10.3 Except as provided in Sections 10.4 and 10.5 below, bidders will not be released from their bids on account of error.

10.4 Where the prime contractor asserts a claim of inadvertent clerical error in the listing of a subcontractor, City will allow the substitution of the intended subcontractor under the procedures set forth in Public Contract Code section 4107.5.

11.4 More than one bid for the same Contract from any individual, firm, partnership, corporation, or association under the same or different names may be rejected.

Reasonable grounds for believing that any bidder has an interest in more than one b id for the Work may be cause for rejecting all bids in which such bidder is interested. However, this requirement does not prevent a bidder who submits a bid from being listed as a subcontractor by another bidder. Apparent collusion among bidders may be sufficient cause for rejecting any or all bids, and the participants in such collusion may be barred from future bidding.

The undersigned, a duly authorized representative of the bidder, certifies and declares that:

2. T he bidder is currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Labor Code section 1725.5 and is not prohibited from bidding on, being awarded, or performing work as a contractor or subcontractor on a public works project under Labor Code sections 1771.1 and 1777.7, or any other provision of law; provided, however, that if a bidder is a joint venture (Business & Professions Code § 7029.1) or if federal funds are involved in the project, then City may accept a non- complying bid provided that the bidder and all listed subcontractors are registered at the time the contract is awarded.

3. The bidder is aware of Public Contract Code section 6109, which states:
(a) A public entity, as defined in Section 1100 [of the Public Contract Code], may not permit a contractor or subcontractor who is ineligible to bid or work on, or be awarded, a public works project pursuant to Section 1771.1 or 1777.7 of the Labor Code to bid on, be awarded, or perform work as a subcontractor on, a public works project.

Sec. 15) or under the Cartwright Act (Chapter 2, commencing with Section 16700 of Part 2 of Division 7 of the California Business and Professions Code), arising from purchases of goods, services, or materials for the Project. This assignment will be deemed made and will become effective at the time City tenders final payment to Contractor, without further acknowledgement by the Parties.

Section 10. Independent
Contractor. Contractor is and will at all times remain as to City a wholly independent contractor. Neither City nor any of its officers, employees, or (12-2023) Project No. CH-5067-2

CONTRACT

agents will have control over the conduct of Contractor or any of Contractor’s officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, except as expressly set forth in the Contract Documents. Contractor may not at any time or in any manner represent that it or any of its officers, employees, agents, or subcontractors are in any manner officers, employees, agents or subcontractors of City.

Section 11. Indem nification.

11.1 Contractor agrees to the fullest extent permitted by law to (1) immediately defend and (2) indemnify City from and against, any and all claims and liabilities, regardless of the nature or type, that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Contractor, or its officers, employees, agents, or subcontractors committed in performing any Work under this Contract or the failure to comply with any of the obligations of this Contract (collectively, “Claims”). The Claims subject to Contractor’s duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation, all claims, actions, causes of action, proceedings, suits, losses, damages, penalties, fines, judgments, liens, levies, and associated investigation and administrative expenses. Such Claims also include defense costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, expert fees, court costs, and costs of alternative dispute resolution.

11.2 Contractor’s duty to defend is a separate and distinct obligation from Contractor’s duty to indemnify. Contractor is obligated to defend City in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special proceedings, with counsel approved by City, immediately upon tender to Contractor of the Claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is established. An allegation or determination that persons other than Contractor are responsible for the Claim does not relieve Contractor from its separate and distinct obligation to defend under this section. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent defense counsel if Contractor asserts that liability is caused in whole or in part by the negligence or willful misconduct of any City indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability was caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of any City indemnified party, then Contractor may submit a claim to City for reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs in proportion to the established comparative liability of the City indemnified party.

11.3 Contractor agrees that its defense and indemnification obligation under this section, includes the reasonable costs of attorneys’ fees incurred by the City Attorney’s office to monitor and consult with Contractor regarding the defense of any Claims, including providing direction with regard to strategy, preparation of pleadings, settlement discussions, and attendance at court hearings, mediations, or other litigation related appearances. City will use its best efforts to avoid duplicative attorney work or appearances in order to keep defense costs to a reasonable minimum.

