3.1 CONCRETE PATCHING PLACEMENT
A. Concrete Removal — General:
1. All unsound concrete in repair areas shall be removed down to sound concrete.
Removal of concrete shall extend 2"-4" beyond the outer boundary of unsound
concrete. Concrete shall be removed completely around exposed reinforcing steel to
provide a minimum of 3/4" clearance between concrete and reinforcement. If sound
concrete is reached before exposing more than half of the reinforcing bar, it is not
necessary to extend concrete removal around entire bar.
2. The repair areas shall generally be rectangular shaped in plain view and exhibit a
generally uniform depth. Provide a minimum 1/4" deep vertical edge at the perimeter
of the repair area by sawcutting or chipping. Featheredges are not permitted. The
edges of the repair area shall be perpendicular or slightly undercut. During sawcutting,
exercise caution to avoid damaging existing reinforcement near the surface of the
concrete. Prior to sawcutting, the Contractor shall remove sufficient concrete to
determine both the location and the depth of the existing reinforcement. Exercise
caution to avoid damaging the existing reinforcement located near the surface of the
concrete.
3. During the removal process, the Contractor shall exercise care to avoid cracking and
otherwise damaging surrounding sound concrete, reinforcement, anchored or
embedded items, etc.
B. Horizontal Patching:
1. Removal: All debris shall be removed promptly by the Contractor. All reinforcing
33
Agreement No. 6765
encountered shall be left in place, cleaned, and adjusted as may be necessary to provide
for good cover after patching.
2. The Contractor shall exercise extreme caution in his removal operation so as not to
disturb anyexisting reinforcing, anchor plates, etc.
3. Surface Preparation. Substrate must be sound, clean, free from oil, solvents, paint, dust
and foreign material. Chip and/or abrade painted concrete to expose clean surfaces.
Scrub dirty surfaces with heavy duty caustic detergent and clear water flush. All areas to
receive concrete patching shall be sand blasted, or as any option may be acid etched to
remove laitance and efflorescence. If acid etched, neutralize with ammonia and clear
water rinse twice.
4. Immediately prior to placing concrete patching mix, the slabs shall be thoroughly
soaked with water. Free water shall be removed shortly before placing finish.
5. Installation. A thin cement wash proportioned of 15 pounds (7 kg) of Portland cement
to 4 gallons (15 L) of water shall be applied to the damp, but not wet, surface of the
concrete slab to receive the concrete patching mix just prior to the applications. Limit
application of cement wash to an area that can be covered with patching mortar before
cement wash dries.
6. Concrete patching mixture shall be applied over the cement wash while the wash is still
wet and/or tacky. If the wash has hardened, another application must be made. Concrete
patching shall be applied and troweled in, so as to form a dense, solid overlay with a
uniform, granular surface. Sprinkle in sand as may be necessary to prevent glossy,
slippery surfaces where there will be pedestrian and/or vehicle traffic. As the patching
work is completed, it shall be checked with straight -edges and level to assure that all
surfaces will drain freely; correct as may be necessary before the material sets up.
C. Vertical Patching:
1. General. All work shall be in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
2. Removal. The Contractor shall remove all debris promptly. All reinforcing encountered
shall be left in place cleaned and adjusted as may be necessary to provide for good
cover after patching.
3. The Contractor shall exercise extreme caution in his removal operation so not to
disturb any existing reinforcing, anchor plates, etc.
4. Surface Preparation. Substrate must be sound, clean, free from oil, solvents, dust and
foreign material. Chip and/or abrade oil saturated concrete to expose clean surfaces. The
perimeter of each area to be patched shall be saw -cut to provide vertical faces around the
patch. Depth shall be as directed by the Engineer. Loose concrete and rust on steel rods
should be removed by sandblasting, chisel and hammer, or wire brush, as applicable.
Heavy particles of concrete should be removed by air or electric hammer. Wash clean
with water from hose before filling with patching material.
5. First coat shall be brush applied and worked under any exposed reinforcing bars and
shall cover the complete patched area. Apply within ten minutes after the liquid has been
added.
6. Patching mortar shall be trowel applied in 1/2" to 1" (12 — 25 mm) thick layers. Apply
within five to ten minutes after liquid is added to the mix. Apply in successive 1 /2" to V
(12 —25 mm) layers. Scratch previous layer, cool with water and apply successive layer
within 15 to 20 minutes. if patch gets hot and turns light gray, cool by wetting. Build up
patch to restore original surface plane, or profile. As the patching work is completed, it
shall be checked with straight -edges and level to assure that all surfaces are in accurate
alignment; correct as may be necessary before the material sets up. Keep patch damp 20
to 30 minutes after filling to complete curing.
3.2 CONCRETE REPAIR WORK
A. Splicing Bars: New reinforcing steel shall be clean and shall be free from paint, oil, grease,
form coating, mortar, dirt, mill scale, rust, etc. A thin film of rust may be permitted at the

shall be used. Coordinate this work with the mechanical and electrical work. Work
embedded shall be securely fastened in place.
E. Concrete shall be placed as soon as practicable after mixing. It shall be deposited in such
manner as to cause no separation or segregation of the ingredients. Concrete shall not be
dropped any considerable distance (not over four feet) through space. It shall not be
deposited in large quantities at one place and permitted to run or be worked any
considerable distance, but shall be deposited in its final position as nearly as practicable.
Concrete shall be rammed, spaded and agitated by suitable tools so as to produce a
thoroughly compacted concrete of maximum density; and so that the concrete will present a
smooth, finished, unbroken mortar surface without exposed stone when the forms are
removed. Use power vibrators wherever applicable, and provide a spare vibrator at the site
when starting each concrete placement operation.
F. A thin cement wash proportioned of 15 pounds (7 kg) of Portland cement to 4 gallons (15
L) of water shall be applied to the dampened, but not wet, edges of the existing concrete
slab.
G. The temperature of the mixed cement shall not vary more than 5 degrees C (10 degrees F)
plus or minus from the temperature of the concrete forming the slab which is to receive the
cement patch.

