner, instruct the Contractor to order such
special inspection, testing or approval, and the Con-
tractor shall give notice as in Subparagraph 7.8.1. If such
special inspection or testing reveals a failure of the Work
to comply (1) with the requirements of the Contract

tractor shall relieve the Contractor from his obligations
to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents.

respect to the Architect's decisions on matters relating
to artistic effect, and except for claims which have been
waived by the making or acceptance of final payment as
provided by Subparagraphs 9.7.5 and 9.7.6, shall be de-
eded by arbitration in accordance with the Construction
Industry Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration
Association then obtaining unless the parties mutually
agree otherwise. This agreement to arbitrate shall be
specifically enforceable under the prevailing arbitration
law. The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final,
and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance with
applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
7,10.2 Notice of the demand for arbitration shall be filed
in writing with the other party to the Contract and with
the American Arbitration Association, and a copy shall
be filed with the Architect. The demand for arbitration

paragraphs 2.2.10 and 2.2.11 where applicable, and in
all other cases within a reasonable time after the claim,
dispute or other matter in question has arisen, and in no
event shall it be made after the date when institution of
legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim,
dispute or other matter in question would be barred by
the applicable statute of limitations.
7.10.3 The Contractor shall carry on the Work and main-
tain the progress schedule during any arbitration pro-

in writing.
8.1 DEFINITIONS
8.1.1 The Contract Time is the period of time allotted in
the Contract Documents for completion of the Work.

shall mean calendar day.
8.2 PROGRESS AND COMPLETION

extensions thereto, unless otherwise provided.
8.3 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME
8.3.1 If the Contractor is delayed at any time in the
progress of the Work by any act or neglect of the Owner
or the Architect, or by any employee of either, or by any
separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by
changes ordered in the Work, or by labor disputes, fire,
unusual delay in transportation, unavoidable casualties or
any causes beyond the Contractor's control, or by delay
authorized by the Owner pending arbitration, or by any
cause which the Architect determines may justify the
delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by
Change Order for such reasonable time as the Architect
may determine.

PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION
9.1 CONTRACT SUM
9.1.1 The Contract Sum is stated in the Agreement and
is the total amount payable by the Owner to the Con-
tractor for the performance of the Work under the
Contract Documents.
9.2 SCHEDULE OF VALUES
9.2.1 Before the first Application for Payment, the Con-
tractor shall submit to the Architect a schedule of values
of the various portions of the Work, including quantities
if required by the Architect, aggregating the total Con-
tract Sum, divided so as to facilitate payments to Sub-
contractors in accordance with Paragraph 5.4, prepared in
such form as specified or as the Architect and the Con-
tractor may agree upon, and supported by such data to
substantiate its correctness as the Architect may require.
Each item in the schedule of values shall include its
proper share of overhead and profit. This schedule, when
approved by the Architect, shall be used only as a basis
for the Contractor's Applications for Payment.
9.3 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
9.3.1 At least ten days before each progress payment
falls due, the Contractor shall submit to the Architect an
itemized Application for Payment, supported by such
data substantiating the Contractor's right to payment as
the Owner or the Architect may require.
9.3.2 If payments are to be made on account of mate-
rials or equipment not incorporated in the Work but de
livered and suitably stored at the site, or at some other
location agreed upon in writing, such payments shall be
conditioned upon submission by the Contractor of bills
of sale or such other procedures satisfactory to the
Owner to establish the Owner's title to such materials or
equipment or otherwise protect the Owner's interest in-
cluding applicable insurance and transportation to the
site.
9.3.3 The Contractor warrants and guarantees that title
to all Work, materials and equipment covered by an
Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the
Project or not, will pass to the Owner upon the receipt
of such payment by the Contractor, free and clear of
all liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances, here-
inafter referred to in this Article 9 as "liens"; and that no
Work, materials or equipment covered by an Application
for Payment will have been acquired by the Contractor
or by any other person performing the Work at the site
or furnishing materials and equipment for the Project,
subject to an agreement under which an interest therein
or an encumbrance thereon is retained by the seller or
otherwise imposed by the Contractor or such other
person.

