shall not be obligated to accept any Early Completion Schedule suggested by the Contractor. The Contract Time

bar chart, or a critical path method analysis, as specified by Owner. The preliminary Progress Schedule may be
general, showing the major portions of the Work, with a more detailed Progress Schedule submitted as directed by
Owner.
4 Owner comments on Progress Schedule: Owner shall return comments on the preliminary Progress Schedule to
Contractor within 14 Days of receipt. Review by Owner of Contractor’s schedule does not constitute an approval or
acceptance of Contractor’s construction means, methods, or sequencing, or its ability to complete the Work within the
Contract Time. Contractor shall revise and resubmit its schedule, as necessary. Owner may withhold a portion of
progress payments until a Progress Schedule has been submitted which meets the requirements of this section.

3.5 DELAY
A. Force Majeure actions not a default; Force Majeure defined: Any delay in or failure of performance by Owner or
Contractor, other than the payment of money, shall not constitute a default hereunder if and to the extent the cause for
such delay or failure of performance was unforeseeable and beyond the control of the party (“Force Majeure”). Acts of
Force Majeure include, but are not limited to:
1. Acts of God or the public enemy;
2. Acts or omissions of any government entity;
3. Fire or other casualty for which Contractor is not responsible;
4. Quarantine or epidemic;

3.7 DAMAGES FOR FAILURE TO ACHIEVE TIMELY COMPLETION

City of Renton GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION
Page 10 of 39
October 20, 2022 00 7200 - 10
Issued for Bid – 10/24/2022
A. Liquidated Damages
1. Reason for Liquidated Damages: Timely performance and completion of the Work is essential to Owner and
time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence. Owner will incur serious and substantial
damages if Substantial Completion of the Work does not occur within the Contract Time. However, it would
be difficult if not impossible to determine the exact amount of such damages. Consequently, provisions for
liquidated damages are included in the Contract Documents.
2. Calculation of Liquidated Damages amount: The liquidated damage amounts set forth in the Contract
Documents will be assessed not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages for breach of the Contract
Documents. This amount is fixed and agreed upon by and between the Contractor and Owner because of
the impracticability and extreme difficulty of fixing and ascertaining the actual damages the Owner would in
such event sustain. This amount shall be construed as the actual amount of damages sustained by the
Owner, and may be retained by the Owner and deducted from periodic payments to the Contractor.
3. Contractor responsible even if Liquidated Damages assessed: Assessment of liquidated damages shall not
release Contractor from any further obligations or liabilities pursuant to the Contract Documents.

regard to Shop Drawings, A/E shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for any errors or omissions in such Shop

Contract Sum shall be based on written notice delivered to Owner within 7 Days of the occurrence of
the event giving rise to the request. For purposes of this part, “occurrence” means when Contractor
knew, or in its diligent prosecution of the Work should have known, of the event giving rise to the
request. If Contractor believes it is entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Sum, Contractor shall

records. Contractor shall give Owner access to any such records and, if requested shall promptly

informed analysis of the request by Owner. When the request for compensation relates to a delay, or
other change in Contract Time, Contractor shall demonstrate the impact on the critical path, in

accordance with this paragraph, unless otherwise agreed in writing, Contractor shall proceed diligently
with performance of the Work.
(e) Contractor to combine requests for same event together: Any requests by Contractor for an equitable

of a request for an equitable adjustment in the Contract Sum, the following procedures shall apply:
1. Breakdown and itemization of details on COP: Contractor’s Change Order Proposal, or request for
adjustment in the Contract Sum, shall be accompanied by a complete itemization of the costs, including

standard methods of calculating labor, material quantities, and equipment costs such as R.S. Means or other
standards acceptable to the Owner and Contractor.
3. Costs contingent on Owner’s actions: If any of Contractor’s pricing assumptions are contingent upon
anticipated actions of Owner, Contractor shall clearly state them in the proposal or request for an equitable
adjustment.
4. Markups on additive and deductive Work: The cost of any additive or deductive changes in the Work shall be
calculated as set forth below, except that overhead and profit shall not be included on deductive changes in
the Work. Where a change in the Work involves additive and deductive work by the same Contractor or
Subcontractor, small tools, overhead, profit, bond and insurance markups will apply to the net difference.
5. Breakdown not required if change less than $1,000: If the total cost of the change in the Work or request for

determine fair value.
6. Breakdown required if change between $1,000 and $2,500: If the total cost of the change in the Work or
request for equitable adjustment is between $1,000 and $2,500, Contractor may submit a breakdown in the

number of craft hours needed to perform the change in the Work by the hourly labor costs. Craft hours
should cover direct labor, as well as indirect labor due to trade inefficiencies. The hourly costs shall be
based on the following:
(1) Basic wages and benefits: Hourly rates and benefits as stated on the Department of Labor and
Industries approved “statement of intent to pay prevailing wages” or a higher amount if

acceleration, or impact, added to the total cost to Owner of any change in the Contract Sum. If the
Contractor is compensated under Section 7.03D, the amount of such compensation shall be reduced by
