GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS 01 0000
1.1 SUMMARY OF WORK
A. The project consists of a new 3-story apartment building, to be constructed by a single prime Contractor
selected by Owner. The scope of work includes the demolition of an existing house on the property.
1.2 DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS
A. Construction Documents include drawings, specifications and technical information (catalog cuts, etc.)
prepared by the Architect and its consultants.
1. Abbreviations on construction documents: Materials and products are identified by abbreviations
published as part of the U.S. National CAD Standard. An edited version is available on the Architect’s
website at www.streamcolab.com/standards.
2. Industry Organizations: Where abbreviations and acronyms are used in construction documents (such as
NFPA, ANSI, ASTM, …), they shall mean the recognized name of the entities indicated in Gale's
"Encyclopedia of Associations: National Organizations of the U.S." or in Columbia Books' "National Trade
& Professional Associations of the United States."
B. The intent of the Construction Documents is to include all items necessary for the proper execution and
completion of the work by the Contractor. The Construction Documents are complementary, and what is
required by one shall be as binding as if required by all. Anything called for in the drawings and not in the
specifications, or vice versa, shall be executed as though called for or reasonably implied in both.
1. Items, assemblies, products, or labor not specifically noted, but reasonably required for the completion of
the project and its intended use, and for the satisfaction of relevant codes, are assumed to be part of the
project.
C. Because the Construction Documents are complementary, the Contractor shall, before starting each portion of
the work, carefully study and compare them, as well as any information furnished by the Owner. Contractor
shall take field measurements of any existing condition related to that portion of the work, and shall observe
and report to the Owner and the Architect any such existing conditions affecting the work.
1. Notes on one drawing, section or detail apply to all similar drawings, sections or details.
D. Before ordering any materials or doing any Work, the Contractor and each Subcontractor shall verify
measurements at the Project site and shall be responsible for the correctness of such measurements. No
extra charge or compensation will be allowed on account of differences between actual dimensions and the
dimensions indicated on the Drawings. Any difference which may be found shall be submitted to the Architect
for resolution before proceeding with the Work.
E. Drawings and specifications as instruments of service remain the property of the Architect, and are protected
under common law copyright provisions. They are not to be reused, except by written agreement and with the
agreed compensation to the Architect. If reused without permission, the Architect shall be indemnified and
held harmless from all liability, legal exposure, claims, damages, losses and expenses.
1. Drawings shall not be used for issuance of a building permit unless signed and sealed by the Architect.
2. Drawings shall not be used for multiple or prototype development without written authorization from the
Architect.
F. Unauthorized alterations or additions to a drawing bearing a licensed architect’s seal is a violation of NYS
Education Law, Article 147, and Commissioner’s Regulations Part 69.
G. The Architect shall not be responsible where construction deviates from these drawings or from written
recommendations. Changes to the plan by the Owner and/or Contractor shall be the responsibility of the
persons making such changes. The Owner and Contractor shall hold the Architect harmless from and against
all claims, damages, losses and expenses including, but not limited to, attorney's fees arising out of or resulting
from the performance of the work by the Contractor.
H. A complete set of construction documents shall be at the site, and available for inspection, at all times.
I. The Contractor shall prepare and maintain a complete set of record construction drawings (“As Builts”)
indicating all actual work, modifications and revisions to the work delineated on the constructions drawings,
as well as any concealed construction work. Include any other information which would be helpful to the
Owner.
1.3 DIMENSIONS
A. Drawings are drawn to scale for the convenience of all parties, but do not scale drawings. Written dimension
shall govern.

of the Contractor under and in accordance with the Contract Documents, and the Certificate of Occupancy has
been received by the Owner.
D. Furnish: Supply and deliver to Project site, ready for unloading, unpacking, assembly, installation, and similar
operations.
E. Install: Operations at project site including unloading, temporarily storing, unpacking, assembling, erecting,
placing, anchoring, applying, working to dimension, finishing, curing, protecting, cleaning, and similar
operations.
F. New: Work which has been or is to be installed under the terms and after the award of the Contract for this
project.
G. Provide: Furnish and install, complete and ready for the intended use.
H. Substantial Completion: Stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or a designated portion thereof is
sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the Owner can occupy or utilize the
Work for its intended use. Substantial Completion shall not be deemed to be achieved until after the
Contractor has submitted the Operations and Maintenance Manuals, as-built drawings, and warranties for its
Contract and these items have been deemed by the Architect as complete.

coordination with other trades. See Section 01 9999 below for additional information.
1. Shop drawings: Contractor shall furnish shop drawings for all shop fabricated items and where
customarily required, and submit them for review in PDF format. The Contractor shall be responsible for
checking the shop drawings for accuracy, coordination with other trades, and compliance with the
contract documents before submitting them for review.
2. Architect's or Engineer's approval of submittals shall constitute review and approval of the general
arrangement of components to comply with the general intent of the construction documents and in no
way relieves the Contractor from its responsibility for compliance with the contract documents, even if
such items are not shown on the shop drawings.
3. The Contractor shall check all dimensions and conditions to insure a proper fit under field conditions and
shall make adjustments as required to make parts align. All revisions to shop drawings after the first
submission must be properly identified on subsequent submissions.
4. The Contractor shall perform no portion of the work for which a submittal is required until such submittal
has been reviewed by the Architect.
C. The Architect's review of Contractor's submittals shall be limited to an initial submittal and two (2) re-
submittals. If the Architect is required to review additional submittals because the initial submittal and two (2)
re-submittals failed to conform to the information given and the design concept expressed in the Contract
Documents, the amount of compensation paid to the Architect by the Owner for additional services shall be
deducted from the payments to the Contractor.
1.2 MOCK-UPS
A. Mock-Ups are full size physical assemblies that are constructed on site. Mock-Ups are constructed to verify
selections made under Sample submittals; to demonstrate aesthetic effects and, where indicated, qualities of
materials and execution; to review coordination, testing or operation; to show interface between dissimilar
materials; and to demonstrate compliance with specified installation tolerances. Mock-Ups are not Samples.
Unless otherwise indicated, approved Mock-Ups establish the standard by which Work is judged.
1. Build Mock-Ups in location and of size indicated or if not indicated, as directed by Architect.
2. Obtain Architect's written approval of Mock-Ups before starting work, fabrication or construction.
3. Maintain Mock-Ups during construction in undisturbed condition as standard for judging completed
Work.
4. Demolish and remove Mock-Ups when directed by Architect unless otherwise indicated.
B. See Section 01 9999 below for additional information.
1.3 DELEGATED DESIGN
A. The contractor shall not be required to provide professional services that constitute the practice of
architecture or engineering unless such services are specifically required by the Construction Documents for a
portion of the work, or unless the Contractor needs to provide such services in order to carry out the
Contractor’s responsibilities for construction means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures. In such
cases, the Contractor shall cause such services or certifications to be provided by a professional acceptable to
the Authority Having Jurisdiction, currently licensed in the State of New York, whose signature and seal shall
appear on all drawings, calculations, specifications, shop drawings and other submittals prepared by such
professional. The Owner and the Architect shall be entitled to rely upon the adequacy, accuracy and
completeness of the services, certifications and approvals performed or provided by such professionals.
