DocuSign Envelope ID:78B556CA-0O28-4315-8EF4-948059C1C6F0 <br /> 7 <br /> 1.43 All references in the Contract Documents to the masculine shall be interpreted as including <br /> the feminine or neuter and all references in the Contract Documents to the singular or the plural <br /> shall be interpreted as including the other, as may be appropriate in the reasonable <br /> interpretation of the Contract Documents. <br /> ARTICLE 2. CORRELATION, INTERPRETATION AND INTENT OF CONTRACT <br /> DOCUMENTS <br /> 2.1 It is the intent of the Specifications and Drawings and other Contract Documents to describe <br /> a complete Project in accordance with the Contract Documents. <br /> 2.2 The Contract Documents are complementary; what is called for by one is as binding as if <br /> called for by all. If the Contractor finds a conflict, error or discrepancy in the Contract <br /> Documents, the Contractor shall notify the Designer in writing before proceeding with the Work <br /> affected thereby. In resolving such conflicts, errors and discrepancies, the Contract Documents <br /> shall be given preference in the following order: Construction Contract, Modifications, Addenda, <br /> General Conditions, Specifications, and Drawings. Figure dimensions on Drawings shall govern <br /> over scale dimensions, and detailed Drawings shall govern over general Drawings. Any Work <br /> that may reasonably be inferred from the Contract Documents as being required to produce the <br /> intended result shall be supplied whether or not it is specifically called for. Work, materials or <br /> equipment described in words which, so applied, have a well-known technical trade meaning <br /> shall be deemed to refer to such meaning and to incorporate any recognized standards which <br /> are a part of such meaning if not otherwise defined within the Contract Documents. <br /> 2.3 Miscellaneous items, accessories and work which are not specifically mentioned, but which <br /> are essential to produce a complete and properly operating installation, or useable structure or <br /> plant providing the indicated function shall be furnished and installed without change in the <br /> Contract Price. Such miscellaneous items and accessories shall be of the same quality <br /> standards, including material, style, finish, strength, class, weight and other applicable <br /> characteristics, as specified for the major component of which the miscellaneous item or <br /> accessory is an essential part, and shall be approved by the Designer before installation. This <br /> requirement is not intended to include major components not covered by or inferable from the <br /> Contract Documents. <br /> 2.4 The Work of all trades under the Contract Documents shall be coordinated by the Contractor <br /> in such a manner as to obtain the best workmanship possible for the entire Project and all <br /> components of the Work shall be installed or erected in accordance with the best practices of <br /> the particular trade. <br /> 2.5 The Contractor shall fully complete the Work and shall be responsible for all of the Work <br /> under the Contract Documents to which the Construction Contract applies. If the Contractor is <br /> prevented from doing so by any limitation of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall <br /> immediately give notice thereof to the Designer and the Owner in writing. <br /> 2.6 Standard specifications or manufacturers' literature, when referenced, shall be of the latest <br /> revision or printing unless otherwise stated and is intended to establish the minimum <br /> requirements acceptable. <br /> Revised NETPLANNER v2 <br />
