1'1.2 ALLOWANCES AND FINAL CONTRACT PRICE ADJUSTMENT
It is understood that Contractor has included in the Contract Price all allowances so named in the
Contract L7ocuments and shall cause the Work so covered to be furnished and performed for such
sums as may be acceptable to Owner and Engineer. Ccmtractor agrees that: (i) the allowances
include the cost to Contractor (Icss any applicable trade discounts) of materials and equipment
required by the allowances to be delivered at the Site, and al] applicable taxes; and (ii)
Contractor's costs f`or unloading and handling on the site, labor, installation costs, overhead,
profit and other expenses contemplated for the allowances have been included in the Contract
Price and not in the allpwances and no demand for add.itional payment on account of any of the
foregoing will be valid.
Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued as recommended by Ow.ner's
Representative to reflect actual amounts due Contractor on account of Work covered by
allowances and all the Work actually performed by the Contractor, and the Contract Price shall
be correspondingly adjusted.
11.3 UNIT PRICE WQRK
Where the Contract Documents provide that all or parf of the Work is to Ue Unit Price Work,
initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to
the sum of the established unit pr.ice for each separately identi.fied item of unit price work times
the estimated quantity of each item as indicated i.n the Agreement. The estimated quantities of
items of Unit Price \Uork are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of comparison of
Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determinations of Che actual quantities and
classifications of Unit Price Work performed by Cantractor will be rnade by Owner's
Representative. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount considered by Cont.ractor to
be adequate to cover Contractar's overhead and profit for each separately identi�ed item. The
Owner ar Contractor may make a claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price if: (i) the quantiCy
of any item afUnit .Price Work performed by Contractor differs materially and significantly from
the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Contract Documents; and (ii) there is no
corresponding adjustment with respect to any other item of Work; and (iii) ifContractor believes
that Contractor is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result of having incurred
additional expense or the Owner believes that the Owner is entitled to a decrease rn Contract
Price and the parfies are unable to agrec as to the amount of any such increase or decrease. On
unit price contracts, Owner endeavors to provide adequate unit quantities to satisfactorily
complete the construction of the project. it is expected that in the normal course of project
constructian and completion that not all unit quantities will be used in their entirety and that a
f.nalizing change order which adjusts contract unit c�uantities to those urait yuantities actually
used in the construction of the project will result in a net decrease from the original Contract
Price. Such reasonable deduction of final Contract Price should be anticipated by the Contractor
in his original bid.
12 CHANGES IN THE CONTRACT TIME
The Contract Time (or Milestones) may only be changed by a Change Order or a Written
Amendment. Any claim for an adjustment of the Contract Time (or Milestones) shall be based on
written notice delivered by the party making the claim to the other party and to Owner's
Representative promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) days, after the occurrc;nce af the
�vent giving rise to the claim and stating the general nature of the claim. Notice of ihe extent of

the claim with supporting data shall be delivered within sixty (60) days after such occurrence,
unless Owner's Representative allows an additional period of time to ascertain more accurate
data in support of the claim, and shall be accompanied by the claimant's written statement that
the adjustment claimed is the entire adjustment to which the claimant has reason to believe it is
entitled as a result of the occurrence of said event. All claitns for adjustment in the Contract
Time (or Milestones) shall be determined by Owner's Repr�sentative. No claim for an
adjustment in the Contract Time (or Milestones) will be valid if not submitted in accordance with
the require►nents ofthis paragraph.

therefore as provided in the article %r Changes in the
� Work. Delays beyond the control of Contractor shall include, but not be limited to, acts by the
Owner, acts of utility owners or ather contractors performing other work as contemplated by the
article for Otiaer Work, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions or acts of God.
� Delays attributable to and within the cantrol of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be
delays within the control of Contractor.
� Where Cantractor is prevented fram completing any part of the Work within the Contract Times
(or Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of both the Owner and Contractor, an extension
of the Contract Tirne (or Milestones) in an amount equal to the time lost due fo such delay shall
be Contractor's sole and exclusive remedy for such delay. In no event shall the Owner be liable
� to Contractor, any Subcontraetor, any Supplier, any other person, or to any surety for or
employee or a�ent of any of them, for damages arising out of or resulting from (i) delays caused
by or within the control of Contractor, or (ii) delays beyond the cantrol of both parties including