Instructions on how to properly complete a Door Measurement Guide
Overview:
The Door Measurement Guide is to be used when specific measurements are not readily available to be printedin the
Architectural Documents. This is typically due to existing field conditions that must be verified by the contractor.
These measurements could be anything such as door height and width, wall thickness, hinge spacing, or any other
measurement necessary to procure proper fitting material for a door opening.
Objective:
The Door Measurement Guide is used to obtain the exact proper measurements of an opening for correct and timely
procurement. This is to be completed at the first available time frame due to varying lead tirnes based on the specific
results of the Door Measurement Guide.
Instructions:
Please fill out all measurements and information in order to verify all field conditions and eliminate confusion. It is
critical that all pertinent measurements are recorded on the Door Measurement Guide in exact measurements.
Approximations or rounding dimensions can cause the wrong products to be ordered. Measurements should be
made down to the 32nd of an inch.
Soffit
1-9/16 Varies 1°1 'I65-E�
Explanation of Measurements and terms:
Unless otherwise noted all measurements are to be in inches starting
from the underside of the frame head (the rabbet, not the stop/soffit, see
diagram). n �� N
A — Top hinge — Measure down to the top of the first hinge. I Throat opening (wall Thickness)
13— 2nd hinge — Measure down to the top of the 2nd hinge.
C— 3rd hinge — Measure down to the top of the 3rd hinge. Jamb Depth
D — 4th hinge (if applicable) — Measure down to the top of the 4th hinge.
E — Deadbolt Strike (if applicable) — Measure down to the centerline of the deadbolt strike on the frame
F — Lock Strike - Measure down to the centerline of the strike on the frame
G — Door opening height — Measure down to the finished floor material or top of threshold
H — Hinge Height — Measure from the top of the hinge to the bottom of the hinge
I, J and K — Door opening Width — Measure the width of the door pocket the door must fit into (from hinge rabbet to
strike rabbet).
L — Undercut of door — Measure from the top of the floor material to the bottom of the door
It is also important to indicate the type of stud used on the
wall. This information is not always visible. This is important
so the new frame arrives with the correct anchors to set the
frame in the wall for that specific wall construction type.

PART 3 — EXECUTION
3.1 EXAMINATION
A. Examine substrates where tile will be installed for compliance with requirements for installation tolerances and
other conditions effecting performance of installed tile. Before tiling concrete surfaces saturated dry (SSD), free
of standing water verify that substrates for setting tile are well cured, structurally sound dry, clean, and free from
oil or waxy films, curing compounds or other coatings and surface treatments. Nonstructural shrinkage cracks
should be pretreated with a crack suppression membrane (to prevent telegraphing of cracks through the finished
tile installation) ANSI Al18.12.
B. Do not proceed with installation until unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected. Commencement
of work signifies acceptance of substrate and instal lationconditions.
3.2 PR
EPARATION
A. Substrate Preparation: Prepare and clean substrate in accordance with installation standards and
manufacturer's instructions, and as follows:
1. Remove protrusions, bumps and ridges by grinding or chipping.
2. Repair, fill, and level cracks, holes, depressions and rough or chipped areas in substrate using patching
material recommended by setting materials manufacturer.
3. Slab to have light broom finish when tile is installed by thin -set method.
4. Before tiling, verify that all surfaces to be tiled are structurally sound true to plane, and fall within
maximum variations shown below: Ensure that the substrate is within the following tolerances:
a. Horizontal surfaces (floors) - Maximum variation in substrate shall not exceed 1 /4 " in ten feet*
from required plane, depending on substrate.
b. Vertical surfaces (walls) - Maximum variation in substrate shall not exceed 1/4 " in ten feet*
from the required plane, depending on substrate.
When wising large format defined wy I C" w i NAJ1d'b'ooh ;s tikes wi0i at least one edge 15" in ken *t'h orr.
renter; a more stringent tolterange- i.8" in 1,0 116 or 1/in 2, "' when measure from the high points on the,
surface is required.
Report all unacceptable surfaces to the architect in writing, and do not tile such surfaces until they are
leveled enough to meet above requirements.
B. Jobsite Blending: Blend tiles before installing in accordance with reference standards to produce an even range
and distribution of color and finish.
3.3 INSTALLATION,
A. Manufacturers' Instructions: Perform work in compliance with standard accepted installation guidelines,
Crossville Porcelain Stone/USA instructions and setting materials manufacturers' instructions.
B. Comply with appropriate ANSI A108-2014 specification and current Tile Council of North America
Handbook (TCNA) for appropriate method of installation for each specification. For thin set adhesive mortar
application use following technique:
1. With the flat side of trowel, key mortar into substrate.
2. Using the appropriate size trowel, comb mortar in one direction with notched side of thetrowel.
92
Agreement No. 6765
3. Set tile with a sliding motion, perpendicular to the mortar ridges.
4. Obtain as near 100% coverage as possible of mortar to tile.
5. Mortar coverage shall be no less than 85% and shall be sufficiently distributed to give full support under
all corners and edges of the tile.
6. Note: 95-100% coverage is mandatory for wet and exterior areas. Periodically, remove sheets or individual
tiles to assure proper bond coverage consistent with industry specifications.
C. Installing Tile:
1. Install tile in pattern indicated. Align joints when adjoining tiles on floor, base, walls, and trim are same
size. Adjust to minimize tile cutting and to avoid tile less than half size.
2. When possible, smooth cut edges of tile and/or use appropriate cutter or wet saw to produce smooth cuts.
Provide straight cuts which align with adjacent materials.
3. Extend tile into recesses and under equipment and fixtures to form a complete covering without
interruption.
4. Terminate tile neatly at obstructions, edges, and corners, without disruption of pattern or joint alignment.
5. Provide tile joints uniform in width, subject to variance in tolerance allowed in tile size. Make joints
smooth and even, without voids, cracks, or excess mortar or grout.
6. Mix mortar in strict accordance with manufacturer's recommendations.
7. Apply setting material in accordance with manufacturer's directions and install tile before mortar has
started initial cure. For thin set mortar application, use a notch trowel that will achieve the
recommended coverage of mortar after tiles have been installed. Reference standard coverage
information and follow manufacturer's recommendations for trowel size when using mortar.
8. Do not spread more material than can be covered within 10 to 15 minutes. If "skinning" occurs, remove
mortar and spread fresh material. Spread mortar with notches running in one direction that shall be
perpendicular to the pressing, pushing and pulling of tile during placement.
9. Place tile in fresh mortar, press, push and pull the tile slightly to achieve as near 100% coverage and contact
of tile with setting material and substrate as possible. The coverage shall be no less than 85% and be
sufficiently distributed to give full support of the tile. Make sure that all corners and edges are well
supported with mortar. Leave no hollow corners or edges. NOTE: 95-100% coverage is mandatory for wet
or exterior areas. A skim coat ("back -butter") of mortar can be placed onto the entire back of the tile using a
trowel in order to assist in optimum adhesion and coverage of the mortar being used.
10. Ensure there is a minimum 1/8" of mortar between tile and substrate after proper bedding. Installer must
periodically remove sheets or individual tiles to assure proper bond coverage consistent with industry
specifications. If coverage is found to be insufficient, usea larger size notch trowel.
11. Use a beating block and hammer or rubber mallet so that faces and edges of individual tiles are flush
and level with faces and edges of adjacent tiles, and to reduce lippage.
12. For running bond/brick joint patterns utilizing tiles (square or rectangular) where the side being offset is
greater than 18" (nominal dimension), the running bond offset will be a maximum of 33% unless
otherwise specified by the tile manufacturer. If an offset greater than 33% is specified, specifier and
owner must approve mock-up and lippage.
D. Grouting:
1. Install grout in accordance with ANSI A108.10, A108.6, A108.8, A108.9-2010 correlating to grout type
chosen and manufacturer's recommendations.
2. Mix grout material in strict accordance with manufacturer's directions.
3. Apply grout to produce full, smooth grout joints of uniform width, and free of voids and gaps.
4. Before grouting entire area do a test area to assure there will be no permanent staining or
discoloration of the tile and to verify that the grout is easily removed from the surface. If necessary,
pre -coat exposed surfaces of tile with a grout release as recommended by the manufacturer, as this
will facilitate removal of the grout.
5. Cure all setting and grouting materials in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations.
E. Cleaning and Protection:
1. If one has been used, remove grout release and clean tile surfaces so they are free of grout residue and
93
Agreement No. 6765
foreign matter, in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. If a grout haze or residue remains, use a
suitable grout haze remover or cleaner and contact grout manufacturer for recommendations. Flush
surface with clean water before and after cleaning. Do not use harsh hydrochloric, muriatic or sulfuric
acid or acid -based cleaners to clean glazed tiles or tiles grouted with latex modified grout.
2. When a heavy residue of Portland cement grout is present, acceptable tile cleaning acids may be used.
However, the grout should be allowed to cure a minimum of 10 days before this aggressive cleaning
method is employed. Tile and grout shall be soaked with water before cleaning. In the absence of a
recommendation from the grout manufacturer, acid cleaning may be done with a saturated solution of
phosphoric or sulfamic acid, mixed in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations.
3. Protect all floor tile installations with clean construction paper or other heavy covering during construction
period to prevent staining or damage. After cleaning, provide protective covering and maintain conditions
to protect tile work from damage or deterioration. Where tiled surfaces will be subject to equipment or
wheel traffic or heavy construction traffic, and during move -in of furniture and equipment, cover protective
covering with 1/4" hardboard, plywood or similar material. No foot or wheel traffic permitted on floor for
at least 3 days after grouting. Owner/specifier is responsible for protecting tile from damage including
allowing sufficient time for installed materials to cure properly typically 30-45 days is required for full
cure of thin set bonding mortars.
4. Leave finished installation clean and free of cracked, chipped, broken, un-bonded, and
otherwise defective tile work.