11.4 Contractor agrees that settlement of any Claim will require the consent of City.

City agrees that its consent will not be unreasonably withheld provided that Contractor is financially able (based on demonstrated assets) to fulfill its (12-2023) Project No. CH-5067-2

CONTRACT

obligation to indemnify City for the costs of any such settlement as required under this Contract.

11.5 Contractor’s obligation to indemnify City applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of a City indemnified party. If a Claim is finally adjudicated and a determination made that liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of a City indemnified party, then Contractor’s indemnification obligation will be reduced in proportion to the established comparative liability.

11.6 For the purposes of this section, “ City” includes City’s officers, officials, employees and agents.

11.7 The provisions of this section will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Contract.

Workers’ Compensation Statutory Requirements

2. Commercial General Liability Insurance. This policy must meet or exceed the requirements of Insurance Services Office (ISO) CGL Form No. CG 00 01.

There must be no cross -liability exclusion for claims or suits by one insured against another.

Liability policies must be endorsed to name City,
its officials, employees and agents
as “additional insureds” under the insurance coverage.

The policy must state that such insurance will be deemed “primary” such that any other ins
urance that may be carried by City will be deemed “excess” to that of Contractor.

This endorsement must be reflected on ISO Form No. CG 20 01, or equivalent form as determined by City.

Coverage must be applicable to City for injury to employees of Contractor, subcontractors, agents or others performing any part of the Work required under this Contract. Each policy must be endorsed to provide a separate limit applicable to this Project.

3. Pollution liability; or

4. Contractual liability.

3. Business Auto Coverage. This policy must be on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 including symbol 1 (Any Auto) and Endorsement CA 0025, or equivalent forms approved in writing by City.

City reserves the right at any time during the term of the Contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving Contractor 60 days advance written notice of such change.

If such change results in substantial additional cost to Contractor, City and Contractor may renegotiate Contractor’s compensation.

Any such coverage provided under an excess or umbrella liability policy must include a “drop- down provision” providing primary coverage above a maximum $25,000 self -insured retention for liability not covered by primary but covered by the umbrella.

2. Work and Material Requirements

2.1 Use of Premises
(a) Contractor must confine all tools and equipment, the storage of materials, and the operation of workers to areas designated by the Engineer. (b) With respect to any premises, tools or equipment of City made use of in the performance of the Contract, Contractor will be deemed to have inspected the same prior to use, have accepted them in good and safe condition and have agreed to maintain them in a safe condition for the protection of workmen while using them during the performance of the Work.

2.2 Materials Furnished By Cit y
Materials furnished by City will be available at locations designated in the Special Provisions, or if not designated in the Special Provisions, will be delivered to a single location of City’s choice within the project area. The materials will be hauled to the site of installation by Contractor at its expense, including any necessary loading and unloading that may be involved.

The cost of handling and placing materials furnished by City will be considered as included in the price paid for the item involving such furnished material.

2.3 Or Equal
In the event that an item is called for by a specific product or trade name, Contractor will have 35 days after the award of the Contract for submission of data substantiating a request for a substitution of “an equal” item. In the event Contractor furnishes any “or equal” material more expensive than that specified in the bid form, the difference in cost of such material so furnished will be borne by Contractor under Public Contract Code section 3400.

2.4 Samples
Contractor must furnish for approval, within 35 days following notice of award of Contract, all samples as required in specifications together with catalogs and supporting data required by the Engineer. This provision does not authorize any extension of time for performance of the Contract. The Engineer will review such samples only for conformance with design and concept of Work and for compliance with information given in the Contract Documents. Work must be in accordance with approved samples under Public Contract Code section 3400.

2.5 Warranty
(a) The labor and materials bond must remain in effect until expiration of six months after the period in which verified claims may be filed as provided in Civil Code section 9356, and the performance bond must be paid up and in effect for one year after the acceptance of the job by City in accordance with the guarantee required by Subsection 2.5(b), below. (5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 7 -
CAM #4816-7464-0911 v5
(b) Besides warranties and guaranties otherwise required by the Contract Documents, Contractor warrants and guarantees all Work for a period of one year after date of acceptance of the Work by City, unless a longer period is specified, and must repair or replace any or all such Work, together with any other Work, which may be displaced in so doing, that may prove defective in workmanship, materials or both within one year from date of acceptance without expense whatsoever to City, ordinary wear and tear, unusual abuse or neglect excepted. The Engineer will give notice of observed defects with reasonable promptness.

