<br />
<br />9.2. All materials shall be new and of quality specified, except where reclaimed material is authorized
<br />herein and approved for use. Workmanship shall at all times be of a grade accepted as the best

<br />any manufacturer. When several products or manufacturers are specified as being equally
<br />acceptable, the CMAR has the option of using any product and manufacturer combination listed.
<br />However, the CMAR shall be aware that the cited examples are used only to denote the quality
<br />standard of the product desired and that they do not restrict bidders to a specific brand, make,
<br />manufacturer or specific name; that they are used only to set forth and convey to bidders the
<br />general style, type, character and quality of product desired; and that equivalent products will be
<br />acceptable. Request for substitution of materials, items, or equipment shall be submitted to the

<br />materials, equipment, assemblies or installation methods claimed as equal to those specified. Such

<br />ordered.
<br />
<br />9.6. The Project Designer shall adjudge the equality of proposed substitution of products, materials or
<br />equipment, and its opinion shall be final, unless overridden by the Owner’s Representative in
<br />writing, subject to written appeal to the Owner.