2-3 SUBCONTRACTS
Subsection 2-3 Subcontractors of Greenbook is deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following subsection.
2-3.1 GENERAL
Except as provided in PCC §§ 4100 et. seq., each bidder will file with its bid the
name and location of the place of business of each subcontractor who will
perform work or labor or render service to the prime contractor in or about the
construction of the work or improvement, or a subcontractor licensed by the
State of California who, under subcontract to the prime contractor, specifically
fabricates and installs a portion of the work or improvement according to
detailed drawings contained in the plans and specifications, in an amount in
excess of one-half of one percent of the prime contractor's total bid. Only one
subcontractor will be listed for each portion of the work, which portion will be
defined in the bid. In each instance, the nature and extent of the work to be
sublet will be described. The failure of the Contractor to specify a subcontractor,
or the listing of more than one subcontractor for the same portion of the work,
constitutes an agreement by the Contractor that it is fully qualified to perform
that portion itself and that it will perform that portion itself.
The Contractor must have the City Council's written consent to substitute a
subcontractor other than that designated in the original bid, to permit any
subcontract to be assigned or transferred, or to allow a subcontract to be
performed by other than the original subcontractor.
Subcontracting of work for which no subcontractor was designated in the
original bid, and which is more than one-half of one percent of the work, will be
allowed only in cases of public emergency or necessity, and then only after a
KHB20151022

