GRANULAR MATERIAL Clause Samples
The 'Granular Material' clause defines the standards and requirements for the supply, quality, and use of granular materials—such as sand, gravel, or crushed stone—on a construction project. It typically specifies acceptable material types, grading, compaction, and testing procedures to ensure the materials meet project specifications. By setting these clear criteria, the clause helps ensure structural integrity and performance, while minimizing disputes over material suitability and compliance.