9.4 CERTIFICATES FOR PAYMENT
9.4.1 If the Contractor has made Application for Pay-
ment as above, the Architect will, with reasonable
promptness but not more than seven days after the re-
ceipt of the Application, issue a Certificate for Payment
to the Owner, with a copy to the Contractor, for such
amount as he determines to be properly due, or state in
writing his reasons for withholding a Certificate as pro-
vided in Subparagraph 9.5.1.
9.4.2 The issuance of a Certificate for Payment will con-
stitute a representation by the Architect to the Owner,
based on his observations at the site as provided in Sub-
paragraph 2.2.4 and the data comprising the Applica-
tion for Payment, that the Work has progressed to the
point indicated; that, to the best of his knowledge, in-
formation and belief, the quality of the Work is in ac-
cordance with the Contract Documents (subject to an
evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Con-
tract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to the
results of any subsequent tests required by the Contract
Documents, to minor deviations from the Contract Docu-
ments correctable prior to completion, and to any spe-
cific qualifications stated in his Certificate); and that the
Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified.
In addition, the Architect's final Certificate for Payment
will constitute a further representation that the condi-
tions precedent to the Contractor's being entitled to final
payment as set forth in Subparagraph 9.7.2 have been
fulfilled. However, by issuing a Certificate for Payment,
the Architect shall not thereby be deemed to represent
that he has made exhaustive or continuous on-site
inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work
or that he has reviewed the construction means, methods,
techniques, sequences or procedures, or that he has
made any examination to ascertain how or for what
purpose the Contractor has used the moneys previously
paid on account of the Contract Sum.
9.4.3 After the Architect has issued a Certificate for Pay-
ment, the Owner shall make payment in the manner pro-
vided in the Agreement.
9.4.4 No certificate for a progress payment, nor any
progress payment, nor any partial or entire use or oc-
cupancy of the Project by the Owner, shall constitute an
acceptance of any Work not in accordance with the Con-
tract Documents.
9,5 PAYMENTS WITHHELD
9.5.1 The Architect may decline to approve an Appli-
cation for Payment and may withhold his Certificate in
whole or in part, to the extent necessary reasonably to
protect the Owner, if in his opinion he is unable to make
.representations to the Owner as provided in Subpara-
graph 9.4.2. The Architect may also decline to approve
any Applications for Payment or, because of subsequently
discovered evidence or subsequent inspections, he may
nullify the whole or any part of any Certificate for Pay-
ment previously issued, to such extent as may be neces-
sary in his opinion to protect the Owner from loss be-
cause of:
.1 defective work not remedied,
.2 third party claims filed or reasonable evidence
indicating probable filing of such claims,
Approved For Release 2001/08/07 : CIA-RDP78-06501A000300020005-1
Approved For Release 2001/08/07 : CIA-RDP78-06501A000300020005-1
.3 failure of the Contractor to make payments prop-
erly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials or
equipment,
.4 reasonable doubt that the Work can be com-
pleted for the unpaid balance of the Contract
Sum,
.5 damage to another contractor,
.6 reasonable indication that the Work will not be
completed within the Contract Time, or
.7 unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work by the
Contractor.
9.5.2 When the above grounds in Subparagraph 9.5.1
are removed, payment shall be made for amounts with-
held because of them.
9.6 FAILURE OF PAYMENT
9.6.1 If the Architect should fail to issue any Certificate
for Payment, through no fault of the Contractor, within
seven days after receipt of the Contractor's Application
for Payment, or if the Owner should fail to pay the Con-
tractor within seven days after the date of payment es-
tablished in the Agreement any amount certified by the
Architect or awarded by arbitration, then the Contrac-
tor may, upon seven additional days' written notice to
the Owner and the Architect, stop the Work until pay-
ment of the amount owing has been received.
9.7 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT
9.7.1 When the Contractor determines that the Work