Agreement No. 6765
finding reduced to writing as a public record of the City Council setting forth the
facts constituting the emergency or necessity.
Violation of any of the above provisions will be considered a breach of the
Contract, and the City may terminate the Contractor's control over the Work,
cancel the contract, or assess the Contractor a penalty of not more than ten
percent of the subcontract involved.
All persons engaged in the work, including subcontractors and their employees
will be considered as employees of the Contractor. The Contractor will be solely
responsible for and have control over construction means, methods,
techniques, sequences, procedures, and the coordination of all portions of the
Work. The City will deal directly with, and make all payments to, the prime
Contractor.
When subcontracted work is not being prosecuted in a satisfactory manner, the
Contractor will be notified to take corrective action. The Engineer may report
the facts to the City Council. If the City Council so orders, and on receipt by the
Contractor of written instructions from the Engineer, the subcontractor will be
removed immediately from the Work. That subcontractor will not again be
employed on the Work.
If licensure or proper licensure is controverted, then proof of licensure pursuant
to this section must be made by production of a verified certificate of licensure
from the Contractors' State License Board which establishes that the individual
or entity bringing the action was duly licensed in the proper classification of
contractors at all times during the performance of any act or contract covered
by the action. Nothing in this subdivision requires any person or entity
controverting licensure or proper licensure to produce a verified certificate.
When licensure or proper licensure is controverted, the burden of proof to
establish licensure or proper licensure is on the licensee.
2-3.2 ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITY
Add the following to Subsection 2-3.2 Additional Responsibility:
The Contractor will submit experience statements for each subcontractor who
will perform contract work that amounts to more than ten percent (10%) of the

existing utilities that may affect the cost of the Work will be shown on the Plans
or indicated in the Specifications, the City does not warrant the completeness
or accuracy of such information.
The Contractor will carefully study and compare each of the Contract
Documents with the others and with information furnished by the City and will
promptly report in writing to the Engineer any errors, inconsistencies, or
omissions in the Contract Documents or inconsistencies with applicable law
observed by the Contractor.
The Contractor will take field measurements, verify field conditions, perform soil
investigations, and carefully compare with the Contract Documents such field
measurements, conditions, and other information known to the Contractor
before commencing the Work. Errors, inconsistencies, or omissions discovered

identified correctly or not shown in the contract plans or specifications by the
City, the Contractor will immediately notify the City and utility owner in writing.
5-4 RELOCATION
The following subsection is added to Subsection 5-4 of the Greenbook.
5-4.1 RESPONSIBILITY OF UTILITY REMOVAL OR RELOCATION
The City will be responsible to arrange for the removal, repair, or relocation of

to do such repairs or relocation.

