1.3.5
Verification of Dimensions
The Contractor shall become familiar with all details of the work, verify
all dimensions in the field, and shall advise the Contracting Officer of
any discrepancies before performing the work. Because of the small scale
of the drawings, it is not possible to detail all runs and indicate all
required offsets, fittings, and accessories. Structural and finish
conditions affecting the work shall be investigated, the work arranged
accordingly as required, and the fittings and accessories required to meet
such conditions shall be furnished. The plans are generally diagrammatic
and the work of the different trades shall be coordinated so interference
between conduit, piping, equipment, architectural, and structural work will
be avoided. Building design modifications necessitated by the proposed
equipment shall be the responsibility of the Contractor and shall be
approved before proceeding with the work.
1.3.6
Welding
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Where pipeline, structural, or other welding
is required on the same project, tests will be
required accordingly. Testing may be by the coupon
method as prescribed in the welding code or by
special radiographic methods.
**************************************************************************
All welding shall be done in accordance with qualified procedures using
performance-qualified welders and welding operators. Procedures and