or a designated portion thereof acceptable to the Owner
is substantially complete, the Contractor shall prepare for
submission to the Architect a list of items to be com-
pleted or corrected. The failure to include any items
on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Con-
tractor to complete all Work in accordance with the
Contract Documents. When the Architect on the basis of
an inspection determines that the Work is substantially
complete, he will then prepare a Certificate of Substantial
Completion which shall establish the Date of Substantial
Completion, shall state the responsibilities of the Owner
and the Contractor for maintenance, heat, utilities, and
insurance, and shall fix the time within which the Con-
tractor shall complete the items listed therein. The Cer-
tificate of Substantial Completion shall be submitted to
the owner and the Contractor for their written accept-
ance of the responsibilities assigned to them in such
Certificate.
9.7.2 Upon receipt of written notice that the Work is
ready for final inspection and acceptance and upon re-
ceipt of a final Application for Payment, the Architect
will promptly make such inspection and, when he finds
the Work acceptable under the Contract Documents and
the Contract fully performed, he will promptly issue a
final Certificate for Payment stating that to the best of his
knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis of
his observations and inspections, the Work has been
completed in accordance with the terms and conditions
of the Contract Documents and that the entire balance
found to be due the Contractor, and noted in said final
Certificate, is due and payable.
9.7.3 Neither the final payment nor the remaining re-
tained percentage shall become due until the Contractor
submits to the Architect (1) an Affidavit that all payrolls,
bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness
connected with the Work for which the Owner or his
property might in any way be responsible, have been
paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) consent of surety, if any,
to final payment and (3), if required by the Owner, other
data establishing payment or satisfaction of all such ob-
ligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens
arising out of the Contract, to the extent andl in such form
as may be designated by the Owner. If any Subcontrac-
tor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the
Owner, the Contractor may furnish a bond satisfactory to
the Owner to indemnify him against any such lien. If
any such lien remains unsatisfied after all payments are
made, the Contractor shall refund to the Owner all
moneys that the latter may be compelled to pay in dis-
charging such lien, including all costs and reasonable at-
torneys' fees.
9.7.4 If after Substantial Completion of the Work final
completion thereof is materially delayed through no fault
of the Contractor, and the Architect so confirms, the
Owner shall, upon certification by the Architect, and with-
out terminating the Contract, make payment of the bal-
ance due for that portion of the Work fully completed
and accepted. If the remaining balance for Work not fully
completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipu-
lated in the Agreement, and if bonds have been furnished
as required in Subparagraph 7.5.1, the written consent of
the surety to the payment of the balance due for that
portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall
be submitted by the Contractor to the Architect prior to
certification of such payment. Such payment shall be
made under the terms and conditions governing final
payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of
claims.
9.7.5 The making of final payment shall constitute a
waiver of all claims by the Owner except those arising
from:
.1 unsettled liens,
.2 faulty or defective Work appearing after Substan-
tial Completion,
.3 failure of the Work to comply with the require-
ments of the Contract Documents, or
.4 terms of any special guarantees required by the
Contract Documents.
9.7.6 The acceptance of final payment shall constitute a
waiver of all claims by the Contractor except those pre-
viously made in writing and still unsettled.
PROTECTION OF PERSONS AND PROPERTY
10.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND PROGRAMS
10.1.1 The Contractor shall be responsible for initiating,
maintaining and supervising all safety precautions and
programs in connection with the Work.
10.2 SAFETY OF PERSONS AND PROPERTY