5-5 DELAYS
The following paragraphs are added to Subsection 5-5 of the Greenbook.
Actual loss, as used in this Subsection, will be understood to include no items
of expense other than idle time of equipment and necessary payments for idle
time of workers, cost of extra moving of equipment, and cost of longer hauls.
Compensation for idle time of equipment and idle time of workers will be
determined by Subsection 5-5.1 and no markup will be added in either case for
overhead and profit. The cost of extra moving of equipment and the cost of
longer hauls will be paid for as extra work.
The following subsection is added to Subsection 5-5 of the Greenbook.
5-5.1 CALCULATING IDLE TIME
Equipment idle time will calculated in accordance with Subsection 3-3.2.2 and
based upon the actual normal working time during which the delay condition
exists, but in no case will exceed 8 hours in any one day. The days for which
compensation will be paid will be the calendar days, excluding Saturdays,
Sundays and legal holidays, during the existence of the delay.
Worker idle time will be calculated in accordance with Subsection 3-3.2.2.
6-1 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND COMMENCEMENT OF WORK
Section 6-1, Construction Schedule and Commencement of Work, is deleted in
its entirety and replaced by the following subsections.
Pre -Construction Meeting:
After contract award, the City will arrange for a pre -construction meeting to
discuss the construction of the project. City will invite utility agencies and the
contractor will arrange for all of its sub -contractors to attend the meeting.
6-1.1 CONTRACT SCHEDULE
After notification of award and before starting any work, the Contractor will
submit a Contract Schedule to the Engineer for review, as required by these
Specifications within fifteen (15) calendar days of award.
6-1.2 CONTENT OF CONTRACT SCHEDULE
The Contract Schedule, and any updated Contract Schedule, will meet the
following requirements:
KHB20151022
Page 12 of 36
Agreement No. 6765
1 Schedules must be suitable for monitoring progress of the Work.
Z Schedules must provide necessary data about the time for the
Engineer's decisions.
3. Schedules must be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate adequate
planning for the Work.
4. Schedules must represent a practical plan to complete the Work within
the Contract Time.
5. Schedules must show the critical path method for completing the Work.
The Engineer's review of the form and general content of the Contract
Schedule and any updated Contract Schedules is only for the purpose of
determining if the listed requirements are satisfied, nothing more.
6-1.3 EFFECT OF CONTRACT SCHEDULE
The Contract Schedule, and any updated Contract Schedules, will represent a
practical plan to complete the Work within the Contract Time. Extension of any
schedule beyond the Contract Time will not be acceptable. Schedules showing
the Work completed in less than the Contract may be acceptable if judged by
the Engineer to be practical. Acceptance of such a schedule by the Engineer
will not change the Contract Time. The Contract Time, not the Contract
Schedule, will control in determining liquidated damages payable by the
Contractor and in determining any delay.
If a schedule showing the Work completed in less than the Contract Time is
accepted, the Contractor will not be entitled to extensions of the Contract Time
for Excusable Delays or Compensable Delays or to adjustments of the Contract
Sum for Compensable Delays until such delays extend the completion of the
Work beyond the expiration of the Contract Time.
The Contractor will plan, develop, supervise, control, and coordinate the
performance of the Work so that its progress and the sequence and timing of
Work activities conform to the current accepted Contract Schedule. The
Contractor will continuously obtain from Subcontractors information and data
about the planning for and progress of the Work and the delivery of equipment,
will coordinate and integrate such information and data into updated Contract
Schedules, and will monitor the progress of the Work and the delivery of
equipment. The Contractor will act as the expeditor of potential and actual
delays, interruptions, hindrances, or disruptions for its own forces and those
forces of Subcontractors. The Contractor will cooperate with the Engineer in
developing the Contract Schedule and updated Contract Schedules.
The Engineer's review and comments about any schedule or scheduling data
will not relieve the Contractor from its sole responsibility to plan for, perform,
and complete the'Work within the Contract Time. Review and comments about
any schedule will not transfer responsibility for any schedule to the Engineer or
KHB20151022
Page 13 of 36
Agreement No. 6765
the City nor imply their agreement with (1) any assumption upon which such
schedule is based or (2) any matter underlying or contained in such schedule.
The Engineer's failure to discover errors or omissions in schedules that have
been reviewed, or to inform the Contractor that the Contractor, Subcontractors,
or others are behind schedule, or to direct or enforce procedures for complying
with the Contract Schedule will not relieve the Contractor from its sole
responsibility to perform and complete the Work within the Contract Time and
will not be a cause for an adjustment of the Contract Time or the Contract Sum.
The Contractor will perform the Work in accordance with the currently accepted
Contract Schedule.
6-1.4 COMMENCEMENT OF CONTRACT TIME
The Contract Time will commence when the City issues a Notice to Proceed.
The Work will start on the date specified in the Notice to Proceed and within a
maximum of fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of the Notice to Proceed,
and be diligently prosecuted to completion with the time provided in the
Specifications.
6-4 DEFAULT BY CONTRACTOR
The language in subsection 6-4 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following subsections.
6-4.1 GENERAL
Should the Contractor fail to begin delivery of material and equipment, to
commence the Work within the time specified, to maintain the rate of delivery
of material, to execute the Work in the manner and at such locations as
specified, or fail to maintain the Work schedule (as determined by the current
accepted Contract Schedule) which will ensure the City's interest, or if the
Contractor is not carrying out the intent of the Contract, the City may serve
written notice upon the Contractor and the Surety on its Faithful Performance
Bond demanding satisfactory compliance with the Contract.
The City may terminate the Contractor's control over the Work without liability
for damages when, in the City's opinion, the Contractor is not complying in good
faith, has become insolvent, or has assigned or subcontracted any part of the
Work without the City's consent. Should such termination occur, the Contractor
will be paid the actual amount due based on Contract Unit Prices or lump sums
bid and the quantity and quality of the Work completed at the time of
termination, less damages caused to the City by the Contractor's action or
KHB20151022
Page 14 of 36
Agreement No. 6765
inaction.
In the event of such termination of control, the City may do any one, or
combination of, the following:
1. Serve written notice upon the Surety on its Faithful Performance Bond
demanding satisfactory compliance with the Contract. In such event the
Surety will, within 5 days, assume control and perform the Work as
successor to the Contractor;
2. The City may perform the Work itself and deduct the cost thereof from
any payment due to the Contractor;
3. The City may replace the Contractor with a different contractor to
complete the work and deduct the cost thereof from any payment due to
the Contractor.
Nothing herein will waive, or serve as a limitation upon, any additional remedy
the City may have under these Contract Documents or applicable law.
6-6 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME
Subsection 6-6 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following
subsections.
6-6.1 GENERAL
If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of the Contractor,
such delays will entitle the Contractor to an extension of time as provided
herein, but the Contractor will not be entitled to damages or additional payment
due to such delays except as otherwise provided herein. Excusable delay may
include: war, earthquakes exceeding 3.5 on the Richter Scale, government
regulation, labor disputes outside the contemplation of the parties, strikes
outside the contemplation of the parties, fires, floods, changes to the Work as
identified herein, or other specific events that may be further described in the
Specifications.
Delays to the project caused by labor disputes or strikes involving trades not
directly related to the project, or involving trades not affecting the project as a
whole will not warrant an extension of time.
The City will not grant an extension of time for a delay by the Contractor's
inability to obtain materials unless the Contractor furnishes to the Engineer
documentary proof. The proof must be provided in a timely manner in
accordance with the sequence of the Contractor's operations and accepted
construction schedule.
Should delays be caused by events other than those included herein, the
KHB20151022
Page 15 of 36
Agreement No. 6765
Engineer may, but is not required to, deem an extension of time to be in the
City's best interests.
6-6.2 EXTENSIONS OF TIME
If granted, extensions of time will be based upon the effect of delays to the
critical path of the Work as determined by the current accepted Contract
Schedule. Delays to minor portions of the Work that do not affect the critical
path will not be eligible for extensions of time.
6-6.3 PAYMENT FOR DELAYS TO CONTRACTOR
Any payment for compensable delay will be based upon actual costs as set
forth in Subsection 5-5 excluding, without limitation, what damages, if any, the
Contractor may have reasonably avoided. The Contractor understands that this
is the sole basis for recovering delay damages and explicitly waives any right
to calculate daily damages for office overhead, profit, or other purported loss,
using different formulas including, without limitation, the Eichleay Formula.
6-6.4 WRITTEN NOTICE AND REPORT
If the Contractor desires payment for a delay or an extension of time, it will give
the Engineer written notice of such request not later than the time limit set forth
in the Proposal for submitting a claim after the event or occurrence giving rise
to a delay claim. Failure to submit a written request within such amount of time
will result in the Contractor waiving its delay claim.
Any claim for payment or an extension of time must be in the form required by
the "Claims" sections of these Specifications.
In no event will the City grant the Contractor an extension of time if the delay is
within the Contract Time as identified by the Contract Documents.
KHB20151022

working day.
On workdays, Contractor's activities will be confined to the hours between 7:00
a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
Please see Section 6-7.5 below for weekend and holiday work restrictions.

6-8 COMPLETION AND ACCEPTANCE
Subsection 6-8 of the Greenbook is deleted in its entirety and replaced by the
following:
KHB20151022
Page 17 of 36
Agreement No. 6765
The Work will be inspected by the Engineer for acceptance upon the Engineer
receiving the Contractor's written assertion that the Work is complete.
If, in the Engineer's judgment, the Work is complete and is ready for
acceptance, the Engineer will accept the Work on behalf of the City in the
manner prescribed by the City. The Engineer will recommend approval of the
Notice of Completion to the City Council. This will be the date when the
Contractor is relieved from responsibility to protect the Work.
All work will be guaranteed by the Contractor against defective workmanship
and materials furnished by the Contractor for a period of 1 year from the date
the Work was completed. The Contractor will replace or repair any such
defective work in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer, after notice to do so
from the Engineer, and within the time specified in the notice. If the Contractor
fails to make such replacement or repairs within the time specified in the notice,
the City may perform this work and the Contractor's sureties will be liable for
the cost thereof.
6-8.1 GENERAL GUARANTY
The Contractor will remedy any defects in the work and pay for any damage to
other work resulting therefrom, which will appear within a period of one year
from the date of final acceptance of the work unless a longer period is specified.
The owner will give notice of observed defects with reasonable promptness.
6-9 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
Subsection 6-9, Liquidated Damages, of the Greenbook is deleted in its entirety
and replaced by the following subsections.
6-9.1 FAILURE TO COMPLETE WORK ON TIME
If all the work called for under the contract is not completed before or upon the
expiration of the Contract Time, the City will sustain damage. Since it is and will
be impracticable to determine the actual damage which the City will sustain in
the event of and by reason of such delay, it is therefore agreed that the
Contractor will pay to the City the sum specified in the Proposal for each and
every calendar day beyond the time prescribed to complete the work not as a
penalty, but as a predetermined liquidated damage. The Contractor agrees to
pay such liquidated damages as are herein provided, and in case the same are
not paid, agrees that the City may deduct the amount thereof from any money
due or that may become due to the Contractor under the contract.
Unless otherwise specified, liquidated damages will be $250 per calendar day.
6-11 DISPUTES AND CLAIMS; PROCEDURE

