2. SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS <br />2.1. INTERPRETATION OF SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS <br />The Specifications and Drawings are intended to be explanatory and supportive of each other. Work <br />specified on the Drawings and not in the Specifications, or vice versa, shall be executed as if specified in <br />both. In the event the Work to be done or matters relative thereto are not sufficiently detailed or <br />explained in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall immediately ask the Owner's Representative <br />for further explanation and shall comply with such explanation. In the event of doubt or question arising <br />respecting the true meaning of the Specifications or Drawings, Contractor shall refer to the Owner's <br />Representative for his or her decision. <br />The Specifications may vary in form, format and style. Some specification sections are written in varying <br />degrees of streamlined or declarative style and some sections may be relatively narrative by comparison. <br />Omissions of such words and phrases as "the Contractor shall," "in conformity with," "as shown," or "as <br />specified" are intentional in streamlined sections. Omitted words and phrases shall be supplied by <br />inference. Similar types of provisions may appear in various parts of a section or articles within a part <br />depending on the format of the section. The Contractor shall not take advantage of any variation of form, <br />format or style in making claims for extra Work. <br />The cross referencing of specification sections under the subparagraph heading "Related Sections include <br />but are not necessarily limited to:" and elsewhere within each specification section is provided as an aid <br />and convenience to the Contractor. The Contractor shall not rely on the cross referencing provided and <br />shall be responsible to coordinate the entire Work under the Contract Documents and provide a complete <br />Project whether or not the cross referencing is provided in each section or whether or not the cross <br />referencing is complete. <br />Reference to standards, specifications, manuals, or codes of any technical society, organization, or <br />association, or to Laws or Regulations, whether such reference be specific or by implication, shall mean <br />the standard, specification, manual, code, or Laws or Regulations in effect at the time of opening of Bids <br />(or on the Effective Date of the Agreement if there were no Bids), except as may be otherwise specifically <br />stated in the Contract Documents. <br />No provision of a standard, specification, manual or code, or an instruction of a Supplier shall be effective <br />to change the duties or responsibilities of Owner, Contractor, or Owner's Representative, or their <br />Subcontractors, consultants, agents, or employees from those set forth in the Contract Documents. No <br />such provision or instruction shall be effective to assign to Owner, or Owner's Representative, or their <br />related entities, any duty or authority to supervise or direct the performance of the Work or any duty or <br />authority to undertake responsibility inconsistent with the provisions of the Contract Documents. <br />2.2. DIVISION OF SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS <br />Specifications and Drawings are divided into groups for convenience. These divisions are not for the <br />purpose of apportioning Work or responsibility for Work among Subcontractors, Suppliers and <br />manufacturers. The Contractor is responsible for all Work shown or described, regardless of location(s) <br />in the Contract Documents. <br />2.3. DISCREPANCIES IN SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS <br />2.3.1. Errors and Omissions <br />If the Contractor, in the course of the Work, becomes aware of any errors or omissions in the Contract <br />Documents or in the Owner's field work, he or she shall immediately inform the Owner's Representative <br />in writing. The Owner's Representative will promptly review the matter and if he or she finds an error or <br />omission has been made, then he or she will determine the corrective actions and advise the Contractor <br />accordingly. If the corrective work associated with an error or omission significantly increases or <br />decreases the amount of Work called for in the Contract, the Owner will issue an appropriate Change <br />Order.