Contractor must notify the Engineer upon completion of repairs. (c) In the event Contractor fails to commence the corrective work within 10 days after being notified in writing to do so by the Engineer and prosecute the corrective work to timely completion, City may proceed to have defects corrected and made good at the expense of Contractor who must pay the costs and charges of such corrective work immediately on demand.
(d) If, in the opinion of the Engineer, defective work creates a condition that requires immediate corrective work, the Engineer will attempt to give the notice required by this Section.

If Contractor cannot be contacted or does not comply with City’s request for correction within a reasonable time as determined by the Engineer, City may, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, proceed to make such corrective work, and Contractor will be liable for costs of such corrective work. Such action by City will not relieve Contractor of the warranties and guaranties provided in this Section or elsewhere in the Contract.
(e) This Section does not in any way limit the warranty or guaranty on any material for which a longer warranty or guaranty is specified in the Contract Documents or on any items for which a manufacturer gives a warranty or guaranty for a longer period. Contractor must furnish the Engineer with all appropriate warranty and guaranty certificates upon completion of the Work.
(f) For federally funded transportation projects, City does not require a warranty and the applicable bonds may be exonerated administratively.

2.6 Liens
No materials, supplies, tools or equipment for Work under this Contract may be purchased subject to any chattel mortgage or under a conditional sale or other agreement by which an interest herein or in any part thereof is retained by the seller or supplier. Contractor warrants good title to all materials installed or incorporated in the Work by Contractor or any subcontractor and agrees upon completion of all Work to deliver premises, together with all improvements and appurtenances constructed or placed thereon by Contractor, to City free from any claim, liens, or charges. Contractor further agrees that neither Contractor nor any person furnishing any materials, supplies, tools, equipment or labor for any Work covered by this Contract will have any right to lien upon the premises or any improvement or appurtenance thereon, except that Contractor may install metering devices or other equipment of utility companies or of political subdivisions title to which is commonly retained by utility companies or political subdivisions. In event of the installation of any such metering device or equipment, Contractor will so advise City. Nothing contained in this article, however, will defeat or impair the rights of persons furnishing material or labor under any bond given by Contractor for their protection or any rights under any law permitting such persons to look to funds due Contractor in the hands of City, and this provision will be inserted in all subcontracts and material contracts and notice of its provisions will be given to all persons furnishing material for Work when no formal contract is entered into for such material.

CAM #4816-7464-0911 v5

2.7 Manufacturer’s Recommendations
Where the manufacturer of any material or equipment provides written recommendations or instructions for its use or method of installation (including labels, tags, manuals or trade literature), such recommendations or instructions must be complied with, except where the Contract Documents specifically require deviations.

2.8 Certificates of Compliance
The City Engineer may require certificates of compliance with the specifications for materials or manufactured items produced outside of the job site. Such certificates will not relieve Contractor from the requirements of providing materials and manufactured items complying with the specifications even though they have been incorporated into the job.

3. Grading Ordinance
(a) All excavation, filling and grading operations in Camarillo are governed by City’s Grading Ordinance. No grading permit is required of Contractor for Work performed within the limits of the project right-of-way shown on the plans.
(b) Materials, exported or wasted outside of the project right -of-way shown on the plans, are subject to all requirements of the Grading Ordinance. The requirements may include, but are not limited to, submitting a grading plan prepared by a civil engineer, obtaining a grading permit, paying the permit fee, posting a grading bond, hiring professionals for engineering and testing services, compacting fills, constructing drainage facilities, and providing erosion protection. These requirements are the responsibility of the owner of the land on which the material is placed. To ensure that neither City nor Contractor are a party to aiding or abetting any property owner to violate the Grading Ordinance, no material may be exported or wasted outside the limits of the project right- of-way until Contractor has furnished the Engineer a copy of the grading permit or certificate of exemption covering such operation on land where the material is to be deposited.

4. Progress Payments to Contractor

4.1 Progress Payments to Subcontractors
Contractor must pay to any subcontractor, no later than seven days after receipt of each City progress payment, unless otherwise agreed to in writing, the respective amounts allowed Contractor on account of the work performed by the subcontractors, to the extent of each subcontractor’s interest in the progress payment. In the event that there is a good faith dispute over all or any portion of the amount due on a progress payment from the Contractor to a subcontractor, the Contractor may withhold no more than 150% of the amount disputed.