Agreement No. 6765
6-11.1 GENERAL
Consistent with PCC § 10240.6, "Claim" means a written demand or assertion

Contract Documents, payment of money, extension of time, or other relief with
respect to the Contract Documents, including a determination of disputes or
matters in question between the City and the Contractor arising out of or related
to the Contract Documents or the performance of the Work, and claims alleging
an unforeseen condition or an act, error, or omission by the City, the Engineer,

herein do not apply, to the following:
1. Claims respecting penalties for forfeitures prescribed by statute or
regulations, which a government agency is specifically authorized to
administer, settle, or determine.
Z Claims respecting personal injury, death, reimbursement, or other
compensation arising out of or resulting from liability for personal injury
or death.
3. Claims respecting a latent defect, breach of warranty, or guarantee to
repair.
4, Claims respecting stop notices.
If a Claim is subject to the Change Order procedures, the Claim arises upon
the issuance of a written final decision denying in whole or in part the
Contractor's Change Order Request. If a Claim is not subject to the Change
Order Procedures, the Claim arises when the Contractor discovers, or
reasonably should discover, the condition or event giving rise to the Claim.
6-11.2 FORM

are incurred. A cost record will be considered current if submitted
within seven (7) calendar days of the date the cost reflected in
the record is incurred. At the Engineer's request, claimed extra
costs may be subject to further verification procedures (such as
having an inspector verify the performance of alleged extra work
on a daily basis).
5. If the Claim involves an error or omission in the Contract Documents:
a) An affirmative representation that the error or omission was not
discovered before submitting a bid for the Contract; and

CONSEQUENCES."
6-11.3 CLAIMS SUBMITTED TO ENGINEER
Within thirty (30) calendar days after the circumstances giving rise to a Claim
occur, the Contractor will submit its Claim to the Engineer for a decision.
Regardless of any Claim submittal, or any dispute regarding a Claim, unless
otherwise directed by the Engineer, the Contractor will not cause any delay,
cessation, or termination of the Work, but will diligently proceed with the

the Contract Documents.
6-11.4 CLAIM IS PREREQUISITE TO OTHER REMEDY
The Contractor certifies that it is familiar with PCC § 10240.2 and understands

including the time limits set forth herein, it will waive any right to a remedy,
whether in law or equity, it might otherwise have pursuant to the Contract
Documents or applicable law.
6-11.5 DECISION ON CLAIMS

accordance with these Specifications. Should the Engineer require additional
supporting evidence to evaluate the claim, the Engineer will request such
additional information in writing. Any such requested data will be furnished not

request.
The Engineer will render a decision not later than 30 calendar days after either
receiving the Claim or the deadline for furnishing additional supporting data,
whichever is later. If the Claim amount is more than $50,000, the time period
will be extended to 60 days. If the Engineer fails to render a decision within the

Engineer's decision will be final and binding unless appealed in accordance
with these Specifications.
The Engineer's decision on a Claim will include a statement substantially as
follows:
"This is a decision pursuant to the General Specifications of your contract. If
you are dissatisfied with the decision, and have complied with the procedural
requirements for asserting claims, you may have the right to alternative dispute
resolution or litigation. Should you fail to take appropriate action within thirty
(30) calendar days of the date of this decision, the decision will become final
and binding and not subject to further appeal."
6-11.6APPEAL OF ENGINEER'S DECISION
Should the Contractor dispute the Engineer's decision, then the Contractor
must appeal that decision to the City's Public Works Director within thirty (30)
calendar days of receiving the Engineer's decision.
The Public Works Director will address disputes or claims within thirty (30)
calendar days after receiving such request and all necessary supporting data.
The Public Works Director's decision on the dispute or claim will be the City's
final decision.
If the Contractor disputes the Public Works Director's decision, then the
Contractor must demand alternative dispute resolution in accordance with this
Section and the PCC within thirty (30) calendar days of the City's final decision.
6-11.7 MEDIATION
If the City and the Contractor agree, disputes between the parties may be
submitted to non -binding mediation. If the parties cannot agree to an alternative
form of mediation, then mediation will be administered by the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Construction Industry Mediation
Rules, unless the use of such rules are waived by mutual stipulation of both
parties.
The parties may, but are not required to be, represented by counsel in
mediation.
The requirement for mediation will not alter or modify the time limitations
otherwise provided for claims and no conduct or settlement negotiation during
mediation will be considered a waiver of the City's right to assert that claim
procedures were not followed.
6-11.8ARBITRATIO
1.0 OZON
Page 22 of 36
Agreement No. 6765
If the City and Contractor do not agree to mediation, then a disputes will be
submitted to neutral non -binding (except as provided herein) arbitration.