tions for the safety of, and shall provide all reasonable
protection to prevent damage, injury or loss to:

11.3.4 The Owner shall file a copy of all policies with
the Contractor before an exposure to loss may occur. If
the Owner does not intend to purchase such insurance,
he shall inform the Contractor in writing prior to com-
mencement of the Work. The Contractor may then effect
insurance which will protect the interests of himself, his
Subcontractors and the Sub-subcontractors in the Work,
and by appropriate Change Order the cost thereof shall
be charged to the Owner. If the Contractor is damaged by
failure of the owner to purchase or maintain such insur-
ance and so to notify the Contractor, then the Owner
shall bear all reasonable costs properly attributable
thereto.
11.3.5 If the Contractor requests in writing that insur-
ance for special hazards be included in the property insur-
ance policy, the Owner shall, if possible, include such
insurance, and the cost thereof shall be charged to the
Contractor by appropriate Change Order.
11.3.6 The Owner and Contractor waive all rights against
each other for damages caused by fire or other perils to
the extent covered by insurance provided under this Para-
graph 11.3, except such rights as they may have to the
proceeds of such insurance held by the Owner as trustee.
The Contractor shall require similar waivers by Subcon-
tractors and Sub-subcontractors in accordance with
Clause 5.3.1.5.
11.3.7 If required in writing by any party in interest, the
Owner as trustee shall, upon the occurrence of an insured
loss, give bond for the proper performance of his duties.
He shall deposit in a separate account any money so re-
ceived, and he shall distribute it in accordance with such
agreement as the parties in interest may reach, or in ac-
cordance with an award by arbitration in which case the
procedure shall be as provided in Paragraph 7.10. If after
such loss no other special agreement is made, replace-
ment of damaged work shall be covered by an appro-
priate Change Order.
11.3.8 The Owner as trustee shall have power to adjust
and settle any loss with the insurers unless one of the
parties in interest shall object in writing within five days
after the occurrence of loss to the Owner's exercise of
this power, and if such objection be made, arbitrators
shall be chosen as provided in Paragraph 7.10. The Owner
as trustee shall, in that case, make settlement with the
insurers in accordance with the directions of such arbi-
trators. If distribution of the insurance proceeds by
arbitration is required, the arbitrators will direct such
distribution.

ARTICLE 12
CHANGES IN THE WORK
12.1 CHANGE ORDERS
12.1.1 The Owner, without invalidating the Contract,
may order Changes in the Work within the general scope
of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions or other
revisions, the Contract Sum and the Contract Time being
adjusted accordingly. All such Changes in the Work shall
be authorized by Change Order, and shall be executed
under the applicable conditions of the Contract Docu-
ments.
12.1.2 A Change Order is a written order to the Con-
tractor signed by the owner and the Architect, issued
after the execution of the Contract, authorizing a Change
in the Work or an adjustment in the Contract Sum or the
Contract Time. Alternatively, the Change Order may be
signed by the Architect alone, provided he has written
authority from the Owner for such procedure and that a
copy of such written authority is furnished to the Con-
tractor upon request. A Change Order may also be signed
by the Contractor if he agrees to the adjustment in the
Contract Sum or the Contract Time. The Contract Sum
and the Contract Time may be changed only by Change
Order.
12.1.3 The cost or credit to the Owner resulting fronn a
Change in the Work shall be determined in one or more
of the following ways:
.1 by mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly
itemized;
.2 by unit prices stated in the Contract Documents
or subsequently agreed upon; or
.3 by cost and a mutually acceptable fixed or per-
centage fee.
12.1.4 If none of the methods set forth in Subparagraph
12.1.3 is agreed upon, the Contractor, provided he re-
ceives a Change Order, shall promptly proceed with the
Work involved. The cost of such Work shall then be de-
termined by the Architect on the basis of the Contractor's
reasonable expenditures and savings, including, in the
case of an increase in the Contract Sum, a reasonable
allowance for overhead and profit. In such Case, and also
under Clause 12.1.3.3 above, the Contractor shall keep
and present, in such form as the Architect may prescribe,
an itemized accounting together with appropriate sup-
porting data. Pending final determination of cost to the
Owner, payments on account shall be made on the
Architect's Certificate for Payment. The amount of credit
to be allowed by the Contractor to the Owner for any
deletion or change which results in a net decrease in cost
will be the amount of the actual net decrease as con-
firmed by the Architect. When both additions and credits
are involved in any one change, the allowance for over-
head and profit shall be figured on the basis of net in-
crease, if any.
12.1.5 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Docu-
ments or subsequently agreed upon, and if the quantities
originally contemplated are so changed in a proposed
Change Order that application of the agreed unit prices
to the quantities of Work proposed will create a hard-
ship on the owner or the Contractor, the applicable unit
prices shall be equitably adjusted to prevent such hard-
ship.
12.1.6 Should concealed conditions encountered in the
performance of the Work below the surface of the ground
be at variance with the conditions indicated by the Con-
tract Documents or should unknown physical conditions
below the surface of the ground of an unusual nature,

differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and
generally recognized as inherent in work of the character
provided for in this Contract, be encountered, the Con-
tract Sum shall be equitably adjusted by Change Order
upon claim by either party made within twenty days
after the first observance of the conditions.
12.1.7 If the Contractor claims that additional cost is
involved because of (1) any written interpretation issued
pursuant to Subparagraph 1.2.5, (2) any order by the
Owner to stop the Work pursuant to Paragraph 3.3 where
the Contractor was not at fault, or (3) any written order
for a minor change in the Work issued pursuant to Para-
graph 12.3, the Contractor shall make such claim as pro-
vided in Paragraph 12.2.
12.2 CLAIMS FOR ADDITIONAL COST
12.2.1 If the Contractor wishes to make a claim for an
increase in the Contract Sum, he shall give the Architect
written notice thereof within twenty days after the occur-
rence of the event giving rise to such claim. This notice
shall be given by the Contractor before proceeding to exe-
cute the Work, except in an emergency endangering life
or property in which case the Contractor shall proceed in
accordance with Subparagraph 10.3.1. No such claim shall
be valid unless so made. If the Owner and the Contractor
cannot agree on the amount of the adjustment in the
Contract Sum, it shall be determined by the Architect.
Any change in the Contract Sum resulting from such
claim shall be authorized by Change Order.
12.3 MINOR CHANGES IN THE WORK
12.3.1 The Architect shall have authority to order minor
changes in the Work not involving an adjustment in the
Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time and
not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Docu-
ments. Such changes may be effected by Field Order or
by other written order. Such changes shall be binding on
the Owner and the Contractor.
12.4 FIELD ORDERS
12.4.1 The Architect may issue written Field Orders
which interpret the Contract Documents in accordance
with Subparagraph 1.2.5 or which order minor changes
in the Work in accordance with Paragraph 12.3 without
change in Contract Sum or Contract Time. The Contractor
shall carry out such Field Orders promptly.
UNCOVERING AND CORRECTION OF WORK
13.1 UNCOVERING OF WORK
13.1.1 If any Work should be covered contrary to the re-
quest of the Architect, it must, if required by the Archi-
tect, be uncovered for his observation and replaced, at
the Contractor's expense.
13.1.2 If any other Work has been covered which the
Architect has not specifically requested to observe prior
to being covered, the Architect may request to see such
Work and it shall be uncovered by the Contractor. If
such Work be found in accordance with the Contract
Documents, the cost of uncovering and replacement
shall, by appropriate Change Order, be charged to the
Owner. If such Work be found not in accordance with
the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall pay such
costs unless it be found that this condition was caused
by a separate contractor employed as provided in Article
6, and in that event the Owner shall be responsible for
the payment of such costs.
13.2 CORRECTION OF WORK
13.2.1 The Contractor shall promptly correct all Work
rejected by the Architect as defective or as failing to con-
form to the Contract Documents whether observed
before or after Substantial Completion and whether or
not fabricated, installed or completed. The Contractor
shall bear all cost of correcting such rejected Work, in-
cluding the cost of the Architect's additional services
thereby made necessary.
13.2.2 If, within one year after the Date of Substantial
Completion or within such longer period of time as may
be prescribed by law or by the terms of any applicable
special guarantee required by the Contract Documents,
any of the Work is found to be defective or not in ac-
cordance with the Contract Documents, the Contractor
shall correct it promptly after receipt of a written notice
from the Owner to do so unless the Owner has pre-
viously given the Contractor a written acceptance of such
condition. The owner shall give such notice promptly
after discovery of the condition.
13.2.3 All such defective or non-conforming Work under
Subparagraphs 13.2.1 and 13.2.2 shall be removed from
the site if necessary, and the Work shall be corrected to
comply with the Contract Documents without cost to
the Owner.
13.2.4 The Contractor shall bear the cost of making
good all work of separate contractors destroyed or dam-
aged by such removal or correction.
13.2.5 If the Contractor does not remove such defective
or non-conforming Work within a reasonable time fixed
by written notice from the Architect, the Owner may
remove it and may store the materials or equipment at
the expense of the Contractor. If the Contractor does not
pay the cost of such removal and storage within ten days
thereafter, the Owner may upon ten additional days'
written notice sell such Work at auction or at private sale
and shall account for the net proceeds thereof, after
deducting all the costs that should have been borne by
the Contractor including compensation for additional
architectural services. If such proceeds of sale do not
cover all costs which the Contractor should have borne,
the difference shall be charged to the Contractor and an
appropriate Change Order shall be issued. If the pay-
ments then or thereafter due the Contractor are not suf-
ficient to cover such amount, the Contractor shall pay the
difference to the Owner.
13.2.6 If the Contractor fails to correct such defective
or non-conforming Work, the Owner may correct it in
accordance with Paragraph 3.4.
13.3 ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE
OR NON-CONFORMING WORK
13.3.1 If the Owner prefers to accept defective or non-
conforming Work, he may do so instead of requiring its