In all contracts between Contractor and its subcontractors , the percentage of the retention of proceeds withheld may not exceed the percentage specified in the Contract Documents between the City and the Contractor.

4.2 Substitution of Securities
Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 22300 and upon Contractor’s request, City will make payment of funds retained from progress payments for performance security, if Contractor deposits in escrow with City’s Finance Director or with a state or federal chartered (5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 9 -
CAM #4816-7464-0911 v5
bank acceptable to City as escrow agent, securities eligible for the investment of City funds under Government Code section 16430 or bank or savings and loan certificates of deposit.

Securities may be substituted upon the following terms and conditions:
(a) Contractor will bear all expenses in connection with the escrow deposit made. (b) Securities or certificates of deposit must be of a value equal to 100% of the amounts of retention to be paid to Contractor.
(c) Contractor must enter into an escrow agreement that is substantially the same as set forth in Public Contract Code section 22300.
(d) Contractor must obtain the written consent of the surety to the escrow agreement.

5. Time for Completion

5.1 Payment for Delays to Contractor
Contractor will be compensated when any extension of time is granted for delays caused solely by action or inaction of City, which the Engineer determines materially increases or decreases the costs of any portion of the Work. If the Engineer determines that compensation is not justified, Contractor will be so advised in writing. Contractor may then submit a notice of potential claim to the Engineer, as provided in the Standard Specifications relative to disputed Work.

5.2 Rights of Cit
y to Increase Working Days
If such Work is not completed within the time for completion, the City Council has the right to increase the number of working days in the amount it may determine will best serve the interests of City, and, if it desires to increase the number of working days, it has the further right to charge Contractor and deduct from the final payment for the Work, the actual cost of engineering, inspection, superintendence, and other overhead expenses that are directly chargeable to Contractor, and that accrue during the period of such extension, except that the cost of the final service and preparation of the final estimates may not be included in such charges.

6. Construction Schedule and Commencement of Work

6.1 Proposed Construction Schedule
(a) After notification of award and prior to the start of any Work, Contractor must submit to the City Engineer for approval the proposed construction schedule. The construction schedule must be in the form of a Critical Path Method (CPM) in sufficient logic and detail to show the chronological relationship of all activities of the project, including, but not limited to, estimated starting and completion dates of various activities, procurement of materials and scheduling of equipment, work of subcontractors, interface with work by others, and other tasks required to complete the project. The level of detail must be consistent with the complexity of the project as determined by the City Engineer. The construction schedule must reflect completion of all Work included in the Contract within the Completion Time in accordance with these specifications. A construction schedule showing the project complete in less than the Completion Time will not be accepted. The construction schedule must be cost loaded on a monthly basis. (5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 10 -
CAM #4816-7464-0911 v5
(b) If Contractor desires to make a major change in its method of operation after commencing construction, or if its schedules fail to reflect the actual progress, it must submit to City a revised construction schedule in advance of beginning any revised operations. (c) The baseline construction schedule must utilize the Completion Time included in the Contract and must not extend beyond the number of working days. The baseline schedule must have a date of the first working day of the Contract and not include any completed work to date. The baseline construction schedule must not attribute negative float or negative lag to any activity. If the Contractor intends to complete the Work prior to the time of completion, the intended date of completion must be set forth in the construction schedule and the Contractor must execute a zero -cost Contract Change Order that reduces the number of working days allowed for completion to conform to the intended completion date. (d) Float, slack time, or contingency within the schedule and the total float within the overall construction schedule, is not for the exclusive use of the Contractor or the City, but is jointly owned and is a resource to meet Contract milestones and the Contract Completion Time.

