E. ENGINEER’s Review
1. ENGINEER will timely review and approve Shop Drawings and Samples in accordance with the schedule of Shop
Drawings and Sample submittals acceptable to ENGINEER. ENGINEER’s review and approval will be only to
determine if the items covered by the submittals will, after installation or incorporation in the Work, conform to
the information given in the Contract Documents and be compatible with the design concept of the completed
Project as a functioning whole as indicated by the Contract Documents.
2.ENGINEER’s review and approval will not extend to means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures of
construction (except where a particular means, method, technique, sequence, or procedure of construction is
specifically and expressly called for the Contract Documents) or to safety precautions or programs incident
thereto. The review and approval of a separate item as such will not indicate approval of the assembly in which the
item functions.
3. ENGINEER’s review and approval of Shop Drawings or Samples shall not relieve CONTRACTOR from responsibility
for any variation from the requirements of the Contract Documents unless CONTRACTOR has in writing called
ENGINEER’s attention to each such variation at the time of each submittal as required by paragraph 6.17.D.3 and
ENGINEER has given written approval of each such variation by specific written notation thereof incorporated in or
accompanying the Shop Drawing or Sample approval; nor will any approval by ENGINEER relieve CONTRACTOR
from responsibility for complying with the requirements of paragraph 6.17.D.1.
F. Resubmittal Procedures
1. CONTRACTOR shall make corrections required by ENGINEER and shall return the required number of corrected
copies of Shop Drawings and submit as required new Samples for review and approval. CONTRACTOR shall direct
specific attention in writing to revisions other than the corrections called for by ENGINEER on previous submittals.
