Grading Operations Sample Clauses
The Grading Operations clause defines the procedures and standards for evaluating, sorting, or classifying materials, products, or work according to specified criteria. In practice, this clause outlines who is responsible for performing grading, the methods or benchmarks to be used, and the timing or frequency of such operations. For example, it may require that delivered goods be inspected and graded upon arrival to ensure they meet contractual quality standards. The core function of this clause is to ensure consistency and quality control by establishing clear expectations for how grading is conducted, thereby reducing disputes over the acceptability of materials or work.
Grading Operations. When the Design-Builder elects to complete the rough grading operations for the entire Project or exceed the length of one full day’s surfacing operations, the rough grade shall be machined to a uniform slope from the top edge of the existing pavement to the ditch line. When the surface is to be widened on both sides of the existing pavement, construction operations involving grading or paving shall not be conducted simultaneously on sections directly opposite each other. The surface of pavement shall be kept free from soil and other materials that might be hazardous to traffic. Prior to opening of new pavement to traffic, shoulders shall be roughly dressed for a distance of three (3) feet from the edge of the paved surface.