The Contractor must not sequester shared float through such strategies as extending activity duration estimates, using preferential logic, or using extensive crew/resource sequencing. Since float time within the construction schedule is jointly owned, no time extensions will be granted nor delay damages paid unless a delay occurs that extends the Work beyond the Contract Completion Time. Since float time within the construction schedule is jointly owned, it is acknowledged that City caused delays can be offset by City caused time savings. Therefore, the Contractor will not be entitled to receive a time extension or delay damages until all City caused time savings are exceeded and the Contract Completion Time is also exceeded. (e) If the Contractor has fallen behind the accepted Construction Schedule by more than 15 percentage points based on earned progress payments, the Contractor must take steps, including, but not limited to, increasing the number of personnel, shifts, and/or overtime operations, days of work, and/or amount of construction equipment until such time as the Work is back on schedule. Contractor must also submit for review no later than the next request for partial payment, such supplementary schedule or schedules as may be deemed necessary to demonstrate the manner in which the rate of progress will be regained. All cost required to bring the Project back on schedule will be borne by the Contractor without additional cost to the City.

(f) If the Contractor falls behind the accepted construction schedule, as modified by such time extensions as may have been granted by the City for unavoidable delays, by more than 35 percentage points based on earned progress payments, the Contractor will be deemed in material breach of Contract and the Work turned over to the surety for completion within the scheduled time.

(g) Contractor must include in the schedule, detailed information for each operation.

When the project schedule includes multiple streets or sites, Contractor must include detailed information for each street or site. When notifications or parking restrictions are required such dates must be included in the schedule.

(h) Contractor must provide critical path schedules in legible hardcopy format and must also submit schedules with each update in an editable electronic format compatible with MS Project or Primavera as directed by Engineer.

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 11 -
CAM #4816-7464-0911 v5

6.2 Beginning of Work
(a) The delivery to City, for execution and approval of the Contract Documents properly executed on behalf of Contractor and surety, constitutes Contractor’s authority to enter upon the site of the Work and to begin operations, subject to its assumption of the risk of the disapproval of the Contract, as herein provided, and subject also to the following:
(1) Contractor’s receipt from City for the properly executed Contract Documents, including bonds and certificates of insurance. (2) City may, for any reason, order Contractor not to enter upon the site of the Work, which order will nullify the authority of Contractor to enter upon the site prior to receipt of the Notice to Proceed.
(3) Notice in writing of Contractor’s intention to start Work prior to approval, specifying the date on which Contractor intends to start, must be given to the Engineer at least 48 hours in advance.
(4) Contractor must, on commencing operations, take all precautions required for public safety and observe all the provisions in these General Conditions/Specifications and any Special Provisions.
(5) In the event of disapproval of the Contract, Contractor must, at its expense, do such Work as is necessary to leave the site in a neat condition to the satisfaction of the Engineer. If the Work done affects any existing road or highway, Contractor must, at its expense, restore it to its former condition or the equivalent thereof to the satisfaction of the Engineer.
(6) All Work done according to the Contract prior to its approval will, when the Contract is approved, be considered authorized Work and will be paid for as provided in the Contract.
(b) Entry upon the site without authority will be treated as trespassing. (c) Should Contractor begin the Work in advance of receiving notice that the Contract has been approved as provided above, any Work performed by Contractor in advance of the date of approval will be considered as having been done by Contractor at Contractor’s own risk and as a volunteer unless the Contract is so approved. (d) Contractor may start the Work at any time after the Notice to Proceed is issued, but Work must begin within the number of days indicated on the Bid Proposal after the starting date for the Contract, or at such other times as may be indicated in the Special Provisions. The actual date on which Contractor starts the Work will not affect the required item for completion as provided for in the Contract.
(e) If required by the Special Provisions, Contractor must start construction operations on that part of the project designated by the Engineer. (f) Contractor must perform all the Work in such a manner and with sufficient materials, equipment, and labor to ensure its completion in accordance with the plans and specifications within the time set forth in the Contract. (5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS

CAM #4816-7464-0911 v5

6.3 Tempor ary Suspension of Work
(a) Should suspension of the Work be ordered by reason of the failure of Contractor to carry out orders or to perform any provisions of the Contract; or by reason of weather conditions being unsuitable for performing any item or items of the Work; Contractor, at its expense, must take all steps necessary to provide and maintain a safe, smooth, and unobstructed passageway through construction for use by public traffic during the period of such suspension. In the event that Contractor fails to take such steps, City may perform such tasks and the cost thereof will be deducted from monies due Contractor. (b) If the Engineer orders a suspension of all of the Work or a portion of the Work which is the current controlling operation or operations, due to unsuitable weather or to such other conditions as are considered unfavorable to the suitable prosecution of the Work, the days on which the suspension is in effect will not be considered working days for the purpose of calculating Contractor’s time of performance.
(c) If a portion of the Work at the time of such suspension is not a current controlling operation or operations, but subsequently does become the current controlling operation or operations, the determination of working days will be made on the basis of the then current controlling operation or operations.
(d) If suspension of the Work is ordered by the Engineer, due to the failure on the part of Contractor to carry out orders given or to perform any provision of the Contract, no time extension for such suspension will be granted.

