planned early start and finish times.
2. Predecessor Activity: An activity that precedes another activity in the network.
3. Successor Activity: An activity that follows another activity in the network.
B. Cost Loading: The allocation of the schedule of values for the completion of an activity as
scheduled. The sum of costs for all activities must equal the total Contract Sum, unless

C. CPM: Critical path method, which is a method of planning and scheduling a construction
project where activities are arranged based on activity relationships. Network calculations
determine when activities can be performed and the critical path of the Project.
D. Critical Path: The longest connected chain of interdependent activities through the network
schedule that establishes the minimum overall Project duration and contains no float.

adversely affecting the planned Project Time for Completion

completion of an activity as scheduled.
I. Fragment: A partial or fragmentary network that breaks down activities into smaller
activities for greater detail.

dimensions or quantities, nor substantiating integrity or compatibility, nor confirming
instructions for installation or performance. The Engineer’s approval does not in any way
relieve the Contractor of responsibility for compliance with specified provisions and the
Contract Document requirements.
C. Action Submittals: The Engineer will review each submittal, make marks to indicate
corrections or modifications required, and return it to the Contractor. The Engineer will
stamp each submittal with an action stamp and will mark stamp appropriately to indicate
action taken, as follows:
1. Final Unrestricted Release: Where the submittal is marked "APPROVED", the work
covered by the submittal may proceed provided it complies with the Contract
Documents. Final acceptance of the work will depend on that compliance.
2. Final-but-Restricted Release: Where the submittal is marked "APPROVED AS
NOTED", the work covered by the submittal may proceed provided it complies with
both the Engineer’s notations and corrections on the submittal and the Contract
Documents. Final acceptance of the work will depend on that compliance.
3. Returned for Resubmittal: Where the submittal is marked "NOT APPROVED,
REVISE AND RESUBMIT", do not proceed with the work covered by the submittal,
including purchase, fabrication, delivery, or other activity for the product submitted.
Revise or prepare a new submittal according to the Engineer's notations and
corrections.
4. Rejected: Where the submittal is marked "NOT APPROVED, RESUBMIT" or
"REJECTED", do not proceed with the work covered by the submittal. Prepare a new
submittal for a product that complies with the Contract Documents
D. Informational Submittals: The Engineer will review each submittal and will not return it, or
will return it if it does not comply with requirements. The Engineer will forward each
submittal to appropriate party.
E. Partial submittals prepared for a portion of the Work will be reviewed when use of partial
submittals has received prior approval from The Engineer.
F. Incomplete submittals are not acceptable, will be considered nonresponsive, and will be
returned without review.
G. Submittals not required by the Contract Documents may not be reviewed and may be
discarded.
A. General: Construct and erect complete mock-up in accordance with the directions of the
Employer and Engineer, and in the location determined by the Engineer and as required in
the Contract Documents.
B. Comply with the comments of the Employer and the Engineer with the respect to the
product, colour scheme and workmanship.

during the Contract.
2. Ensure the works are carried out safely and without due inconvenience and nuisance
and without danger to occupants and users or equipment/ vehicles and provide for
safe operation of the existing facilities.
3. Passes may be required for access to all parts of the Site. If required by the
Employer, submit a list of the names of all personnel requiring passes together with
any other related information the Employer or Engineer may reasonably require.
Ensure passes are carried at all times and returned to the Employer when requested
and in any case on cessation of the work of the pass holder.
4. Ensure the interaction of local residents and pedestrians is minimized at all times and
that contractors vehicles do not obstruct access to property and residential areas.
K. Comply with all rules and regulations listed within the Tender and Contract Documents and
the ‘Site Safety Plan’ issued with those Documents. Ensure these rules and regulations are
made known to all employees and visitors at safety inductions, and that these rules and
regulations are displayed where all may see them.
M. Inform the Employer and the Engineer in advance of all safety provisions and procedures
which will require the compliance of the Employer’s and the Engineer’s representatives
when visiting the site.
N. Work notification/permit to work procedures will operate for all work carried out: Permits
must be obtained in advance where deemed necessary from the Employer and/or the
relevant authorities having jurisdiction: Ensure that a permit to work system is also in place
for hazardous activities that may occur within the Site boundary as opposed to operational
areas, this may include activities such as, but not restricted to:

how this requirement will be undertaken and monitored including frequency of checks etc.
P. Remove waste, rubbish, debris, surplus materials and spoil regularly and keep the Site and
works clean and tidy. Ensure that all waste, rubbish, dirt and other residue are removed
from voids and cavities in the construction before closure. Ensure that all roadways and
pedestrian areas are kept clean and clear and free from debris at all times.
Q. Take all necessary measures to prevent personal injury, death and damage to the Works or
other adjacent property or equipment from fire or explosion:
1. DO NOT: allow the burning of materials arising from the works on Site.
2. Designate safe “smoking” areas on the Site and ensure that no smoking is done in
areas other than those so designated.

boundary. Ensure the provision and maintenance during the execution of the works of all
incidental shoring, strutting, needling and other supports and dewatering installations as
may be necessary to preserve the stability of existing structures on the Site or adjoining, that
may be endangered or affected by the works. Support existing structure as necessary during
cutting of new openings or replacement of structural parts. Monitor adjacent structures and
immediately report excessive movement to the Engineer. Allow for the removal of supports
only after new work is strong enough to support the existing structure. Prevent overstressing
of completed work when removing supports.
