GC-28. EXTRA WORK: The Term "Extra Work," as used in this contract, shall
be understood to mean and include all work that may be required by the
Owner or Engineer to be done by the Contractor to accomplish any change or
alteration in or addition to the work shown by the plans or reasonably
implied by the speeificatio.is and not covered by contract proposal items,
adn which is not otherwis, provided under "Modifications and Alterations."
It is agreed that the Contractor shall perform all extra work under the
direction of the Engineer when and as so ordered in writing by the Engineer
subject, however, to the right of the Contractor to require a written con-
firmation by the Owner of such extra work order. It is further agreed
that the compensation to be paid the Contractor for performing extra work
shall be determined by one or more of the following methods:
Method "A": By agreed unit prices; or
Method "B"t By agreed lump sum; or
Method "C": If neither Method "A" nor Method "B" can be agreed upon
before the extra work is started, the Contractor shall

forces ird/:)r tYe C-in'r =;;t.~r s}',-.11 ha paid 'hi subeon-
tractor's field cast of the w.•a-k plus twenty-
five per cent (2~:4) for work which is performed by his
subcontract.cr or ~;_:contractors.
Where extra work is performed under mF--hod "C", the term actual field cost
of such extra work is hereby d.~fin=d Le and shall include! (a) The pay-
roll cost for all workman, such aF, f.rem:n, mechir,ics, craftsmen, and
laborers; (ti)the cost of all materials and supplies not furnished by the
owner; (c) rental for all power-driven eeluip?,ent at agreed-upon rates for
the time actually employed or usftl in the performance of the extra work;
(d) transportation charges necessir.ily inc~;rred in connection with any
equipment authorized by the Engile~r for use on said extra work and which
is not already on the job; (e) all power, fuel, lubricants, water, and

direct result cf such extra work, including sales or use taxes on materials,
payroll taxes, and the additional prenil.:ns for construction bonds, workmen's
compensation, public liability and property dantage, and other insurance
required by the contract where the prexiu_^rs t:her6for are based on payroll
and material costs. The Engineer may direct the form in which the actual
field cost shall be kept, and may also specify in writing before the work
commences tha method of doing the work and the type and kind of machinery
and equipment, if required, which shall be used in the performance of
extra work under Method "C". Yf machinery or heavy construction equipment
is required for extra work, the authorization and basis of payment for
the use thereof shall be stipulated in the written extra work order.
The applicable "plus" percentage (15% or 25%) of the actual field coot to
be allowed and paid to the Contractor shall constitute full compensation
for profit, overhead, superintendence, field office expense, and all other
elements of cost not embraced within the actual field cost as herein defined.
No claim for extra work of any kind will be xllo'aed unless ordered in
writing by the Engineer or Owner. In case any orders or instruction,
either oral or written, appear to the Contractor to involve extra work for
which he should receive compensation, he shall nuke a written request to
the Engineer for a written order authorizing such extra work. Should a
difference of opinion ai.ise as to wra4- does or does not constitute extra
work, or concerning the payment thereof, and the Engineer insists on its
performance, the Contractor shall proceed with the work after making a
written request for a written extra work order and shall keep an accurate
account of the actual field cost thereof as provided for Method "C" in
the foregoing paragraph.
GC-29. EXTRA WORK A PART OF CONTRAC•Ia If extra work is performed in accord-
ance with the provisions of this contract, such extra work shall be con-
sidered a part hereof and arbject to each and all terms and conditions of
said contract.
GC-30. ARBITRA eat All questions of dispute arising from or in connec-
tion with interpretation or application of any provision of the Contract
Agreement, and general and special conditions thereof, may be submitted to
arbitration by agreement or both parties in the following manner. The
C
party dccai1 LnQ t u ai:oitration tre.ierrrc3 ,.o iij t , i µ la ;,s as Pa,:
A") Shall notify the other party (referred to in this clause as "Party B")
in writing of su•-,h desire, and in such notice shall specify the question
it is desired to arbitrate and shall nave an arbitrator. If Party B
wishes to agree: to arbitration, it shall so notify Party A in writing
within ten days after receipt of the said notice from Party A, and Party B's
notice shall either state that the arbitrator named by Party A shall act
as sole arbitrator, or shall name an additional arbitrator. If Party Be
in its said noLr.:b, name-s an additional arbitrator, then the arbitrator
named by Party A and the arbitrator named by Party B shall choose a third
arbitrator. If, and only if, such notice shall be so given by Party Be
the arbitration procedure herein set forth shall become compulsory.
The arbitrator or arbitrators shall act with promptness. In the case of
three arbitrators, the decision of any two shall be binding on both parties
to the contract, as shall that of a single arbitrator if the dispute is
submitted thereto as heretofore provided. The decision of the arbitrator
or arbitrators Tray be filed in court to carry it into effect.
If they consider that the case so demands, the arbitrator or arbitrators
are authorized to award the party whose contention is sustained such sum
or sums as they may deem proper for the time, expense and trouble incident
to the appeal., and if the appeal was taken without reasonable cause, they
may award damages for any delay occasioned thereby. The arbitrators shall
assess the costs and charges of the arbitration upon either or both parties.
The award of the arbitrators must be made in writing, and shall not be
opento objection on account of the form of proceedings or award..
The Contractor shall not cause a delay of the work during any arbitration
proceedings, except: by agreement with the Orener. It is understood and
agreed by the parties to the contract that no requirement or statement
herein shall be interpreted as curtailing the power of the Engineer to
determine the amount, quality, and acceptability, of work and materials.
If, for any reason, after the said notices have been duly given by Party A
and Party Be the arbitrators appointed shall be unable or shall fail to
act with reasonable promptness, in appointing a third arbitrator, Party A
(or, if he does not do so within a reasonable time, Party B) may request
a judge of the United Staged ^istrict Court who regularly holds court in
the district in which the sits of the work, or any part thereof is located,
to appoint the said third arbitrator. If it appears to such judge that
the two arbitrators originally appointed were unable or failed to act with
:easonable promptness in appointing a third arbitrator, he may appoint
the said third arbitrator, and such an appoin t-nent shall consitute a con-
clusive determination that the arbitrators originally apointed were so
unable or failed to act with reasonable promptness and, if the said judge
acted at the request of Party Be that Party A did not make such request
within a reasonable time,
If, for any reason, after the arbitrator or arbitrators have been duly
appointed as hazeinabove provided, the said arbitrator or arbitrators shall
be enable or shall fail to act with reasonable promptness in reaching a
decision regarding the question submitted to arbitration, Party A (or,
if he does not do so within a reasonable time, Party B) may request a
judge of thr t; + -1 St.)t:cs District Court wnc regt,larly }:olds court iri
the diatric:r, it •-,`i?ch the site of the work, or any part therecf is located,
to appoint thi .e new arbitrators to act here-indsr. If it appears to such
judge that !_h arhi+r-a'.or or arbitrators originally appointed were unable
or failed to 3-t with reasonable promptness in reaching a decision regard-
ing the que:,tsubmitted to arbitration, he may appoint three new arbi-
trators to act hereunder, and such an appointment shall constitute a con-
clusive detsrrr.4'ration that the arbitrator or arbitrators or.tginally
appointed were so unable or failed to act with reasonable promptness,and,
if the said judge acted at the request of Party B, that Party A did not
make such regi.-est within a reasonable tine.
If, for any reason, a third arbitrator, or three new arbitrators, shall
not be appointed by a judge of the United States District Court under the
circumstarAc-s hsreinabove described; or, if three new arbitrators are so
appointed and are unable or fail to act with reasonable promptness in
reaching a decision regarding the question submitted to arbitration, then
the arbitration procedure shall be deemed to have failed, and the parties
shall be free to assart their rights in the same manner as if they had not
agreed to subnit the question to arbitration.
GC-31. M ;ISION FOR E!ERGENCIES: Whenever, in~the opinion of the Engineer,
the Contractor has not taken sufficient, precaution for the safety of the
public or the protection of the work to be constructed under this contract,