6.4 Starting of Contract Time
As soon as practicable after the Contract has been executed by both parties, a Notice to Proceed will be issued by City stating the starting date of the Contract time, which will be as stated in the Notice to Proceed, unless otherwise provided in the Special Provisions.

6.5 Liquidated Damages
The parties agree that time is of the essence in the completion of the Work, and that in case all the Work called for under the Contract is not completed before or upon the expiration of the time limit as set forth in the Contract Documents, as modified by extensions of time granted by City, damage will be sustained by City. As it is impracticable to determine the actual delay damage, the parties agree that Contractor must pay liquidated damages to City in the amount set forth on page 1 of the Bid Proposal, per calendar day for each and every calendar day’s delay beyond the time prescribed to complete the Work. If Contractor fails to pay the liquidated damages, City may deduct the amount from any monies due or that may become due Contractor under the Contract.

7. Subcontracting

7.1 Subcontractors Bound By Contract
Contractor agrees to bind every subcontractor by the terms of the Contract as far as such terms are applicable to the subcontractor’s work. If Contractor subcontracts any part of this Contract, Contractor will be fully responsible to City for the acts and omissions of every subcontractor and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by every such subcontractor. (5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 13 -
CAM #4816-7464-0911 v5
Nothing contained in the Contract Documents, however, creates any contractual relation between any subcontractor and City.

7.2 City C onsent to Subcontractors
City’s consent to, or approval of, any subcontractor under the Contract does not in any way relieve Contractor of its obligations under the Contract nor will such subcontract or approval be deemed to waive any provision of the Contract between City and Contractor.

8. Work By Others

8.1 City’s Right to Award Other Contracts
(a) City reserves the right to award other contracts in connection with the project.

Nothing in these General Conditions/Specifications may be interpreted as granting to Contractor exclusive occupancy at the site of the project.
(b) If simultaneous execution of any contract is likely to cause interference with performance of some other contract or contracts, City will decide which contractor must cease Work temporarily and which contractor must continue or whether Work can be coordinated so that contractors may proceed simultaneously. Notwithstanding any other provision of these General Conditions/Specifications, City is not responsible for any damages suffered or extra costs incurred by Contractor resulting directly or indirectly from the award or performance or attempted performance of any other contract or contracts on the project, or caused by any decision or omission of City respecting the order of precedence in performance of contracts.

8.2 Contractor’s Responsibilities
Contractor must ascertain to its own satisfaction the scope of the project and nature of any other contracts that have been or may be awarded by City in prosecution of the project to the end that Contractor may perform the Contract in consideration of such other contracts, if any.

Contractor must afford other contractors and utilities reasonable opportunity for introduction and storage of their materials and execution of their tasks and must properly connect and coordinate its efforts with theirs. Contractor may not cause any unnecessary hindrance or delay to any other contractor working on the project.

If any part of Contractor’s Work depends for proper execution or results upon Work of any other contractor, Contractor must inspect and promptly report to the City Engineer any defects in such Work that render it unsuitable for such proper execution and results. Its failure so to do constitutes a waiver by Contractor of any claim of delay caused by events beyond Contractor’s control.

3.01 CONSTRUCTION
A. Conform to ACI 301 and ACI 347 except as exceeded by the requirements of Building Code, regulatory agencies, or herein.

B. Earth Forms: Earth forms may be used for footings only where the soil is firm and stable and the concrete will not be exposed to view. Where earth forms are to be used, excavations shall be cut neat and accurately to size for placing of concrete directly against the excavation. Except for bottom of footings, allow for two inches of additional concrete beyond the dimensions or profiles shown on the drawings.