be divided among the parties equally. Each party will pay its own counsel fees,
witness fees, and other expenses incurred for its own benefit.
6-11.9 WHEN ARBITRATION DECISION BECOMES BINDING
The decision rendered by the arbitrator will become binding upon the parties
unless appealed to the Los Angeles County Superior Court pursuant to PCC §
10240.12 within thirty (30) calendar days of the decision. If subsequent litigation
results in an award to the party appealing the arbitration that is less than or
equal to that of the arbitration decision, or if the litigation results in a decision
in favor of the nonappealing party, then the party appealing the arbitration will
pay the nonappealing party's attorney's fees and court costs.
6-11.10 APPEAL TO SUPERIOR COURT' WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL
Should a party timely object to the arbitration decision, it may file a petition with
the Los Angeles County Superior Court in accordance with California Code of

forth in CCP § 1286.2, the court may vacate, correct, or adjust an arbitration
award, and enter judgment in accordance with CCP § 1287.4, for any legal or
equitable basis including, without limitation, error of law. The court will apply
the substantial evidence standard of review when considering the appeal of an
objecting party.
BY EXECUTING THESE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, THE CONTRACTOR
AGREES TO HAVE DISPUTES OR CONTROVERSY CONCERNING THE
CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, PERFORMANCE, OR BREACH OF
THESE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING CLAIMS FOR BREACH OF
CONTRACT OR ISSUES OF BAD FAITH DECIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THIS SECTION 6-11. BOTH THE CITY AND THE CONTRACTOR WAIVE

Page 23 of 36
Agreement No. 6765
7-2.3 PREVAILING WAGES
The Contractor will post at appropriate conspicuous points at the site of the
project a schedule showing determinations of the Director of Industrial
Relations of the prevailing rate of per diem wages. It will be the Contractor's
responsibility to obtain copies of the prevailing rate of per diem wages. One
source that may be used is the California Department of Industrial Relations
website which is currently located at www.dir.ca.gov, or by calling the Prevailing
Wage Unit at (415) 703-4774.
Attention is directed to Labor Code §§ 1777.5, 1777.6 and 3098 concerning the
employment of apprentices by the Contractor or any subcontractor.
Labor Code § 1777.5 requires the Contractor or subcontractor employing
tradesmen in any apprenticeship occupation to apply to the joint apprenticeship
committee nearest the site of the public works project and which administers
the apprenticeship program in that trade for a certificate of approval. The
certificate will also fix the ratio of apprentices to journeymen that will be used
in the performance of the contract. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen in
such cases will not be less than one to five except:
a) When employment in the area of coverage by the joint apprenticeship
committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent in the ninety (90)
calendar days before the request for certificate, or
b) When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio
of one to five, or
c) When the trade can show that it is replacing at least 1/30 of its
membership through apprenticeship training on an annual basis
state-wide or locally, or
d) When the Contractor provides evidence that the Contractor employs
registered apprentices on all of his contracts on an annual average of
not less than one apprentice to eight journeymen.
The Contractor is required to make contributions to funds established for the
administration of apprenticeship programs if the Contractor employs registered
apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such contracts and
if other contractors on the public works site are making such contributions.
The Contractor and any subcontractor will comply with Labor Code §§ 1777.5
and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices.
Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules and other
requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations,

ex-officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or
from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices.
7-2.4 RECORD OF WAGES PAID: INSPECTION
Every Contractor and subcontractor will keep an accurate certified payroll
records showing the name, occupation, and the actual per diem wages paid to
each worker employed in connection with the Work. The record will be kept
open at all reasonable hours to the inspection of the body awarding the contract
and to the Division of Labor Law Enforcement. If requested by the City, the
Contractor will provide copies of the records at its cost.

will contain no special limitations on the scope or protection afforded to the City,
its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.
The Contractor's insurance coverage will be primary insurance as respects the

to the existing improvements and will match such improvements in finish and
dimensions unless otherwise specified.
7-10 PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND SAFETY
The following requirement is added to Section 7-10:
Unless otherwise specified all traffic control will be performed in accordance
with the Work Area Traffic Control Handbook (WATCH) Latest Edition,
published by Building News, 3055 Overland Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90034,
telephone 310-474-7771.
7-10.1 TRAFFIC AND ACCESS
The Contractor will notify the occupants of all affected properties at least 48
hours before any temporary obstruction of access. Vehicular access to property
line will be maintained except as required for construction for a reasonable
period of time. No overnight closure of any driveway will be allowed except as

Where access to driveway or street crossings need to be maintained, minimum
1 1/4 inch thick steel plating will be used to bridge the trench. All steel plating
will have temporary asphalt concrete 1:12 minimum sloped ramps to assist
vehicles to cross comfortably over the plates and have a non-skid surface.
Plates subject to vehicle high traffic speeds and in residential areas will be
secured by welding at the discretion of the Engineer.
7-10.5 PROTECTION OF THE PUBLIC
It is part of the service required of the Contractor to make whatever provisions
are necessary to protect the public. The Contractor will use foresight and will
take such steps and precautions as his operations warrant to protect the public
from danger, loss of life or loss of property, which would result from interruption
or contamination of public water supply, interruption of other public service, or
from the failure of partly completed work or partially removed facilities. Unusual
conditions may arise on the Project which will require that immediate and
unusual provisions be made to protect the public from danger or loss of life, or
damage to life and property, due directly or indirectly to prosecution of work
under this contract.
Whenever, in the opinion of the Engineer, an emergency exists against which
the Contractor has not taken sufficient precaution for the public safety,
protection of utilities and protection of adjacent structures or property, which
may be damaged by the Contractor's operations and when, in the opinion of
the Engineer, immediate action will be considered necessary in order to protect
the public or property due to the Contractor's operations under this contract,
the Engineer will order the Contractor to provide a remedy for the unsafe
condition. If the Contractor fails to act on the situation immediately, the
Engineer may provide suitable protection to said interests by causing such work

