Do not change or relocate benchmarks or control points without prior written approval. Promptly report <br />lost or destroyed reference points or requirements to relocate reference points because of necessary <br />changes in grades or locations. <br />C. Promptly replace lost or destroyed Project control points. Base replacements on the original survey <br />control points. Establish and maintain a minimum of 2 permanent benchmarks on the site, referenced to <br />data established by survey control points. Record benchmark locations, with horizontal and vertical data, <br />on Project Record Documents. <br />D. Existing Underground Utilities and Equipment: The existence and location of underground and other <br />utilities and construction indicated as existing are not guaranteed. Before beginning site work, investigate <br />and verify the existence and location of underground utilities and other construction. Prime Contractor <br />and all subcontractors shall field locate all underground services whether shown on drawings or not, <br />including, but not limited to the following: utilities, underground wires, fiber optic lines, cables, conduits, <br />and pipes, prior to initiating any excavation on any area of the proposed site. Provide and pay for <br />underground utility locator service, metal detectors and hand digging as necessary to satisfy above <br />requirement. Provide drawing prior to commencing work signed by the locator service that delineates the <br />underground services. Locator service shall field locate all services with high visibility paint. Maintain <br />ground markings during the course of work and stay clear of underground service until work that may <br />damage underground services is complete. Prime Contractor (s) and their subcontractors shall be <br />responsible for utility services damaged during construction and shall repair at their own expense any <br />utility services damaged by their work. Repair within 24 hours or less. <br />E. Prior to construction, verify the location and invert elevation at points of connection of sanitary sewer, <br />storm sewer, and water-service piping. <br />3.2 PREFORMANCE <br />A. Work from lines and levels established by the property survey. Establish benchmarks and markers to set <br />lines and levels at each story of construction and elsewhere as needed to locate each element of the <br />Project. Calculate and measure required dimensions within indicated or recognized tolerances. Do not <br />scale Drawings to determine dimensions. Advise entities engaged in construction activities of marked <br />lines and levels provided for their use. As construction proceeds, check every major element for line, <br />level, and plumb. <br />B. Surveyor's Log: Maintain a surveyor's log of control and other survey work. Make this log available for <br />reference. Record deviations from required lines and levels, and advise the Architect when deviations <br />that exceed indicated or recognized tolerances are detected. On Project Record Drawings, record <br />deviations that are accepted and not corrected. On completion of foundation walls, major site <br />improvements, and other work requiring field-engineering services, prepare a certified survey showing <br />dimensions, locations, angles, and elevations of construction and site work. <br />C. Site Improvements: Locate and lay out site improvements, including pavements, stakes for grading, fill <br />and topsoil placement, utility slopes, and invert elevations. <br />D. Building Lines and Levels: Locate and lay out batter boards for structures, building foundations, column <br />grids and locations, floor levels, and control lines and levels required for mechanical and electrical work. <br />E. Existing Utilities: Furnish information necessary to adjust, move, or relocate existing structures, utility <br />poles, lines, services, or other appurtenances located in or affected by construction. Coordinate with local <br />authorities having jurisdiction. <br />END OF SECTION 01 71 23 <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 94E7997D-4F29-42F6-A9B4-0A160438D2A6