Section iV — 7 echnical 5pecitications
The contractor's methods of work will be consistent with the standard practices and requirements
of all appropriate Safety Regulatory Agencies, particularly the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) requirements for excavation. Uraless otherwise speci:fically stated in
these plans and specit7cations, the methods c�f safety control and compliance with regulatory
agency safety rcquirements are the full and complete respansibility of the contractor.
For the purposES of the Contractor's safety planning in the biddi.ng process, the contractor .is to
consider all excavation to be done in the performance of this contract to be in soil classified as
OSHA "Type C". The Contractor's attention is called to specific requireraaents of OSI�IA for
excavation shoring, employee entry, location of excavated material adjacent to excavation, the
removal of water from the excavation, surface encumbrances and in particular the requir�ment of
a"Competent Person" to control safety operations. The Cantractor will identify his Competent
Person to City stafFat Che start of construction.
City staff are required from time to time to perform inspecCions, tests, survey location work, or
other similar activity in an excavation prepared by the contractor. City staff i.n conformance with
the OSHA Excavation Safety Requirements are to only enter an excavation in compliance with
these OSHA standards. The City's staff reser-ve the option to refuse entry into the Contractor's
excavation i:F, in the opinion of the City's stat�', the entry into the Contractor's excavation is
unsafe or doe5 not conform OSHA requirements. If this circumstance occurs, the contractor must
either provide the necessary saf�ty requirements or provide alternate means for the
accomplishment of the City's work at the Contractior's expense.
The restoration quantities, if any, contained in the bid proposal for this contract to not contain
sufficient quantities Co allow the contractor to perform excavation work using strictly the "open
cut" meChod whereby no shoring systems are used and trench side slopes are cuC to conform to
OSHA safety requirements without a shoring system. I.n addition to safety reasons, the
Contractor is required to use excavation and trench-shoring methods in compliance with all
safety requirements which allow the Contractor to control the amount of restoration work
necessary to complete the project.
Not more than one hundred (100) feet of trench shall be opened at one time in advance of the
completed work unless written permission is received f'rom the Engineer for the distance
specified. For pipe installation projects, the trench shal.l be six (6) inches wider on each side than
the greatest external horizontal width of the pipe or conduit, including hubs, intended to be laid
in them. 7'he bottom of the trench under each pipe joint shall be slightly hollowed, to allow the
body of the pipe to rest throughout its length. ln case a trench is excavated at any place,
exceptin� at joints, below the grade of its bottom as given, or directed by tl�e En�ineer, the filling
and compaction to grade shall be done in such manner as the Engineer shall direct, without
compensation.
C�rZ�1►L�1:���
Unless oth�rwise directed, all concrete work shall be performed in accordance with the latest
editions of the Design and Control of Concrete Mixtures by the Portland Cement Association, the
American Concrete Institute, and FDOT's Standard Specifications. All appropriate testing shall
be performed according to the American Society of Testing Materials.
Unless otherwise specified, all conerete shall have fber mesh reinforcing and have a minimum
compressive strength of 3000 p.s.i. at 2$ days. Th,e cement type shall be Type 1 and shall
conform to AASHTO M-85. The aggregate shaJl confoarm to ASTM C-33. All ready rnix concrete

shall conform to ASTM C-94. The slump for all concrete shall be in the range of 3" to S", except
when admixtures or special placement considerations are required.
The Contractor shall notify the Project Inspector a minimum of 24 hours in advance of aIl
concrete placement.
All concrete shall be tested in the following manner:
Placement of less than 5 cubic yards (cy) shall be tested at the Engineer's discretion. Otherwise,
for each class, for each day, for every 50 cy or part thereof exceeding 5 cy, one set of 3
compressive strength cylinders will be reyuired (1 at 7 days and 2 at 28 days). At the discretion
of the Engineer, unacceptable test results may require the Contractor to provide further tests, as
determined by the Engineer, to determine product acceptability, or need for removal, and
compensation or denial thereof.