City of Camarillo CONCRETE FORMWORK AND ACCESSORIES
CH-5067-2 031000-3

Construct wood edge strips at each side of trench at top to secure reinforcing and prevent trench from sloughing. Form sides of footings where earth sloughs more than six inches. Earth forms shall be tamped firm and cleaned of all debris and loose material before depositing concrete.

C. Wood Forms: Construct forms of sound material to the correct shape and dimensions, mortar tight, and of sufficient strength, and so braced and tied together that the movement of men, equipment, materials, or placing and vibrating the concrete will not throw them out of exact shape under imposed loads. They shall be so constructed that they may be easily removed without damage to the concrete.

Before concrete is placed in forms, carefully verify the horizontal and vertical position of the form and correct inaccuracies. Complete wedging and bracing in advance of placing of concrete.

D. Form Liners: Position liners on the forms so that grooves and joints are aligned with tie slots. Attach form liners to plywood forms with staples and to metal forms with sheet metal screws or pop rivets. Space fasteners not to exceed 4 inches on centers around the perimeter of each sheet. Place staples perpendicular to the edges. Install staples using a power staple with pressure regulated so that staple heads are driven flush with the surface. Seal joints between liners and joints at top and bottoms of liners with foam tape placed on the back side of liners.

E. Framing bracing, supporting members, and centering shall be of ample size and strength to safely carry, without deflection, dead and live loads to which forms may be subjected, and shall be spaced sufficiently close to prevent bulging or sagging of forms. Concrete out of line, level, or plumb will be cause for rejection of the whole construction affected.

F. Tolerances: Formwork shall be constructed so as to ensure that the concrete surfaces will conform to the tolerances of ACI 117. Camber formwork where necessary to compensate for anticipated deflections due to fresh concrete and construction loads.

G. Chamfered Corners: Chamfer exposed corners 3/4 inch, unless otherwise indicated. Provide molding in forms for all chamfering required.

H. Form Ties: Use ties of sufficient strength and in sufficient quantities to prevent spreading of the forms. Place ties at least 1 inch away from the finished surface of the concrete.

I. Arrangement: Arrange formwork to allow proper erection sequence and to permit form removal without damage to concrete.

J. Joints: Install construction joints, isolation joints, shrinkage control joints and expansion joints as approved. Coordinate location of construction joints, particularly those exposed to view at walls and columns, in advance of concrete placement.

K. Embedded Piping and Rough Hardware:

1. Coordinate with other trades who are required to fasten materials to formwork, or who are required to insert piping, boxes, bolts, anchors, inserts, or other rough hardware, within the forms.

2. Locate conduits or pipes sleeves so as not to reduce the strength of the construction. Do not bury conduit in a concrete slab unless prior approval is obtained from the engineer.

City of Camarillo CONCRETE FORMWORK AND ACCESSORIES
CH-5067-2 031000-4

L. Waterstops: Install PVC water stops to form a continuous diaphragm at each joint. Make provisions to support and protect exposed waterstops during progress of construction. Fabricate field joints in waterstops in accordance with manufacturer's printed instructions.

M. Coating of Forms: Thoroughly clean forms and coat with specified form coating before each use. Do not reuse forms for exposed construction which cannot be reconditioned to "like new" condition. Apply form coating to forms in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. Apply form coating to forms before placing reinforcing steel.

N. Inspection: Before placing of concrete, and after placement of reinforcing steel in the forms, provide sufficient prior notification so that proper inspection can be made.

O. Rejection of Defective Work: Any movement or bellying of forms during construction or variations in excess of the tolerances specified will be considered just cause for the removal of such forms and, in addition, the concrete construction so affected. Reconstruct forms, place new concrete and required reinforcing steel at no additional cost to the Owner.

3.02 REMOVAL OF FORMS:

A. F orm Removal: Do not remove concrete forms until concrete attains sufficient strength to support its own weight and all superimposed loads as determine by testing field cured concrete cylinders, but not sooner than specified in ACI 347.

City of Camarillo CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE
CH-5067-2 033000-7

3.02 CONCRETE PLACING
A. Conveying and Placing: Do not place concrete until the reinforcing steel, forms, or metal decking have been approved. Do not use aluminum tubes or any aluminum equipment for pumping concrete, nor allow concrete to free fall from its point of release at m ixer, hoppers, tremies, or conveying equipment more than 6 feet for concealed concrete and 3 feet for exposed concrete. Deposit concrete so that the surface is kept level throughout, a minimum being permitted to flow from one portion to another. Place concrete in horizontal layers not more than 18" thick within 45 minutes after water is first added to the batch. Place concrete by methods that prevent segregation of materials.