the Engineer, .1n emergency shall arise and immediate action shall be con-
sidered necessary in order to protect public or private personal or property
interests, then the Engineer, with or without notice to the Contractor,
may provide suitable protection to the said interests by causing such work
to be done and material to be furnished and placed as the Engineer may
consider necess;.ty and adequate. The cost and expense of such work and
material so f+.r.nished shall be borne by the Contractor, and, if the same
shall not be paid on presentation of the bills therefor, such costs shall

thereof, unless such assignment shall have been authorized by the written
consent of the Owner. In case the Contractor assigns all, or any part of,
any moneys due or to become due under this contract, the instrument of
assignment shall contain a clause substantially to the effect that it is
GC - 14
agreed that the right of the assignee in and .o any moneys due or to
become due to the. Contractor shall be subject to all prior liens of all
persons, firms, and corporations for services rendered or materials sup-
plied for the performance of the work called for in this contract.

Owner shall immediately serve notice thereof upon the surety and the Con-
Lractor, and the surety shall have the right to take over and complete
the ,fork; provided, however, that if the surety does not commence perfor-
mance hereof within thirty (30) days from the date of said notice of

All cables shall be installed in a good and workmanlike manner. Care
shall be taken to avoid kinking, cutting of the cable exterior surface,
or otherwise damaging the cable insulation in any manner.
No cable shall be installed until the raceways, conduits, or ducts for
the cable or wire have been completely installed, cleaned and inspected.
All cables in each conduit or duct shall be pulled in simultaneously,
Osing suitable cable grips for the larger size cables and suitable
lubrication as required. Cables may be pulled in two or more "hitches"
if desired to eliminate splices, provided that the cable can be handled
without damage or bending shorter than the recommended bending radius.
All cables of #8 AWG or larger, with rubber or rubber-like insulation,
shall be terminated with suitable lugs or connectors. Smaller cables
shall be terminated by lugs, connectors, or cup washers. Lugs and
connectors of suitable shape, size, and type shall be furnished and
G S - 12
installed by the Contractor as required, but such lags and connectors
which are furnished with the e"ipment may be used.
The Contractor shall identify all power, control and instrument leads
with a suitable attached tag marked in accordance with the power
wiring one-line diagram. All such tags shall be nade of nonmetallic
material or shall be so placed that there will be no danger of their
causing short circuits or grounds at bare terminals.
No splices shall be made in cables except in pull boxes, junction
boxes, or equipment enclosures.
Special care shall be exercised to see that the cables do not press
heavily on the conduit bushings where the cables enter or leave a
conduit. If necessary, the cables shall be protected at this point by
wrapping with friction tape or some similar protective material.
The radium of bends in cables shall not be less than seven times the
diameter of the cable. This shall apply to cables being handled
during the installation as well as bends in the installed cables.
Cables larger than #6 AWG, which are suspended in vertical runs
greater than 15 feet in length, shall be supported by Kellems, or
equal, woven grips or by maple blocks. Suitable radius bends, such as
will prevent the cutting of the cable insulation, shall be provided
in junction boxes located at the top of a vertical run.
Ends of spare cables shall be taped and coiled.
Sheet metal enclosures shall have 4 inch air space from water-bearing
and earth-bearing walls.
The City of Denton will supply all materials necessary for the per-
manent electrical installation. Materials may be obtained from the
City of Denton Warehouse, 418 East Hickory Street, between 8:00 A.M.
and SOO P.M. on regular work days.
