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.

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;

Section 00 72 00 27 AUGUST 2019
GENERAL CONDITIONS
00 72 00 – PAGE 13 OF 63
7. Unusual delay in receipt of supplies or products which were ordered and
expedited and for which no substitute reasonably acceptable to Owner was
available.

performance was concurrently caused by the Owner and Contractor, Contractor shall be
entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Time for that portion of the delay or failure of
performance that was concurrently caused, provided it makes a request for equitable
adjustment according to Section 7.03, but shall not be entitled to an adjustment in
Contract Sum.
F. Contractor to mitigate delay impacts: Contractor shall make all reasonable efforts to
prevent and mitigate the effects of any delay, whether occasioned by an act of Force
Majeure or otherwise.

SUNSET NEIGHBORHOOD PARK, PHASE 2 BID SET
Section 00 72 00 27 AUGUST 2019
GENERAL CONDITIONS
00 72 00 – PAGE 14 OF 63
event timely performance of any such contract is delayed or threatened by delay by any
actual or potential labor dispute, the Subcontractor or Sub‐subcontractor shall
immediately notify the next higher tier Subcontractor or Contractor, as the case may be,
of all relevant information concerning the dispute.
3.7 DAMAGES FOR FAILURE TO ACHIEVE TIMELY COMPLETION
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.
B. Actual Damages
Calculation of Actual Damages: Actual damages will be assessed for failure to achieve
Final Completion within the time provided. Actual damages will be calculated on the
basis of direct architectural, administrative, and other related costs attributable to the
Project from the date when Final Completion should have been achieved, based on the
date Substantial Completion is actually achieved, to the date Final Completion is actually
achieved. Owner may offset these costs against any payment due Contractor.

1. Contract Sum changes only by Change Order: The Contract Sum shall only be
changed by a Change Order. Contractor shall include any request for a change in
the Contract Sum in its Change Order Proposal.
2. Owner fault or negligence as basis for change in Contract Sum: If the cost of

the extent: Contractor’s changed cost of performance is due to the fault or
negligence of Contractor, or anyone for whose acts Contractor is responsible; the
change is concurrently caused by Contractor and Owner; or the change is caused

(a) Notice and record keeping for equitable adjustment: A request for an
equitable adjustment in the Contract Sum shall be based on written notice
delivered to Owner within 7 Days of the occurrence of the event giving rise

known, of the event giving rise to the request. If Contractor believes it is
entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Sum, Contractor shall immediately
notify Owner and begin to keep and maintain complete, accurate, and
specific daily records. Contractor shall give Owner access to any such
records and, if requested shall promptly furnish copies of such records to
Owner.

equitable adjustment in the Contract Sum; the nature of the impacts to
Contractor and its Subcontractors of any tier, if any; and to the extent

data shall include, at a minimum: the amount of compensation requested,
itemized in accordance with the procedure set forth herein; specific facts,
circumstances, and analysis that confirms not only that Contractor suffered

of the act, event, or condition complained of and that the Contract
Documents provide entitlement to an equitable adjustment to Contractor
for such act, event, or condition; and documentation sufficiently detailed to
permit an 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 Section 7.03C. Failure to provide such additional information and
documentation within the time allowed or within the format required shall,
to the extent Owner’s interests are prejudiced, constitute a waiver of

request made in accordance with this paragraph, unless otherwise agreed in
writing, Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of the Work.

7. Record time of grout through cone at new water demand. ________ seconds
8. Record total water needed to attain 20 to 30 second flow. ________ pounds
9. Record percent of water. ________ percent
C. When fluid grout is specified and additional water is required beyond grout
manufacturer’s listed maximum water, ASTM C1107/C1107M will be run at new
water per grout ratio to determine whether grout passes using actual water
requirements to be fluid. Use new water per grout ratio on remaining tests.
D. Bleed Test:
1. Fill two gallon cans half full of freshly mixed grout at ambient temperatures
for each category and at required consistency for each.

If grout bleeds a small amount at temperatures specified, grout will be rejected.
E. Extended Flow Time and Segregation Test (for Category II and Category III):
1. Divide the remaining grout into two 3 gallon cans. Place the cans into the
40‐degree F and 100‐degree F containers and leave for 20, 40, and
60 minutes. Every 20 minutes remove and check for segregation or
settlement of aggregate. Use a gloved hand to reach to the bottom of the
can, if more than 1/4‐inch of aggregate has settled to the bottom or
aggregate has segregated into clumps reject the grout.
2. Right after the settlement test mix the grout with the drill mixer for
10 seconds. Take ASTM C939 flow cone test of grout and record flow time.
Maintain this process for 1 hour at ambient temperatures of 40 degrees F
and 100 degrees F.