City of Clearwater - Eros�on Control
This notice is to inform the prime contractor that the City of Clearwater holds them responsible
for soil erosion control on their site.
The City of Clearwater Engineering Department has the responsibility to minimize the amount of
soil erosion into th� City's st.reets, storm sewers and waterways.
The construction of a new residence or commercial site and major remodeling of an existing site
creates a potential for soil erosion. These instances are usually the result of contractors and
subcontractors accessing the property with equipment or construction materials. 'xhen rain storms
redistribute Che eroded soil into the adjacent streets, storm systems and waterways.
When erosion takes place, a City Inspector will place a correction notice at the site. The
procedure will be as follows:
1 st occurrence - Warning
2nd occurrence - $32 Re-inspection Fee
3rd occurrence - $80 .Re-inspection Fee
4th occurrence - Stop Work Order
Dependent on the severity of the erosion, the City's Enginecring Deparlment may elect to rectify
the erosion problem and charge the contractor accordingly.
The attached drawings and details are recommendations for the cont�•actor to use as means to
support the site from eroding. The contractor may elect to shovel and sw�ep the street daily or on
an as needed basis. However, erosion must be held in check.
If the contractor would like to meet with a City inspector an any particular site, please contact
Construction Services at 562-4750 or Planning & Development Services at 562-4741.
Erasion Cantrol Reyuired - City of Clearwater's Code of Ordinances requires erosion contr�l on
all land development projects.
Erosion control must be in place and maintained throughout the job. .Failure to do so may result
in additional costs and time delays to the permit holder.
Contact Engineering Department with specific questions at 562-4750.

��
All pipe and fittings sha11 be carefully examined for cracks and other def�ects while suspended
above the trench immediately before installatian in final position. Spigot ends shall be examined
with particular care as this area is the most vulnerable to damage from handling. Defective pipe
or fittings shall be laid aside for inspection by the Engineer who will prescribe corrective repairs
or rejection.
All lumps, blisters, and excess coating sl�all be removed from the bell and spigot end of each
pipe, and the outside of the spigot and tlte inside af the bell shall be wire brushed and wiped
clean and dry and free froin oil and grease before the pipe is laid. Pipe j�ints shall be made up in
accordance with the manufacturer's recammendations.
Every precaution shall be taken to prevent foreign material from entering the pipe while it is
being placed in the line. If the pipe laying crew cannot put the pipe into the trench and in place
without getting earth into it, the En�ineer may require that, before lowering the pipe into the
trench, a heavy, woven canvas bag of suitable size shall be placed over each end and left there
until the connection is to be made to the adjacent pipe. During laying operation, na debris, toals,
clothing or other materials shall be placed in the pipe.
As each length of pipe is placed in the trench, the spigot end shall be centered in the bell and the
pipe forced home and brought to correct line and grade. The pipe shal) be secured in place with
approved backfill material tamped under it except at the bells. Precautions shall be taken to
prevent dirt from entering the joint space.
At times when pipe laying is not in progress, the open ends of pipe shall be closed by a
watertight plug or other means approved by the Engineer.
The cutting of pipe for inserting valves, fittings, or closure pieces shall be done in a neat and
, workmanlike manner without damage to the pipe or cement lining and so as to leave a smooth
end at right angles to the axis of the pipe.
Pipe shall be laid with bell ends facing in the direction of laying unless directed otherwise by the
� Engineer. Where pipe is laid on the grade of 10 per cent or greater, the laying shall start at
bottom and shall proceed upward with the bell ends of the pipe upgrade.
Wherever it is necessary to deflect pipe from a straight line, either in the vertical or horizontal
� plane to avoid abstructions or to plumb stems; or where long.radius curves are permitted, the
amount of deflection allowed shall not exceed that allowed under the latest edition of
ANST/AWWA C600-82 and C900 81 or latest revisions.

