1.6 PROJECT CONDITIONS
A. _ Interruption of Existing Utilities: Do not interrupt any utility serving facilities occupied
by Owner or others unless permitted under the following conditions and then only after
arranging to provide temporary utility according to requirements indicated:
1. Notify Construction Manager and Owner no fewer than two working days in
advance of proposed interruption of utility.
2. Do not proceed with interruption of utility without Construction Manager's
written permission.
Project-Site Information: A geotechnical report has been prepared for this Project and
is available for information only. The opinions expressed in this report are those of
geotechnical engineer and represent interpretations of subsoil conditions, tests, and
results of analyses conducted by geotechnical engineer. Owner will not be responsible
for interpretations or conclusions drawn from this data.
1. | Make additional test borings and conduct other exploratory operations necessary
for dewatering.
2. The geotechnical report is included elsewhere in the Project Manual.
Survey Work: Engage a qualified land surveyor or professional engineer to survey
adjacent existing buildings, structures, and site improvements, establishing exact
elevations at fixed points to act as benchmarks. Clearly identify benchmarks and record
existing elevations.
1. During dewatering, regularly resurvey benchmarks, maintaining an accurate log
of surveyed elevations for comparison with original elevations. Promptly notify
Architect if changes in elevations occur or if cracks, sags, or other damage is
evident in adjacent construction.