to be done and material to be furnished as, in the opinion of the Engineer, may
seem reasonable and necessary.
The cost and expense of said labor and material, together with the cost and
expense of such repairs as are deemed necessary, will be borne by the
Contractor. All expenses incurred by the City for emergency repairs will be
deducted from the progress payments and the final payment due to the
Contractor. Such remedial measures by the City will not relieve the Contractor
from full responsibility for public safety.
7-15 HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
The following Subsection will be added to Section 7 of the Greenbook:
For any excavation, which extends more than four feet below existing grade,
the Contractor will promptly, and before the conditions are disturbed, notify the
Engineer, in writing, of 1) any material that the Contractor believes may be
hazardous waste, as defined in Health and Safety Code § 25117, which is
required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in
accordance with provisions of existing law, 2) subsurface or latent physical
conditions at the site differing from those indicated, or 3) unknown physical
conditions at the site of any unusual nature, different materially from those
ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the
character provided for in the Contract Documents.
After receiving notice from the Contractor, the Engineer will promptly
investigate any condition identified by the Contractor as being hazardous. The
rights and obligations of the City and the Contractor with regard to such
conditions (including, without limitation, the procedures for procuring change
orders and filing claims) will be specified by the provisions of Subsection 3-4
(Changed Conditions) of the Greenbook.
If a dispute arises between the City and the Contractor whether the conditions
materially differ, involve hazardous waste, or cause a change in the
Contractor's cost or time required for performance of the work, the Contractor
will not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided for by the
contract, but will proceed with all work to be performed under the contract. The
Contractor will retain all rights provided by Subsection 3-5, Disputed Work, of
the Greenbook.
If the Engineer determines that material called to the Engineer's attention by
the Contractor is hazardous waste, or if the Engineer otherwise discovers the
existence of hazardous waste, the Contractor will be responsible for removal
and disposal of the hazardous waste by qualified personnel and appropriate
equipment in the manner required by law as directed by the Engineer, subject
to the provisions of Section 3 (Changes in Work) of the Greenbook.

9-2 LUMP SUM WORK
Subsection 9-2, Lump Sum Work, of the Greenbook is deleted in its entirety
and replaced by the following:
Items for which quantities are indicated as "Lump Sum," "L.S.," or "Job" will be
paid for at the price indicated in the Proposal. Such payment will be full
compensation for all costs for labor, equipment, materials and plant necessary
to furnish, construct and install the lump sum item of work, complete, in place,
and for all necessary appurtenant work, including, but not limited to, all
necessary cutting, patching, repair and modification of existing facilities, and
clean up of site.
Contractor will furnish three copies of a detailed schedule, which breaks down
the lump sum work into its component parts and cost for each part, in a form
and sufficiently detailed as to satisfy Engineer that it correctly represents a
reasonable apportionment of the lump sum. This schedule is subject to
approval by Engineer as to both the components into which the lump sum item
is broken down, and the proportion of cost attributable to each component.
This schedule will be the basis for progress payments for the lump sum work..
9-3.2 PARTIAL AND FINAL PAYMENTS
The text of Subsection 9-3.2 of the Standard Specifications is deleted and
replaced with the following:
The closure date for the purpose of making partial progress payments will be
the last working day of each month. The Contractor will prepare the partial
payment invoice with measurement of the work performed through the closure
date and submit it to the CITY for approval.
When work is complete, the Contractor will determine the final quantities of the
work performed and prepare the final progress payment, and submit it to the
Engineer for approval.
It will take a minimum of thirty-five (35) calendar days from the date of
approving the Contractor's invoice to make the payment to the Contractor.
However, payments will be withheld pending receipt of any outstanding reports
required by the contract documents, or legal release of filed Stop Payment
Notices against the Contractor. In addition, the final progress payment will not
be released until the Contractor returns the control set of Plans and
Specifications showing the as -built conditions.
The full five percent (5%) retention will be deducted from all progress
KHB20151022
Page 34 of 36
Agreement No. 6765
payments. The Contractor will make a payment request for the retained
amount, for approval by the City, upon field acceptance of the work by the City
Engineer. The City Engineer upon field acceptance and receipt of the final as -
built plans and any other reports or documents required to be provided by the
Contractor will process a recommendation to the City Council for acceptance
of the work. Not less than thirty-five (35) calendar days from the City Council
acceptance of the work, the Contractor's final payment will be made provided
Stop Payment Notices or other claims have not been filed against the
Contractor and/or the City by material suppliers, sub -contractors, other
governmental agencies, and private property owners. Until these Stop
Payment Notices are released and claims are resolved the stop payment/claim
amount will be withheld from the final payment.
The Contractor, however, may receive interest on the retention for the length
of construction, or receive the retention itself as long as the retention is
substituted with escrow holder surety or equal value.
At the request and expense of the Contractor, surety equivalent to the retention
may be deposited with the State Treasurer, or a State or Federally chartered
bank, as the escrow agent, who will pay such surety to the Contractor upon
satisfactory completion of the contract.
Pursuant to PCC § 22300, the Contractor may substitute securities for retention
monies held by the City or request that the City place such monies into an
escrow account. The Contractor is notified, pursuant to PCC § 22300, that any
such election will be at the Contractor's own expense and will include costs
incurred by the City to accommodate the Contractor's request.
Progress payment paid by the City as contemplated herein, will be contingent
upon the Contractor submitting, in addition to any additional documents, an
updated Contract Schedule in the form prescribed by these Contract
Documents. Failure of the Contractor to submit an acceptable updated Contract
Schedule will result in the City withholding partial payment, without liability to
the City, until such an acceptable updated Contract Schedule is submitted.
Nothing herein will allow the Contractor to suspend or slow progress of the
Work.
A City Council resolution established a Project Payment Account, encumbered
money in the current budget, and assigned that money to the Project Payment
Account which is the sole source of funds available for payment of the Contract
Sum. Contractor understands and agrees that Contractor will be paid only from
this special fund and if for any reason this fund is not sufficient to pay
Contractor, Contractor will not be entitled to payment. The availability of money
in this fund, and City's ability to draw from this fund, are conditions precedent
to City's obligation to make payments to Contractor.

Before receiving final payment, the Contractor will execute a "Release on
Contract" form which will operate as, and will be a release to the City, the City
Council, and each member of the City Council and their agencies, from all
claims and liability to the Contractor for anything done or furnished for, or
relating to, the work or for any act of neglect of the City of any person relating
to or affecting the work, except the claim against the City for the remainder, if
any there be, of the amounts kept or retained as provided in Subsections 9-3
of the Standard Specifications and except for any unsettled claims listed on
said form which have been filed in compliance with the requirements for making
claims.
