COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. It is the intent of the Contract Documents to describe a functionally complete Project (or part thereof) to be constructed in accordance with the Contract Documents. The Contract Documents are complementary: any requirement occurring in one document is as binding as though occurring in all. In the event of conflict or discrepancy the priorities stated in the following Subsections shall govern:
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by one shall be as binding as if required by all. For example, any provision contained in Plans that is not in the Specifications (or vice versa) shall be construed as being in both. If there is any inconsistency in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall provide the better quality of and/or the correct quantity of the Work or Materials at issue, and such shall be the standard of workmanship and Materials throughout corresponding parts of the Work in a manner that is satisfactory to Owner. If any Work to be performed is not specifically included in the Contract Documents but is reasonably necessary or inferable to accomplish the purpose of the Contract, then it will be deemed to be included in the Work to the same extent as if specifically described in the Contract Documents. Where compliance with two (2) or more reference standards are specified and reference standards establish different or conflicting requirements for minimum quantities or quality levels, the more restrictive/most stringent interpretation shall govern. Similarly, in case of a conflict within a part of the Contract Documents or other documents or laws, the provision with the more restrictive/most stringent interpretation shall govern. For example and not by way of limitation, calculated dimensions will govern over scaled dimensions; Contract Forms shall govern over Special Provisions, Special Provisions shall govern over General Provisions, General Provisions shall govern over Technical Specifications/Provisions, Technical Specification/Provisions shall govern over Plans, cited standards for materials or testing, and cited FAA advisory circulars (if applicable). Conflicts in the application or interpretation of any parts of the Contract Documents shall be interpreted in accordance with the following order of precedence (the first listed being the highest precedence); however, documents shall be construed to be consistent and harmonized to the greatest extent feasible with resort to order of precedence only in the case of clear express conflict: applicable laws and regulations, permits, Modifications, the Contract, the Performance Bond, the Payment Bond, any required insurance certificates, Special Provisions, these General Provisions, Technical Specifications/Provisions, the Design Criteria Package, if any, and any addenda issued to Bidders, the Instruments of Service, Plans and Specifications, and, lastly, the Proposal,...
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. All contract documents are integral parts of the Contract; a requirement occurring in one is as binding as though occurring in all. All parts of the Contract are complementary and describe and provide for a complete work. In cases of discrepancy, the governing order of the documents is as follows:
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. It is the responsibility of the Consultant team to coordinate the design of the architectural, structural, plumbing, HVAC and electrical work so that interference among and within the trades’ work can be avoided. For example, be sure to coordinate projection screens vs. emergency/night lights or wall air supply grilles, power outlets, special systems or light switches vs. bulletin and white boards, thermostats vs. furniture, electrical and data outlets vs. furniture or casework, data or power outlets vs. casework, etc. NO electrical or data outlets are to be located within cabinets without specific approval of, or direction by, the Owner. DG-12. No work is to be indicated as “By Others”. Work to be provided by another trade or section within contract work shall be labeled with that trade or section of the Drawings/Specifications that will provide the work. All work not included in the contract preferably should be labeled by the party who will supply the work, or indicated as “N.I.C./Not in Contract”. DG-12. Consultant and sub-consultants to meet with Contractor to review proposed building systems, products, approaches, constructability, etc. and evaluate alternatives as needed to obtain the best product possible to meet the Owner's needs and budget.
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. A. The CM/GC shall review the drawings and specifications as they are being prepared, recommending alternative solutions whenever design details affect costs, construction feasibility or schedules. The CM/GC shall notify the Project Designer and the CITY in writing, as appropriate, upon observing any features in the plans or specifications, which appear to be ambiguous, confusing, conflicting or erroneous.
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. 2.4.1 Construction Manager shall coordinate Contract Documents by consulting with the University and the Consultant regarding Drawings and Specifications as they are being prepared, and recommending alternative solutions whenever design details affect construction feasibility, cost, or schedules without, however, assuming any of the Consultants responsibility for design.
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. The Design-Builder shall be responsible for the coordination of the Contract Documents. In the event of any inconsistency, conflict, or ambiguity between or among the Contract Documents, such inconsistency, conflict or ambiguity shall be interpreted as set forth in Section 3.1 of the Agreement. The Design-Builder shall not take advantage of any obvious or apparent ambiguity, conflict, error, or omission in the Contract Documents. If after beginning work the Design-Builder discovers an ambiguity, conflict, error, or omission in the Contract Documents, he shall immediately notify the Department of the corrections in accordance with the Contract Documents and make such corrections as necessary for fulfilling the intent of the Contract Documents before proceeding further with the effected work.
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. Review the drawings and specifications as they are being prepared, recommending alternative solutions whenever design details affect construction feasibility or schedules without, however, assuming any of the Architect’s customary responsibilities for design.
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. The Design-Builder shall be responsible for the coordination of the Contract Documents. In the event of any inconsistency, conflict, or ambiguity between or among the Contract Documents, such inconsistency, conflict or ambiguity shall be interpreted as set forth in Section 3.1 of the Agreement. The Design-Builder shall not take advantage of any obvious or apparent error or omission in the Contract Documents. If the Design-Builder discovers an error or omission, he shall immediately notify the Department of the corrections in accordance with the Contract Documents and make such corrections as necessary for fulfilling the intent of the Contract Documents.
COORDINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. The parties intend all Contract Documents to be complementary in their description of the Work. There are no intentional conflicts or omissions in the Contract Documents. Specific definitions of duties control more general expression of duties, however, if a direct conflict between provisions in the Contract Documents cannot be resolved in that fashion, where any inconsistency occurs between or among the Contract Documents, Change Orders shall take first precedence in the reverse order in which they become effective, this Agreement shall take second precedence, the Specifications shall take third precedence, the Plans shall take fourth precedence, and any contract design and engineering documents shall take fifth precedence. The failure of one or more of the Contract Documents to require an item of Work shall not constitute an inconsistency in their purpose, and the provisions of one or more of such documents calling for such Work shall apply. The Contract Documents shall prevail over all working drawings and purchase specifications. Working drawings or purchase specifications approved by Owner shall prevail over working drawings and purchase specifications not so approved.