removal and correction, in which case a Change Order
will be issued to reflect an appropriate reduction in the
Contract Sum, or, if the amount is determined after final
payment, it shall be paid by the Contractor.
14.1 TERMINATION BY THE CONTRACTOR
14.1.1 If the Work is stopped for a period of thirty
days under an order of any court or other public authority
having jurisdiction, or as a result of an act of government,
such as a declaration of a national emergency making
materials unavailable, through no act or fault of the Con-
tractor or a Subcontractor or their agents or employees
or any other persons performing any of the Work under
a contract with the Contractor, or if the Work should be
stopped for a period of thirty days by the Contractor for
the Architect's failure to issue a Certificate for Payment as
provided in Paragraph 9.6 or for the Owner's failure to
make payment thereon as provided in Paragraph 9.6,
then the Contractor may, upon seven days' written notice
to the owner and the Architect, terminate the Contract
and recover from the Owner payment for all Work exe-
cuted and for any proven loss sustained upon any ma-
terials, equipment, tools, construction equipment and
machinery, including reasonable profit and damages.
14.2 TERMINATION BY THE OWNER
14.2.1 If the Contractor is adjudged a bankrupt, or if he
makes a general assignment for the benefit of his credi-
tors, or if a receiver is appointed on account of his in-
solvency, or if he persistently or repeatedly refuses or
fails, except in cases for which extension of time is pro-
vided, to supply enough properly skilled workmen or
proper materials, or if he fails to make prompt payment
to Subcontractors or for materials or labor, or persistently
disregards laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or orders
of any public authority having jurisdiction, or otherwise
is guilty of a substantial violation of a provision of the
Contract Documents, then the Owner, upon certification
by the Architect that sufficient cause exists to justify such
action, may, without prejudice to any right or remedy
and after giving the Contractor and his surety, if any,
seven days' written notice, terminate the employment of
the Contractor and take possession of the site and of
all materials, equipment, tools, construction equipment
and machinery thereon owned by the Contractor and may
finish the Work by whatever method he may deem ex-
pedient. In such case the Contractor shall not be entitled
to receive any further payment until the Work is finished.
14.2.2 If the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum ex-
ceeds the costs of finishing the Work, including com-
pensation for the Architect's additional services, such
excess shall be paid to the Contractor. If such costs ex-
ceed such unpaid balance, the Contractor shall pay the
difference to the Owner. The costs incurred by the Owner
as herein provided shall be certified by the Architect.