inspection during placing shall be maintained. �1ny imperfections discovered shall be cut out and
replaced with sound material_
4$.1$ EQUIPMENT
Cement Gun: The mixing and delivering equipment shall be either the vertical double chamber
type or rotary type. The upper chamber of the double chamber type shall receive and pressurize
the dry mix and deliver it to the lower chamber. The lower chamber sha.l] force the pressurized
mix into the delivery hose by means of a feed wheel. The type of feeder utilized should be of
sufficient capacity Chat the lower chamb�r may continuously iiarnish all required material to the
delivery hose while the upper chamber receives the recharge. The rotary type cement gun shall
have an enlar�ed hopper to feed material into a rotating multiported cylinder. Material shall fall
by gravity into a port which shall then be rotated to a position in which the material is expelled
by air into a moving stream of air. A11 equipment must be kept in good repair. The interior of
drums, feed gearing and valves shall be cleaned as often as necessary (at least once every 8 hour
shift) to prevent material from cakrng on critrcal parts.
Nozzle: Nozzle shall be the premixing type with perforated water feed ring inside the nozzle.
The maximurn length of material hose for the application of gunite shall be approxirnately 150
feet although it shal) be permissible to use as much as 800 feet of material hose if the supply air
pressure measured at the cement gun is inereased to maintain proper velocity. The following
table gives requirements for compressor size, hose si2e and air pressure using 150 feet of
material hosE:
Comp. Cap Max. Hose Dia. Max. Size Nazzle Min. Air Press.

365 1 5/8 1 5/8 60
600 2 2 80
750 2 1/2 2]/2 90
For each 25 feet of material hose used in excess of 150 feet, the required air pressure shall be
increased by 5 psi.
Air Compressor: Any standard type oF compressor shall be satisfactory if it is of sufflcient
capacity to provide, without interruption, the pressures and volume of air necessary for the
longest hose delivery. The air compressor capacity determinatians shall include allowances made
for the a.ir consumed in blowing rebound, cleaning, reinfo.rcing and for incidental uses.
Compressor equipment shall be of such capacity so as to insure air pressures at the special mixer
capable of producing the required material velocities.
Water Supply: The water pressure at the discharge nozzle should be sufficiently greater than the
operating air pressure to assure the water is intimately mixed with the other materials. I�th.e line
water pressure is inadequate, a water pump o.r pressurized tank shall be introduced into the line.
The water pressure shall be unifarrnly steady (nonpulsating).

shall be of single unit construction; the base, lid ends and sides shall be either woven into a
s.rngle unit or one edge of these members connected to the base section of the gabion in such a
manner that the strength and flexibility at the connecting point is at least equal to that of the
mesh. Where the length ofthe gabion and mattress exceeds one and one-half its horizontal width,
they shall be equally drvided by diaphragms of the same mesh and gauge as the mattresses shall
be furnished with the necessary diaphragms secured in proper position on the base so that no
additional tying is required at this juncture. The wire mesh is to be fabricated so that it will not
ravel. This is de .fined as the ability to resist pulling apart at any of the twists or connections
forming the mesh when a single wire strand in a section of inesh is cut.
Each gabion or mattress shall be assembled by tying all untied edges with binding wire. The
binding wire shall be tightly looped around every other mesh opening along seams so that single
and double loops are alternated.
A line of empty �abions shall be placed into position according to the contract drawings and
binding wire shall be used to securely tie each unit to the adjoining one along the vertical
reinforced edges and the top selvedges. The base of the empty gabions placed on top of a filled
line of gabions shall be tightly wire to the latter at front and back.

E. The following are specific concrete surface preparation "methods" to be used
where called for on the Drawi.ngs, specifred in this Scction, c�r as directed by the
Engineer.
Method .�1: �1.fter the existin�; concrete surface at connection has been
roughened and cleaned, thoroughly moisten the existing surface with
water. P,nish on a 1/16-inch layer of cement and water mixed to the
consistency of a heavy paste. Immediately after applying the cement paste,
place new concrete or grout mixture as detailed on the Drawings.
2. Method B: After the concrete surface has been rou�hened and cleaned,
apply an epoxy bonding agent at connection surface. The field preparation
and application of the epoxy bonding agent shall comply sCricCly with the
manufactur�r's recommendations. Place new concrete or grout mixture to
limits shown on the Drawings within time constraints recommended by
the rnanufacturer to ensure bond.
3. Method C: Drill a hole 1/4 inch larger than the diameter of the dowel. 'The
hole shall be blown clear of loose particles and dust _just before installing
epoxy. The drilled hole shall first be filled with [epoxy paste], then
dowels/bolts shall be buttered with paste and inserted by tapping. ilnless
otherwise shown on the Drawings, defonned bars shall be drilled and set
to a depth of ]0 Uar diameters and smooth bars shall be drilled and set to a
depth of 15 bar diameters. If not noted on the .Drawings, the .Engineer will