1. Where new concrete is placed against or on old or existing concrete, clean and roughen existing surface to 1/4” amplitude and apply bonding agent to properly prepared surface of old concrete prior to placement of new concrete.

B. Joints In Concrete: Locate joints only where approved, and obtain prior approval for points of stoppage of any pour. Clean and roughen the surface of construction joints by removing the entire surface and exposing 1/4" amplitude of clean aggregate solidly embedded in mortar matrix by sandblasting, chipping, use of an approved surface retarder, or equal. Water and keep hardened concrete wet for not less than 24 hours and slush with portland cement slurry just before placing joining concrete. Cover horizontal surfaces of existing or previously placed and hardened concrete with a 2" thick layer of fresh concrete less 50% of coarse aggregate just before balance of concrete is placed.

C. Compacting: Compact each layer of the concrete as placed with mechanical vibrators or equivalent equipment. Transmit vibration directly to concrete and in no case through the forms unless approved. Accomplish thorough compaction.

Supplement by rodding or spading by hand adjacent to forms. Compact concrete into corners and angles of forms and around reinforcement and embedded fixtures.

Recompact deep sections with congestion due to reinforcing steel as required.

D. Operation of Vibrators: Do not horizontally transport concrete in forms with vibrators nor allow vibrators to contact forms or reinforcing. Push vibrators vertically into the preceding layers that are still plastic and slowly withdraw, producing maximum obtainable density in concrete without creating voids or segregation. In no case disturb concrete that has partially set. Vibrate at intervals not exceeding two-thirds the effective visible vibration diameter of the submerged vibrator. Avoid excessive vibration that causes segregation. Use and type of vibrators shall conform to ACI 309 "Recommended Practice for Consolidation of Concrete".

E. Correction of Segregation: Before placing next layer of concrete, and at the top of last placement for vertical elements, remove concrete containing excess water or fine aggregate or showing deficiency of coarse aggregate and fill the space with compacted concrete of correct proportions.

F. Waterproof Membranes: Perform work adjacent to waterproof membranes to prevent damage to membranes. Arrange work so that membrane is left unprotected for minimum period of time, as approved. Prior to placing concrete, inspect the membrane and arrange for repair to all damage which may have occurred.

concrete perpendicular to column axis at the same elevation on all parts of all columns in the space. Float top neatly to column.

H. Slabs:

1. Float Finish: Place, consolidate, strike off and level concrete slab to proper elevation. Use highway straightedge, bull float or darby. Remove all bleed water. After the concrete has stiffened sufficiently to permit the operation, and water sheen has disappeared, the surface shall be floated, at least twice, to a uniform sandy texture.

2. On-Grade Slabs: Place with maximum 40 -foot edge dimension. Generally locate joints on column lines, exact locations as directed or approved.

3. On-Grade Slab Construction and Contraction Joints: Use types as indicated at column lines and intermediate locations.

4. Expansion Joints: Conform to details and approved submittal. Provide expansion joint filler finished flush with slab surface except for those joints shown to be sealed with sealant.

5. Control Joints: Provide for concrete slabs as indicated. At Contractor's option, "Soff-Cut" saw may be used to depth of 1 1/4" providing spalling or undercutting of the concrete does not occur, and in no case shall slab reinforcement be cut or damaged. Conventional saws shall be used as soon as possible without dislodging aggregate to 1/4 slab thickness. Complete sawing of joints within 12 hours after finishing is completed. If early sawing causes undercutting or washing of the concrete, delay the sawing operation and repair the damaged areas. The saw cut shall not vary more than 1/2 inch from the true joint alignment. Discontinue sawing if a crack develops ahead of a saw cut. Immediately after each joint is sawed, thoroughly clean the saw cut and adjacent concrete surface. Respray surfaces treated with curing compound which are damaged during the sawing operations as soon as the water disappears. Protect joints in a manner to prevent the curing compound from entering the joints.

3.03 COLD WEATHER PROVISIONS
