Handhole Clause Samples
A Handhole clause defines the requirements and specifications for the installation and use of handholes in a construction or utility project. Typically, it outlines the size, material, placement, and access standards for handholes, which are underground enclosures used to house and provide access to cables, conduits, or other utilities. For example, the clause may require that handholes be installed at specific intervals along a cable route and be constructed to withstand certain load ratings. The core function of this clause is to ensure safe, accessible, and durable access points for maintenance and inspection of underground utilities, thereby facilitating ongoing operations and minimizing future disruptions.
