Longitudinal Clause Samples

A Longitudinal clause establishes terms for ongoing or repeated actions, obligations, or assessments over a period of time within an agreement. This clause typically applies to situations where performance, data collection, or compliance must be monitored or fulfilled at regular intervals, such as periodic reporting, recurring payments, or ongoing service delivery. Its core function is to ensure that responsibilities are maintained consistently throughout the contract duration, thereby providing structure and accountability for long-term or recurring commitments.
Longitudinal. Delete the second paragraph and Substitute the following: “Unless otherwise permitted in the contract documents, the HMA shall be laid such that no significant pavement surface disturbance is created between active lanes at the completion of the working day. The maximum longitudinal edge elevation (step) change shall be 0.5”. For mill and repaving work, HMA top course shall be laid in such a way to insure the requirements of surface tolerance and ride quality result. Minor deviations in elevation (<1 inch) of the longitudinal joint (an edge) may occur when paving against existing (pre-contract) asphalt. When this edge is exposed, appropriate warning signs and temporary striping shall be provided as shown on the detail “Thruway Traffic Plans for Uneven Lanes”. Approval to leave any type of surface disturbance or an exposed edge must be requested in writing in advance of paving operations. If approval is granted to leave a longitudinal pavement joint, of any type, exposed to traffic, the paving operation shall be planned so the edge is only exposed to traffic for one day/night and the adjacent lane shall be paved during the next allowable paving period in accordance with the Schedule and Suspension of Work restrictions of the contract. Weekend evenings are considered allowable paving periods when allowed by the Schedule and Suspension of Work. Therefore, the Contractor shall pave on a weekend evening if an edge is exposed.”
Longitudinal. During the transfer of control, longitudinal separation of not less than 10 minutes using the Mach Number Technique shall be used between aircraft flying at the same altitude on the same ATS route.
Longitudinal acceleration means the component of the vector acceleration of a point in the vehicle in the x-direction. The longitudinal acceleration is positive in the direction of forward vehicle travel.
Longitudinal. 2.3.1.1 The minimum longitudinal separation applicable between flights that are to be transferred at the same cruising level on the same ATS route or routes or convergent trajectories, not be less than that specified in each case in Appendix 1 to this Letter of Agreement.
Longitudinal. During the transfer of control the minimum longitudinal separation to be used between aircraft flying at the same altitude on the same ATS route shall be ten (10) minutes.
Longitudinal. 2.3.1.1 Applicable separation shall be a fifteen (15) minute minimum longitudinal separation with the utilisation of the Mach number technique (MNT) at FL 250 and above between turbojet aircraft at the same flight level on the same route crossing the common boundary. 2.3.1.2 Applicable longitudinal separation between aircraft in supersonic flight shall be applied as specified in ICAO Doc, 7030. 2.3.1.3 In all other circumstances the longitudinal separation minima shall be twenty (20) minutes.
