MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
PART 1 - GENERAL
1.1 MEASUREMENT OF QUANTITIES
A.
B.
Measurements will not be obtained for lump sum items.
ENGINEER shall verify measurements for all unit price Contract items to
evaluate progress payment applications, and to confirm final quantities of
Work in place prior to the final payment of the Contract based upon digital
Record Drawing provided by CONTRACTOR.
All units of measurement shall be standard United States units as applied to
the specific items of work and as interpreted by ENGINEER. Area
measurements shall be calculated in PLAN VIEW. Additional compensation for
slope adjustments will not be considered.
12 PAYMENT
A.
For lump sum payment items, payments to CONTRACTOR will be based upon
CONTRACTOR’s estimate of percentage completion of the lump sum tasks
unless stated otherwise in the Bid Item Definitions. The estimate shall be
based on approximated quantities of Work completed in accordance with the
Drawings and Specifications and shall be reviewed and approved by
ENGINEER.
For non-lump sum payment items, payments to CONTRACTOR will be made for
the actual quantities of Work completed and accepted in accordance with the
Drawings and Specifications. Upon completion of the construction, if these
actual quantities show either an increase or a decrease from the quantities
given in the Bid Form, then the Contract unit prices will still prevail, except as
provided Parts 1.5 and 1.6 of this Section.
CONTRACTOR shall accept as compensation, full payment for furnishing all
materials, labor, tools, equipment, and incidentals necessary to complete the
Work and for performing all Work contemplated and embraced by the
Contract. The payment shall be made with the prices contained in the Bid
Form, which shall include compensation for all loss or damage that may result
from the nature of the Work, or from the action of the elements, or from any
unforeseen difficulties that may be encountered during the execution of the
Work and until its final acceptance by ENGINEER, and for all risks of every
description, connected with the execution of the Work, except as provided
herein; also for all expenses incurred in consequence of the suspension of the
Work as herein authorized.
