(h) Examinatlon of Site and Documents: Prlor to submissionof a proposal for contract wlth the Hibberd ConstructionCompany, a1f subcontractors sha11 examine the contractdocuments and the site as required. After the executionof the contract, it sha11 be mutually assumed and under-stood that subcontractor shall have executed such exam-ination as requlred and that thls shal1 constitute lmpliedunderstanding of all conditions relatlve to the work ofthe subcontractor. If anythlng, material or 1abor, beomitted from these docunents necessary for the propercompletion of the work, 1t shal1 be the obligatlon of thesubcontractor lnvolved to present these facts to the con-tractor prlor to signlng the contract. In the event offhe failure of such notlfication to the Hibberd ConstructionCompany, it shaIl be the responslbility of the subcontractorlnvolved to make good any defect in materlal or workmanshipcaused by such omisslon, wi-thout extra charge. No a1l_owancefor l-ack of ful-1 knowledge or conditlons at the site shall-be made, except such unknown conditj-ons as are determlnedafter commencement of the wor"k that were unknown previouslyto the conmencement of that work.
Speciflcally, 1t is understood by all partles entering intocontract for this work that the owner wil-l_ not accept abuildlng which has no glass 1n wlndows, no drywall on thewa11s, unpainted or poorly palnted exposed surface. Therewill not be exposed plumbing, exposed ducls, separatedm111ard jolnts, doors whlch w1ll- not c1ose, warped and,/orunsenviceable drawers and cabinet doors, lamlnate which hasseparated from subsurfaces, baseboard misslng or separatedfrom wa1l surfaces, or appliances or plumbing units whlchare broken or unservlceable. These considerations seemlrnmediateLy apparent, however, they are consistently sourcesof dispute i.n constructlon projects. They are menti_onedhere only as a devlce to insure that all parties lnvolvedin thls buiJ-ding might know that the owner will ultimatelyinsist that each trade enterlng lnto contract for thi.s work,shal-1 furnlsh all labor and materlal as required to producea finlshed, operable and acceptable product to the owners,consistent wlth the drawlngs and speclflcatlons for the work.If areas of work and material are not clear after a reviewof the contract documents, such items must be brought to bheattentlon of the owner prlor to slgning the contract with thegeneral contractor.
(i) CorreLation ol Documents: Drawlngs and specifications are
@tary. Portions of the work whichcan best be il-l-ustrated graphlcally by the drawlngs are de-picted on the drawlngs. All- ltems and labor necessary to
-4-
erect a complete bulldlng as mentioned generally above,shal1 be furnlshed whether speclfically mentioned ornot. In case of a dlsagreement between drawings andspecificatlons, the better quality or greater quantlty
of work or materlal shal1 be the basls of contract. Inthe event of a dlsagreement between two drawings on thearchltectural plans, the larger scale drawing shall bethe basis of contract, or the greater quantity or quality
of material and 1abor. In the event of a disagreement
between structural and architecturaf documents, thestructural sha11 have precedence. In all cases, thearchitect sha11 be the final source of declsion and,/or
adJustment of a dlsagreement.
(j ) Detail and Worklqg Drawings: Additional detaif and work-
lng drawings w111 be furnlshed in ampllficatlon of thecontract documents as they may be required. All suchaddltional- dnawings as issued by the architect shall havethe same force as those which accompany these speciflca-tions.
(k) Code and Bullding Inspectorl It shal1 be the clear intent
of the owner that upon concfuslon of constructlon, thlsproject sha1l be inspected by the Va11 Bullding Inspector
to the conclusion that a Certlflcate of Ocggpansd\ will be
issued for the work. The building ls of.,Type l-.donstructlonthroughout, Group H occupancy, and has uF6G56-eslgned to meet
such regulatlons as out]ined by the 1973 edltlon of the
Unlform Bu1ld1ng Code and any appurtenant codes or ordlnancesof Val1, Coforado. If there are materlals, or work lndicatedln these documents, known by subcontractors to be ln violatlonof this code, such items shoufd be brought to the lmmediateattention of the owner and archltect before enterlng lnto
eontract wlth the owner. The owner wl1l- assume that alf such
conditlons have been brought to hls attention before the
comnencement of any subcontractorr s work.
